Thanks for breaking that down - I was slowly working my way through the many options trying to get a .wmv file that worked - you handed me the answer before I reached the "hell with it" point.
Thanks again,
Great! Glad it helped.
Doesn't work on Mac OS X.
WMV 3 isn't available (so I used WMV 2). The small output file contains only the audio, not the video. However, if I choose not to transcode the audio, then the video appears in the much larger output file (but without the audio, obviously).
I've tried a bunch of combinations, with one of two results. Either it doesn't work at all, or you get only audio or only video.
