WMV (Windows Media Video) files are files which can be played on Microsofts Windows Media Player. WMV is essentially a set of video codecs developed by Microsoft for integrating a media framework along with its Windows operating system. WMV files often carry a DRM, or digital rights management, protection. This is quite common because Microsoft is a company which tends to protect its content and provides support to users for further protection. You are likely already familiar with DVDs, these optical devices changed the way we store data and view video media. The file format of a DVD is VOB, which stands for Version Object Base. The complexity of the VOB file format is far too great to explain in this article, but the DVD format is essentially powered by a VOB file. Compact Discs, best known as CDs, are quickly being made obsolete by both DVD and BluRay media discs so it's no wonder it's becoming more and more popular to convert WMV format to DVD. The online video business is plagued by widespread file sharing services and copyright violations. More than likely most videos you download from the web will be in WMV format. If you want to burn all of your WMV movies to DVD what you need is a WMV to DVD conversion program. To do this you will first need to unlock the DRM protection on the WMV, and then burn the newly unprotected file onto a DVD with some sort of DVD creation software. It would certainly be convenient if a piece of software included both the ability to unlock DRM from a file and to burn it to DVD. Aplus WMV DVD Converter can do just that, converting footage to MPEG Layer 2 Video before burning it quickly to a DVD. I am hoping that this article has been helpful and useful to you in converting WMV To DVD. |
