Converting MOV file to WMV

[Raydee]

My friend send me a video that is in MOV format and I want to be able to convert it to AVI or WMV format so I can take it in one of my programs to edit it. Right now when I try to drag it in one of my video editing programs it says the file format is not supported. Thanks for the help.

For one free way to convert it to avi you'd need quicktime, which you presumably have and a freeware program called rad video tools. Here's a guide and a link to that program..

& here's another tutorial covering the same idea

ThX Fink. I downloaded the program and it worked but the only problem is when I convert the vid files I lost the sound.
