How to convert recorded non-seekable .asf file to DVD, MPEG or AVI


How many video converters have you tried to record "Dom2" TV Show? Oh my god

I couldn't record it, but I didn't really need that. I just downloaded your recording and reviewed it.

First of all your recorded .ASF has no index, so you can't fast forward it. And most probably it causes many video converters to fail when converting non-indexed .ASF files to any other format.

You may index .ASF files (make ASF files seekable) by using software like AsfBin.

Your Windows Media video has a resolution of 320x240 while DVD videos are 720x576. I seriously doubt that you may get high quality DVD videos after conversion.

When converting you may play with audio/video bit-rate settings. The quality will depend on it a lot.

p.s. And don't create NTSC DVDs 'coz you will get higher size files of the same quality compared to PAL DVDs. Besides it will be hard to watch such DVDs in Russia (and probably any other country except the US).
