Hello all -

Great site here...I wonder what took me so long to make this discovery? Excellent!

Ok, here's my question. I recently decided it was time for a website, other than the .mac site I have had for a year or so. I need to be able to offer my visitors the ability to view short video clips in both the QT format and I am thinking WMP format for those with PC's. The question then becomes how can I do the conversions myself? After searching google for a bit I come up with nothing. Or, are there people out there that can do the conversions for me? I don't want to spend much money on software that I will rarely use. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

The Flip4Mac studio (or higher) is the only thing I'm aware of, but it can get expensive. You're better off utilizing a standard format like MPG, so that anyone can view them regardless of platform or OS.
 
VLC can produce asf files using WMV2 video, but the only audio codecs it supports in ASF files are mp2, mp3, and A/52, none oh which are supported by the Mac version of WMP (if you open them, you'll just get the video). I assume they would work on Windows, though, but I have no way to test that.
