Adding text to an mp4 video. How?

Anyone assist with this please? I am downloading Windows Movie Maker now, so I'd rather do it this way if possible, rather than having to download more software. I've never touched movie maker before either though.

You need to make sure you have the right version of Movie Maker

As you can see, they cut all the useful stuff out of the Vista/Win7 version.

That's how I've done it col, you add a text on a particular scene and you select how long you want it.

Remember the vid with the footpump ? I added text on that just before the 'incident'

That's how I knew you could do it. I strapped my old smartphone to my throttle cables tonight and went for a ride. I have video of what the rev counter is doing as the bike cuts out. I want to annotate it with an explanation of what's happening and when, before I stick it on Horizons Unlimited asking for more help.

I only have Win 7 and the latest version of Movie Maker though?

I might get you to look at it tomorrow for me if the problem on the bike hasn't been fixed tonight.

Thanks SK

So the latest version is no good for adding text then?
