Full Version: [MAC] WMV-HD - Any suggestions to play or convert?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
As WMV-HD is not nativly supported under XBMC for MAC I'm looking for a solutions.
1) Is there a possibility to play it with something else from XBMC?
2) Does anybody know good quality converter software that keeps the HD image & sound?
Thanks
You could try handbreak, that might work.
Have tried that, but for some reason he can't read the files correctly. Tried it with a WMV-HD of a serie and one 1080p HD movie. Both could not be processed...
DO they have drm that needs stripping from them?
No. I can load the file but once I start the conversion, it stops directly... without actually doing something.
