    Hi ...

    I have a "wmv" file (a music video) I want to put onto cd-rom. I understand I have to convert it to either avi or mpeg1. How do I do this?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks

    Ian

    you can convert wmv to mpeg1 with tmpgenc, you'll have to decompress the audio to wav with 'dbpoweramp' http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm
    download the wma v9 codec from the same page.

    as long as you have the latest windows media player 9 series (which contains the MS v1, v2, v3 codecs) you shouldnt have a problem with getting the video loaded into tmpgenc

    if you want to pay for an encoder just to convert wmv to mpeg well theres 1000000 and 1 other programs out there that are able to do this, but if you want a free encoder stick with tmpgenc.

    Thanks for the link, but it doesn't work, however, if you just go to http://www.winavi.com/ then you'll get a link to the converter. Thanks again!
