WTV converter needed
I need a simple freeware demuxer or remuxer for WTV files. Freeware, because we shouldn't have to pay somebody to solve a file conversion problem that Microsoft created.
It should convert it to MPEG or TS without transcoding. That means it should preserve the original high definition resolution. Cyberlink PowerDirector does this exact conversion, but it often freezes during the conversion if it encounters an error in the stream, and does not produce a usable file. WTVtoMPEG also does this conversion, but it costs 30 bucks. I just don't have money to throw around right now. A freeware solution is needed, like every other video tool I use. |

PowerDirector simply extracts the MPEG stream without altering it. It can process a 1 hour recording in 5 minutes or less. Quote:
So, how about it? |

Win7 has a built in utility, wtv->dvr-ms for mpeg-2 streams. Right click on the .wtv file and select convert.
I'm waiting for this also, as I want mkv files, and I want to get rid of commercials. Right now, I record but for archival still have to scene the episode. |
