How to Convert MOV to WMV With VLC

How to Convert MOV to WMV With VLC "VLC Media Player, a free and open-source media player, plays and converts to and from many video formats, including MOVs (QuickTime movies) to WMVs (Windows Media Videos). Unlike other audio/video converters, it requires no other multimedia codecs to compress or decompress your videos. You may want to use VLC to convert your MOVs to WMVs for editing in a WMV-based program, or for playing on your PC's default Windows Media Player (which does not play MOV video). Please note, however, that some loss of quality may occur during conversion due to compression standards.
