Compressing .wmv files

Lucaio · 07-01-09, 03:56 PM

I have an 80mb wmv file which I need to compress, hopefully get it to around 5mb if possible.

Anyone know how to do this, or know of any good software that can do this?

I need to do it for my IT coursework which is due in tomorrow! I always seem to leave things till the last minuite...

Windows Movie Maker, should be on your PC, you can select the file size you would like when you are exporting the file.

Dont worry about the quality, I just need a video to stick in my project to show that I do have a video in my project.

It was 87MB before and I compressed it to 7MB lol.
