playing with my arcade cab

[theoldone]

I used "AVI to WMV Converter (TG-16).rar"

I also edited the WME profile that comes with it to 640x480 resolution and best quality, to minimize quality loss...

 

Another tip...

Create and use the following batch file for converting from WMV to XMV:

for /f "tokens=*" %%a IN ('dir /b ^"*.wmv^"') do xmvtool -i "%%a" -o "%%~na.xmv"

Put the batch in the same dir as xmvtool.exe and the videos.

you could also add the "c" switch here after the "-i"

This compresses the audio also with no audible loss, makes files smaller.

 

for /f "tokens=*" %%a IN ('dir /b ^"*.wmv^"') do xmvtool -i "%%a" -o "%%~na.xmv"

 

for /f "tokens=*" %%a IN ('dir /b ^"*.wmv^"') do xmvtool -ic "%%a" -o "%%~na.xmv"

PS. They have to be old format WMV8.

If you struggle i will give you the codec pack and the tools to pre-set up.

HI,

I have a little problem to convert avi to wmv files with "AVI to WMV Converter (TG-16)" it doesn't work!

I have open the batch file called "WMVXMV.bat" to see how it is work.

I saw this :

 

"@REM wmedir = The directory Windows Media Encoder is installed (omit the trailing "\")

@REM idir = The directory containing the input avi files

@REM odir = The directory the resulting output files will be copied to

 

set wmedir=C:\Program Files\Windows Media Components

set idir=C:\WME\Raw

set odir=C:\WME\Converted

 

for /f "tokens=*" %%a IN ('dir /b "%idir%\*.avi"') do cscript.exe "%wmedir%\Encoder\wmcmd.vbs" -input "%idir%\%%a" -output "%odir%\%%~na.wmv" -loadprofile "C:\WME\App\WMVXMV.prx"

 

 

but I don't have in my "program files" the directory "Windows Media Components"

is this the problem?

thank you for your answers

You need to change

"C:\Program Files\Windows Media Components" into the proper folder where Your Windows Media Encoder has been installed.

If You already have WME it should be in Your start menu. If it is not, You need to install it first. Google "Windows Media Encoder 9" and it can be downloaded from microsoft www. It's free tool.
