    I don't know if VD can handle WMV, but you might try Stoik Video Converter; https://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=Stoik_Video_Converter.

    EDIT: Looks like if you just need the codec, ffdshow should be able to handle that.

    You need version 1.3 or earlier of VDUB to open wmv/asf (thank Micro$oft for that).
    You are in breach of the forum rules and are being banned. Do not post false information.

    Also, the older version of VDUB only works with the older wmv files.

    Open the WMV in WindowsMovieMaker (WMM) and save as uncompressed or DV-type AVI. Then convert the usual way...

    Don't know if this works with DRM/WMV9 files (haven't tried, but I doubt it). If not, you're SOL, unless you want to shoot your TV screen with a camera.
