I had to restore a back-up due to a virus and lost some software I recently installed included a program that converted (I'm guessing it changed the container) a 2GB 1080P WMV file into MP4 in literally a couple of minutes. I've spent hours downloading and installing software but cannot remember what the hell it was called, video converter or something like that? It had a very simple interface. It isn't any of the following :
Free Studio
H264 Encoder
MPEG Streamclip
MKV2VOB
Super
YAMB
Any ideas?

Are you sure? I don't think wmv is compatible in .mp4 container. And nothing would re-encode that fast (it must have been re-wrapped, not re-encoded)

for mkv you could use haali muxer (comes with haali media splitter) , but in that example the audio is different wma v2 has been converted to mp3
you might also be able to use ffmpeg (you can try avanti for a front end)
why would you want to change container? -
