.WMV file question... please help!


Hi there, I'm relatively new to Linux, but I LOVE it! Not sure what forum this question belongs in... here is my question:

I have a .WMV movie file that I downloaded and appears to have some sort of protection on it. It plays fine in Totem or any other I've tried. If I click on properties, Audio/Video, everything is set as “Unknown”. In the Permissions, owner is root, group is root, etc. I can convert the file to .AVI, but that doesn't change anything.

I want to know when the file was originally created, source, author, anything else you could identify about the file, etc.

Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so, how?

Thanks so much!

Kirby
