WLMP usually refers to the movie/file project generated by Windows Live Movie Maker, which is widely used by home video makers. After editing a movie project, the file will be save as *.wlmp by default. However, as WLMP is not a valid video format, it is impossible for users to directly play it with common media players like VLC, Windows Media Player, QuickTime, iPhone, iPad, Surface, Kindle Fire HD, etc. It is nonsense if the DIY movies cannot be played, isn’t it? To fix this problem, maybe you would prefer to convert WLMP to MP4 or other common video formats like AVI, MOV, MKV and more so as to make it be supported by the popular media players.

I would say that’s the smartest and the correct choice! But how to convert .WLMP to .MP4?

If you don’t have one yet, I’d like to recommend you Video Converter (Video Converter for Mac) for its powerful features and practical functions for facilitating the conversion between WLMP and MP4, MOV, AVI, FLV and so forth.
