Microsoft WMV Question
Is there a way to convert a WMV video to another format (if that's the correct term)?
I get these vids, from friends, in my email, but I can't view them because
my O/S is not quite valid.
and I get this M/S window to verify that it is genuine.
Or do I have to go legit?
Thanks

.I get this window that says:
WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER II
VALIDATE YOUR COPY
OF WINDOWS
two buttons on the bottom of the window:
CANCEL.............VALIDATE
I tried the VALIDATE button and it said that my O/S was not a genuine O/S, which is true.

Dowload Win Amp. (www.winamp.com). It will play all the WMVs you have and won't make you validate windblows.

Videolan VLC player will play just about any video format on anything, and it's free.

But I like Winamp for music and Irfanview for pictures too.
