MOV files from Apple devices contain AAC or ALAC audio within the QuickTime container. WMA (Windows Media Audio) is Microsoft's proprietary audio codec, introduced in 1999 as part of the Windows Media framework. WMA was widely used in the Windows ecosystem for digital music, streaming, and DRM-protected content before MP3 and AAC became universal.
Some legacy Windows-based systems and devices — older Windows Media Center installations, Zune players, pre-2010 car stereos with WMA support but no AAC, and certain enterprise media servers — require WMA format. Converting MOV audio to WMA ensures compatibility with these Microsoft-ecosystem devices.
WMA Pro and WMA Lossless variants offer quality comparable to AAC and FLAC respectively, though their use has declined significantly.
FFmpeg extracts the audio from the MOV container, decodes AAC/ALAC to PCM, and encodes to WMA using the wmav2 encoder (WMA version 2, the most widely supported variant). Output bitrates range from 64-320 kbps at sample rates up to 48 kHz. The output is wrapped in an ASF (Advanced Systems Format) container with .wma extension. WMA Pro encoding is available for higher quality at lower bitrates.
WMA v2 at 192 kbps is comparable to MP3 at 192 kbps — acceptable for casual listening. WMA Pro at 128 kbps approaches AAC quality. Since the source is typically AAC (lossy to lossy), expect a small generation loss. Use higher bitrates (256+ kbps) to minimize artifacts from the transcoding.
