FAQ

I have got some letters and here I will try to summarize them.

You wrote some decoder, where can I find it?

When I reverse-engineer some codec I add decoder to FFmpeg (and soon it goes to other multimedia players) and description to Multimedia Wiki

Do you know how WMV3 video is stored in files?

I just have general ideas how it is stored. See Multimedia Wiki ASF page for details

Help! I have WMV3 sample that does not play {correctly, at all}.

Please follow instructions here. That’s the easiest way to get help (and other people than me may be interested in your samples).

    I tried to play this one using ffplay:
    http://downloads.xara.com/products/xtreme/movies/intro1.wmv

    I got this error:
    [wmv3 @ 0x8485670]WMV3 Complex Profile is not fully supported

    I also tried to upload it to upload.mplayerhq.hu but got a permission denied when trying to make new folder in mplayer/incoming

    Just delete this comment if you find it useless.
