Looking for lossless MP4 to WMV converter

[Bencuri]

I am looking for a converter software that can convert my mp4 files to wmv. I would like it to do the conversion with no, or minimal loss in quality. I need the same fps, bitrate, resolution, etc. in the output, everything should remain the same, only the encoding should change. I want to stabilize the videos with Mercalli V2, but it only works with WMV input correctly.

What would be the suitable software for me?

Here is a sample from those that should be converted:

Easy mate. Try Windows Movie Maker, part from Windows Live Essentials 2012.

Its make a very close quality file.

Look here (1080p@59,94 at 15Mb bitrate): http://www.mediafire.com/?v8qa8zk8nnvc93h

Some simplier solution would be better. Windows Movie maker struggles a lot until it finishes preparing the mp4 video. It is too much time to wait until I can start converting. It would be better to add everything at the beginning, and leave the program work.

Hi
(It's not really possible/practical to make a 'lossless' conversion from MP4 to WMV.)


To do the job with FFmpeg the command is like this:-

ffmpeg -i SANY0016.MP4 -c:v wmv2 -b:v 20M -c:a wmav2 -b:a 192k output.wmv

(Change the bitrates, if you like.)

Then you can make a preset for WinFF.
