Hi!

Is there any simple tool available which is able to take a .wma file as input and produce an uncompressed .wav as output? Please note that I need a CLI tool to integrate into my own GUI application. Therefore GUI tools or Winamp plugins are useless here. Also I don't want to use MPlayer.exe/MEncoder.exe or ffmpeg.exe, because they are far to bloated for this speicifc task. Furthermore note that I do not want to support DRM'd WMA files. Last but not least the CLI tool should not depend on any external DLL's. So far I found simple CLI decoders like that for all audio formats I had been looking for. But I failed to find anything suitable for damn WMA. There seems to be a CLI tool called "wma2wav" in existence, which basically is a stripped down version ffmpeg. Unfortunately all links I found were broken/down...

I'd need a Win32 binary that works like that:
wma2wav.exe --input "c:\Foobar.wma" --output "c:\decoded.wav"

Any advice would be welcome :thanks:

Dependency on Avisynth and on DirectShow filters -> Not suitable for my "self-contained" application :(

I'd need something in the tradition of OggDec or FAAD ...
