SUMMARY

This article describes how to include a second audio track with a movie. Note that Microsoft Windows Movie Maker works with only one audio track at a time. You can add different audio files to a track and run them in sequence, but you cannot run them simultaneously. This article describes how to add a second audio track that will run simultaneously with the first track.

MORE INFORMATION

To add a second audio track:
  1. Complete your project with the first audio track.
