===Windows Vista=== The next version of Movie Maker was released as part of [[Windows Vista]] and β like most Windows components β reported version number 6.0.6000, same as Windows Vista itself. It included new effects and transitions, support for playback on the [[Xbox 360]],<ref name="MovieMakerXbox">{{cite web|author=Microsoft|author-link=Microsoft|title=Explore the features: Windows Movie Maker and Movie Maker HD|website=[[Microsoft]]|url=http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/features/movie-maker.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080803075202/http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/features/movie-maker.aspx|archive-date=August 3, 2008|access-date=May 30, 2015}}</ref> and support for the [[DVR-MS]] file format that [[Windows Media Center]] records television in. The HD version in Premium and Ultimate editions of Windows Vista also added support for capturing from [[HDV]] camcorders. The capture wizard also created [[DVR-MS]] type files from HDV tapes. However, the Windows Vista version of Windows Movie Maker removed support for importing video from an analog video source such as an analog [[camcorder]], [[VCR]] or from a [[webcam]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Windows Movie Maker no longer supports analog capture or webcam capture|url=http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/Help/1a1f1e2f-a62f-4e9a-967b-c074548924aa1033.mspx|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060811222711/http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/Help/1a1f1e2f-a62f-4e9a-967b-c074548924aa1033.mspx|archive-date=August 11, 2006|access-date=August 24, 2013|publisher=Windowshelp.microsoft.com}}</ref> As some older systems might not be able to run the new version of Windows Movie Maker, Microsoft also released an updated older version 2.6 for Windows Vista on Microsoft Download Centre. This version is basically the same as Windows Movie Maker 2.1 and included all of the old effects and transitions, but it excludes the ability to capture video. It can only be installed on Windows Vista and is only intended for use on computers where the hardware-accelerated version cannot run.<ref>{{cite web|date=April 6, 2007|title=Windows Movie Maker 2.6 for Vista|url=http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=34|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120503030820/http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=34|archive-date=May 3, 2012|access-date=December 7, 2012|work=Download Centre|publisher=Microsoft}}</ref> A [[Windows Presentation Foundation]] (WPF) version of Windows Movie Maker was also included in some development builds of Vista (at the time codenamed "Longhorn"), but was removed in the [[Windows Vista#Development reset|development reset]] in August 2004.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.aeroxp.org/board/index.php?showtopic=5424|title="Longhorn" Professional Build 4093|access-date=June 15, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090129183430/http://www.aeroxp.org/board/index.php?showtopic=5424|archive-date=January 29, 2009|url-status=dead}}</ref> After the development reset, the interface for the WPF-based Windows Movie Maker was retained in Windows Vista.
