Hi

I have a lot of .wmv video files that I would like to upload to my website, according to my minimum settings I have a 1 hours = 102 MB

This is a large video size for me and I would like to convert it to something like .ra or .ram or .flv or any other extension, so this way I can have a small size and be able to upload it

Please advise for the best or suitable video converter I can use as there are too many to pick any from

Thanks

Hi again MGadallah,

Sorry for not getting to your post sooner, it just slipped by, thanks for bumping it so it could get answered.

I personally use Xilisoft HD Video Converter, I think it works great for converting videos to other formats and it's fast. You can download a trial version at Xilisoft's website. It works great on Windows 7 and Windows Vista as well, I have been using it since it's release!

Thanks for replying.

What about the size for the resulted file?

Please note that I'll upload the resulted file to my website and I am trying to have a small with good quality file as possible.

Thanks

Generally if you encode your videos in H.264 (mp4) format they will be reduced greatly and have great quality but will reduce the footprint of the original file (with the videos I converted, 1GB + were generally around 5xx MB to 7xx MB).

When I converted an High Definition video file from it's original format to H.264 I was able to get it down to nearly 750MB by using Xilisoft HD Video Converter. The High Definition video file I converted was 1.09GB and it ended up being 750MB after conversion.
