How do I convert taped audio or video or digital media files into content that Windows Media Services can stream?
There are a wide variety of digital media file formats, but Windows Media Services cannot stream all of them. In certain cases, you may need to convert your digital media files into a compatible format before they can be streamed. Windows Media Encoder 9 Series is a powerful production tool that can convert both live and prerecorded audio and video into Windows Media files or streams. You can use the encoder to capture audio or video from devices installed on your computer and then convert the captured content to a Windows Media file for distribution. For more information about Windows Media Encoder, see the Windows Media Encoder 9 Series Web page.
