[MPlayer-users] WMV in MOV container failes to open decoders

[Andreas Gustafsson]

When trying to run WMV-coded video and audio in MOV container the
decoding failes. Probably something wrong in the demuxing, extracting
using mencoder -oac pcm -ovc copy to put it in AVI-container does not
solve the problem.
