I want to convert WMV files, but only the audio, how ?

[joboxers]

Hi,

i have hundrets of wmv files. I want only change the audio codes of them without to recompress the video. Do you know softwares which do that ( not virtual dub ). If would be good if i coul make batch converting, they are close to 1000 files

Change audio codec to?

Maybe possible with ffmpeg (and a batch script) like

ffmpeg -i video.wmv -vcodec copy -acodec libmp3lame -ab 64k newvideo.wmv

yes i would also likt to change the audio codecs, but with ffmpeg it takes to long, i have near to 1000 files to convert. With ffmpeg i have to do if one by one

Nope, you don't have to one by one as you can batch it. Make .bat file in the same folder as the wmv files file with

FOR %%F IN ("*.wmv") DO ffmpeg -i %%F -vcodec copy -acodec libmp3lame -ab 64k new-%%F

(first try with some few test wmvs and see if it works)

Google "for %% batch file" for more information.
