A simple quick way to convert .mkv to .wmv?

[Kol]

Googling seems useless, full of old information with long winded ways of doing it. Simple question really, is it possible to easily and quickly convert a file packaged as .mkv to a .wmv file that the Xbox 360 can recognise?

I just want to convert my library so the 360 can see it, without having to worry about transcoding on the fly, using another machine.

For information, the .mkv files are usually 720/1080p files I can play fine on my machine but would like to play through the xbox in .wmv format.

Cheers chaps.

I wouldn't expect WMV to be well supported by anybody but MS since it's so locked-down. The xBox can read XviD .avis so I suggest that.

Also, isn't MS working on finally updating WMP to read H.264 in a Matroska container?

Use GOTSend; I've used it to convert for my PS3 and it's very quick.

Thanks for that. Are Ms working on that? If so, that would be GREAT!

Cheers,
