wmv files

hi all
i am unable to play wmv and avi files in linux...
so , how to convert wmv and avi (audio and video) files to .rm files... exactly..
can you please tell me is there any converter..

Moved to Tech Board.

I think there are music players for Linux that do support those formats. MPlayer appears to be an example.

for these i seek your help

Ummm ... if there is a converter that runs in Linux, then there is a player too, and you don't need to convert.

munna_dude, your not going to find something as simple as you expect. You might have to write your own converter, using other libraries/codecs to read wmv, avi and rm formats. (or read them yourself).

I suggest you reanalyze your situation :)

I am able to play wmv just fine. I am using ubuntu with codecs from automatix.

google "VLC"
