How can I record videos for Windows Media Player compatibility?
With 1.1.2 there is only one way to do that: Chose MSMPEG4 as the video codec. Afterwards rename the file to an *.asf extension. You also must not record audio. Windows Media Player won’t be able to play ASF files with an audio stream. This is due to a limitation in FFMPEG in that version. With 1.1.3rc1 or higher you can select a video codec of MS_DIV2 in an AVI file. This will also support an audio stream. Note that MSMPEG4 has been renamed to MS_DIV3 in 1.1.3rc1.
