How to Convert WMV to AVI on OSX
WMV video files offer great quality, but they are compatible with only Windows-based computer systems. AVI files are more widely compatible than WMV's, including working on both Windows-based and Mac computer systems. If there's a WMV file you want to use on a Mac system, you don't have to run the file first through a Windows-based system. Convert that WMV file directly to an AVI file in OSX.
