Anyone (GP) know how to convert a .avi to .wmv? There's a lot of shit I know I've done before but never do it enough to remember how.

There are about a thousand ways to do it. The easiest way is to just fire up Windows Movie Maker or Windows Media Encoder.

Alternatively you could use http://www.virtualdub.org/

Movie Maker... That must have been what I used before. Thank you GP and Hacker, I'll check out anyvideoconverter too, sounds useful.

I got a question for you guys, does anyone know what SMV format is? Because that's the type of video file that can only be played on my new Mp4. I'd like to know some converting sites if it's possible and basically what it is.

Please and thank you.
Cool

I love this program Very Happy . I'm a total noob with video editing, so I just let the program do all the stuff.
Never tried converting to wmv though. Not sure where the command is either.

SMV convert tool maybe? A google search also gave me a MTV format, but I'm not sure if it's the same.

Phillips/Gogear Vibe 4gb.

I looked on the back of the list for what type of files it plays and it only takes SMV (Smart Market Video?).

Vdownloader has a side-feature of converting videos.
