Question WMV to DivX converter (or something like)

Hello People. Could anyone be so kind and to advise me on how to get some WMV videos to play on my Ps3, I use a flash to transfer it, but the data type is not supported. Maybe you could post a link to download a free converter or something (which works).

Or you could try PS3 Video 9 (also free): http://www.redkawa.com/videoconverters/ps3video9/

What do you mean nothing's working - are the progams not working, what errors are you getting? Can you elaborate please?

My bad - you are correct

Spartan, I enabled WMA playback and played a WMV file fine. What firmware are you on - is it 2.42?
