Convert WebM into WMV to play in Windows Media Player


Webfm is the movie format if we downloaded this from Youtube. In Fedora, we can convert this file into WMV using FFMPEG. Here is example command :

1
ffmpeg -i Billboard.flv -vcodec libvpx -acodec libvorbis Billboard.wmv

But if we got errors libvpx like thie:

1
Unknown encoder ‘libvpx’

We can solve this “Unknown encoder ‘libvpx’” by remove the ffmpeg first. Then we install :

1
2
3
sudo yum remove ffmpeg
sudo yum install libvpx libvpx-utils libvpx-devel libvorbis libvorbis-devel
sudo yum install ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel
