wma codec (encoding)


I would like to encode wav to wma.

Is there any open source codec available for doing that.

I have searched for it but can't get any.

Thanks,

ps: please don't ask me why I want to convert to a M$ rather than flac, faac or mp3. It is just not for me !

codecs

Thank you, I have seen it but I don't know what is in this tar file.

I'll have a lookt at it. But I am surprised not to see any project in SourceForge

Regards

Is it possible to just set up the wma codec as I use already Lame or Flac or FAAC. I would not like to have one of it overwriten by this package.

Thanks for the effort,

Jerome

Yes I can try this. I have already set up wine on my machine.

In fact if it was a command line that would be better. If I have no other solution I'll take this one.

Thanks,
