btw, some videos seem to use codecs that don't come with Windows (like AC-3), which won't convert if the server doesn't have that codec.
To avoid such cases it's best to convert your WMV video first to MP4 (which uses AAC audio encoding if I remember well) with the free s/w from http://www.MiroVideoConverter.com. That one also converts FLV files. If it doesn't convert your WMV, see first if that WMV plays or not on your PC. If it doesn't try to convert on some PC where it does play OK (else can use http://MediaInfo.sourceforge.net to find out what codec it uses for video and for audio and what packaging format it is and then go to http://www.free-codecs.com/ and try to find a codec pack that includes filter/decoder for those codecs - HOWEVER BEWARE TO NOT INSTALL CODECS YOU DON'T TRUST TO YOUR MACHINE AND TO HAVE AN UPDATED ANTIVIRUS INSTALLED LIKE MICROSOFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS - ALSO ITS BEST TO MAKE A BACKUP CHECKPOINT ON YOUR MACHINE FIRST TO BE ABLE TO ROLL BACK TO IT IF THE CODEC INSTALLER BREAKS SOMETHING [ALTHOUGH USUALLY RUNNING ITS UNINSTALLER FIXES IT])
