  2. Try the WMV9 VCM or if that doesn't work, try ffdshow instead.

    WMV9 = WMV3, WMV2 = WMV8, don't think that WMV9 VCM can handle it and wasn't ffdshow's WMV8 support broken? You might have to frameserve.

    Previous codec versions have been included to decode any data you may encounter that has been encoded with those older versions. This package contains the following codecs:
    • Windows Media Audio 9
    • Windows Media Audio 9 Voice
    • Windows Media Video 7, 8, and 9
    • Windows Media Video 9 Screen
    • Microsoft MPEG-4 versions 1, 2, and 3
    • ISO MPEG-4 versions 1 and 1.1
    If in doubt, Google it.

    Virtualdub (later than 1.3c) cannot open WMV anyway due to patent restrictions ??


    The latest version of Virtualdub-mpeg2 experimental reinstates "very experimental ASF/WMV parsing support" AFAIK.
    If in doubt, Google it.

    Yeah the above codecs would be DMO. They would work for frameserving via dshow though.

    It is possible that they have an avi with WMV8. The original poster never said if it was a WMV file or not.
