How to Convert DVD to WMV?
What is WMV?
WMV stands for Windows Media Video -- developed and controlled by Microsoft. WMV is a generic name of Microsoft's video encoding solutions and doesn't necessarily define the technology what it uses -- since version 7 (WMV7) Microsoft has used its own flavour of MPEG-4 video encoding technology (not very surprising, it's not compatible with other MPEG-4 technologies..). DivX video format is originally based on hacked WMV codec.
This guide shows you how to convert DVD to WMV format using DVD to WMV Converter. Let's take a look at how it performs:
Step 1. Import DVD Movies
Insert the DVD disc into the disc drive, click the "Open DVD" button to import it. Or if the DVD movie is saved as a folder on your computer, you need to click the "Add Video" button to locate that folder, which is composed of two separate folders: VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS. From the VIDEO_TS folder, select the .vob file to import and then click "OK".
Step 2. Choose Output Format
Extend the "Profile" menu. From the drop-down list of "Profile", navigate to the "WMV Video" category. From the sub-category, Choose "Microsoft WMV Movie (*.wmv)" as the output format.
Step 3. Start to Convert
Now you can click the "Start Encode" button to starting converting DVD to WMV.
Note: The output video files are easily available by clicking the "Folder" button on the main menu after the conversion process is done.
