How to compress DV to windows media file for free??
 

Does microsoft (or other for that matter) have some compression software that will compress a DV stream to some media player format?? ... im looking for free software

Im sure they had something that could do this

Check the microsoft site, they have some nice software that does that for free.

And this is the decoder (maybe even captures): http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

or get it from microsoft updates

WM Encoder or whatever it's called has more features if you need them :)
