importing video SOLVED THANK YOU

hello everyone, this is something i have never attempted.  
i have made a short video using my ZOOM Q-3HD.  
what i want to do is get it into sonar to see what i can do with it.  
i have imported it, however, i get a message telling me "can not play video file not supported". 
so, how do i make the video in a format that sonar can use. 
thanks so much.
jp

    @dion16
    looking at the properties it says MOV file (mov)
    does that help?

    There's a .mov to .mp4 online converter site.
    I just used it a few days ago and it's very good.

    However note that if you want to be able to move the video clip on the timeline,you need to convert to a native Windows video format (e.g., AVI or WMV) and use the DirectShow video engine (specified in SONAR's config file, which you can open in Preferences).

    The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

    Install KLite video codecs. I can use MOV files within Sonar using that.
