How do I ...

How do I :

1. cut wmv file;
2. convert wmv file into avi or mpeg

Does anybody know?

Thx in advance.

You should be able to use TMPGEnc, the same way as if it was an ASF to convert to MPG.

Asftools 2.3 will cut, join & repair ASF and WMV files, get it from their home page at h**p://www.geocities.com/myasftools/

Thx ChickenMan

I tried teh TMPGenc, did not work, must have been the settings.

I will try again..

chickenman: is TMPGEnc free? I'm trying to find some freeware so that I can convert my wmv files to mpeg, so i can burn to disc using nero?

[ChickenMan]

Yes, for making MPEG1 files its free, for MPEG2 its a 30 day trial. From www.tmpgenc.net However, if you search for a older TMPGEnc ver 12a, it has both MPEG1 & MPEG2 encoding for free.

v3 express is out to now which I think is no longer free for MPEG1, there is still a free trial available though.

Must admit I have not tried v3 yet, I hear it is quicker, could simply be explained by the fact that it looks like it now processes in YUY2 instead of RGB24 though.

TMPGEnc Express is faster!
By about 2 minutes in a 2hour avi conversion.
What a waste. I'll stick with 12b for the rare times that I even use it.
Mainconcept beats tmpgenc in all areas, all the time.
