Does anyone know how to convert a .AVI or .MOV to .WMV using software that runs under Mac OS X, or that is distributed by Fink or some such? Thanks.

you know what? never mind ganim8. it requires ffmpeg (http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/) to handle any of the codecs you're talking about, and ffmpeg will do the conversion without ganim8.

however, it's command-line.

if it looks too difficult, ganim8 *might* provide some kind of useful front-end, but I dunno.

Actually, I have FFusion, which is the successor to ffmeg. But in some ways I thought ffmeg was a bit better -- I'll have to revert back to it. Thank you very much for the tip, you are very kind.

Also, this whole thing is kind of stupid of me to have asked, because I really dislike WMV anyway. I fill silly for asking -- I am trying to be magnanimous towards Windoze users, but maybe it isn't necessary.

Maybe I should just stick to my .MOV and my .AVI and my MPEG-4 and who cares about WMV and .RM. Bleh.

Thank you again very much for your help.

BTW Kerri showed me some pictures from Maryland that I think had you in them.
After all, anyone on any platform can use VLC or mplayer, which both play almost anything.
