bigway 4 #1 March 21, 2007 Does anyone have an easy solution to making a 23mb wmv file into about a 10-20mb .flv file for free? Would appreciate any info. Thanks guys. One other thing, I believe this forum is priceless. Everytime i have a had a techie question this seems to be the place where everything gets solved so fast. Thanks for all the knowledge that is provided by everyone here. .Karnage Krew Gear Store . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phoenixlpr 0 #2 March 21, 2007 You might encode it with mplayer/mencoder. Google for right command line. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pilotdave 0 #4 March 21, 2007 Riva uses ffmpeg to encode, which can't convert the later versions of WMV files. I think it can convert up to windows media 8 or something... can't remember the details. I ran into that problem a while ago. It would just take an extra step... convert to avi (or whatever) and then from there convert to flv. That only applies if the wmv file is one of the latest versions. I know there's a version of ffmpeg out there that can be compiled to convert the later wmv files, but you have to compile the source code yourself.

erikph 0 #5 March 22, 2007 I do a 2-step process too: first I make a lossless avi (resize & preprocess, huffyuv codec), you could do that in the free version of TMPGEnc, and then flv encode. You could do it all at once in premiere, but that's not free (and I don't like working in Premiere, but that's just me of course).blue skies, http://myjumps.blogspot.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
