VLC can encode and decode this container. The module name to use at the command line is asf, but you can also use asfh. |
Advanced Streaming Format (or ASF, later renamed into Advanced Systems Format) is Microsoft's proprietary digital audio/digital video container format, especially meant for streaming media. ASF is part of the Windows Media Framework.
Windows Media Files: ASF files have the file extension .asf, but ASF files which contain Windows Media codecs are often given the file extension .wmv or .wma.
DVR-MS: the Windows Vista recording format, should be played (more or less correctly) by recent VLC versions.
