How to convert WMV to DIVX
- Add your .WMV file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .DIVX in a few seconds.
- Download your new .DIVX file.
What to expect
- Full lossy re-encode from the WMV codec to MPEG-4/H.264 in an AVI-based container; converting back will not restore lost detail.
- DRM-protected WMV files cannot be converted.
- Extras like subtitles or chapters are not created automatically; the output carries only what the source provides.
Frequently asked questions
How good is the result when converting WMV to DivX?
DivX re-encodes the video to MPEG-4 or H.264 inside an AVI-based container, and since WMV uses a different codec this is a full lossy re-encode. With a reasonable bitrate the quality stays close to the source.
Why convert WMV to DivX?
DivX is widely supported by DivX Certified TVs and set-top players, many of which play it directly from a USB drive. It also plays where WMV, a Microsoft format, is not supported.
Where will a DivX file open?
A .divx file opens for free in VLC on all platforms and in the official DivX Player. Many living-room devices marked DivX Certified play it without extra software.
What can be lost in the conversion?
WMV-specific metadata and any Windows Media features do not carry over, and the re-encode discards some detail. DivX can hold multiple audio tracks, subtitles, and chapters, but those only exist if present in or added during conversion.
