Converting WMV to ASF (MPEG-4 DMO)

[jorgesousa]

Hi,

i need to convert a WMV file to a ASF file using MPEG-4 DMO encoding

I tried using ImTOO MPEG Encoder, but this doesn't work
I get the encoded ASF file, but doesn't work in my Hand Held Media player

Can someone tell me how i can get this done

Thank you

I used to use imtoo, but it's not stable. Then I found this great video converter software, called <a href="http://www.aoamedia.com/videoconverter.htm">Advanced X Video Converter</a>. To convert WMV to ASF, Add Task > All to WMV/ASF > Select the wmv file as the source > Set a target folder > Check the box "Save as ASF format".

Hi~
I'm also a customer of this product. I do meet some problem during my converting process of .asf files, but I got it after several trys.You may mail to their support team if you need. support@imtoo.com
By the way, I went to their website a few days . It says a new version will be released, and it supports H264 encoding and decoding,faster and more steady.
The more about MPEG Encoder v3.0

simply renaming to ".asf" mat be enough.

The Difference Between ASF and WMV/WMA Files

The only difference between ASF files and WMV or WMA files are the file extensions and the MIME types. The MIME type for a WMV file is video/x-ms-wmv, and for WMA it is audio/x-ms-wma. The MIME type for ASF is video/x-ms-asf. The basic internal structure of the files is identical.
More Information
The change in extensions was made to make it easier for an application to identify the content of a media file. A .wma file extension designates a file containing only audio. A .wmv extension designates a file containing both video and audio.
