About OGV to WMV Conversion
OGV uses Theora video and Vorbis audio — open-source codecs alien to the Windows Media ecosystem. WMV (Windows Media Video) is Microsoft's video format using VC-1 (WMV 9) or WMV2/WMV3 codecs in an ASF container. WMV was the default Windows video format from 1999 to 2012 and remains required by many legacy Windows applications and systems.
Why Convert OGV to WMV?
Legacy Windows Media Player installations, enterprise video platforms, Windows Movie Maker, and hardware devices built around Windows Media cannot play OGV. Converting to WMV makes open-source video compatible with the entire legacy Microsoft ecosystem.
This conversion is also needed for PowerPoint presentations on older Office versions (pre-2013) that embed WMV natively, and for Windows Media Center home theater setups.
Common Use Cases
- Embedding OGV content in PowerPoint presentations for Windows audiences using Office 2010 or earlier
- Playing open-source OGV videos on Windows Media Center home entertainment systems
