Hello-

I own all of the SlySoft apps and they are working great.

My question is how to convert a DVD directly to a single WMV file (some DVDs I have are multiple VOBs and some are a single VOB).

CloneDVD mobile seems to get close but WMV isn't an output option.

I really prefer the WMV format and all my tools work with it (I just like having 1 format to deal with).

Any suggestions are appreciated - Thanks!

SlySoft will be including native WMV support soon (see http://forum.slysoft.com/showthread.php?t=326).

DVDSanta - I took a look and emailed their support to ask a question - Got a mailbox full reply back...

In the meantime, I am using another util to convert to WMV and I have found a file-level video joiner that works great (see this thread for details - http://forum.slysoft.com/showthread.php?t=326)

I'm a total novice to all of this (old fart who got a new toy...please be gentle ;) ).

Is the issue being addressed on this thread the reason I'm not finding a simple way to upload my DVDs from my hard drive to my new Zune???

Rip to a MP4 format with CloneDVDMobile (not sure what profile allows this) and then let the Zune client software convert from MP4 to wmv when it sync's. Its sort of a pain but until wmv is added to CloneDVDMobile there is not a 1 step process using this tool.
