“I'm trying to edit together many .M4V files in Final Cut Express but it is saying they are not supported. Is there any software out there that can convert these to a supported file or anyway to update FCE to support this file type? Any info will be helpful, thanks”

But when they try to put M4V files into FCE, the files are just grayed out and they cannot edit it. What’s wrong?

FCE is professional video editing software designed for advanced editing of digital video as well as high-definition video, which was used by many amateur and professional videographers.
