Convert MPG file to Windows Media WMV?

[Berthil]

I must convert a mpg to mwv file with the Windows Media Encoder for my companies intranet. The Windows Media Encoder can't read mpg files.

Anyone knows how I can convert/capture the mpg file to an intermediate file format, like AVI, so teh Windows Media Encoder can read it?

Thanks

Offhand, direct conversion can be made by VideoVegas3 or Mainconcept's MainActor. Both cost $$$ though.

Else, take the freeway: mpg -> avi with VirtualDub and huffyuv codec -> wmv.

Just a note window media can not take mpeg2 only mpeg1 you can use avi2vcd that will leave a mpeg1 file
