How can I convert AVI to WMV online step by step?

Upload your AVI file, pick WMV as output, adjust resolution or bitrate if needed, and click Convert. Our tool re-encodes video to VC-1 and audio to WMA, preserving original frame rate and resolution.

Why should I convert AVI to WMV instead of keeping AVI?

WMV offers better compression than uncompressed AVI, producing smaller files with minimal quality loss. It's native to Windows Media Player, supports streaming, and is widely compatible with Xbox, Zune, and legacy Windows apps.

Does converting AVI to WMV preserve subtitles, audio bitrate, and color profiles?

Subtitles may be lost unless remuxed separately. Video is re-encoded to VC-1, so audio is converted to WMA with adjustable bitrate; color profiles are generally preserved but may shift due to YUV conversion. We recommend using high bitrate settings for critical files.
