transcode it to another format - wmv is a very poor format. It's also not likely to get much attention from either XBMC or ffmpeg any time soon
System: XBMC HTPC with HDMI WASAPI & AudioEngine - Denon AVR-3808CI - Denon DVD-5900 Universal Player - Denon DCM-27 CD-Changer
- Sony BDP-S580 Blu-Ray - X-Box 360 - Android tablet wireless remote - 7.1 Streem/Axiom/Velodyne Surround System
If I have been able to help feel free to add to my reputation +/- below - thanks!

WMV is a proprietory Microsoft format and MS have never released it's spec. The open source community has done sterling work in reverse engineering it, but even so WMV playback is not guaranteed to work.
