wmv -> avi/mpeg decoder

[yellofello]

anybody know of a good one?

ive used stoik and media wizard from CDH, and neither has enough options to produce good quality mpegs/avi's (from my experience)

I used TMPGenc Plus, but I think it fucks up quality too.

Sonic Foundry Vegas 4.0 or ULead VideoStudio 7 will do that I think.

No matter what you use...The quality will suck.

It can be made much smaller in .wmv or .mpg format.

ICQ 7800287 if you need help. I'm no expert, but I can probably help you out.

Could somebody explain to me why you should go from a bad wmv video with approx. 256kbits into a format like mpeg which would be used at 1150kbits at a minimum? Make a bad quality much more bad?

[yellofello]

thanks for the tips, gonna try out some of those recommended programs

the quality on the wmvs are actually pretty good, sounds above average and video doesn't get pixelated at all. it's also that certain sites won't list wmv content among other things
