Ok, so I'm trying to cram as many of my cartoons onto one disc, so I'm chopping off stuff, and I have a couple that have Windows Media Audio V2 rather than MP3 audio so they are like 50 MB larger than the others. I tried to convert it (By setting video to direct stream and audio to full processing, then selecting mp3 as my compression, is that even correct?) but when I go to Save AVI I get an error saying "Error initializing audio stream decompression: The requested conversion is not possible Check to make sure you have the required codec."
I looked at the help and saw something about not being able to ENCODE using WMA V2, but wouldn't I be DECODING it? |

The locking in the WMA codecs inhibits both compression and decompression. It's likely that your file was actually encoded with "DivX Audio," which is a hacked version of WMAv2. Unfortunately, this hack has the same ID as the regular WMAv2 codec and thus output from one can show up as being from the other.

You could try to get a copy of the old, illegal DivX3 codec that was coming with afore mentioned hack of WMA, and install it ...
