This page describes how to make your Video Files playable on a Zune. Other "how to" pages

To play on this device, the file you copy to it needs to be of the correct format. This format is summarized below:

Video Codec wmv2 (WMV), wmv3 (WMV)
Audio Codec wma (wma)
Container avi (AVI), asf (ASF)
Size 320x240

To make the video the correct size, you can edit the preferences, or run vlc from a command prompt.

CLI Example

This is a working example on Windows.

  "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc" -vvv "D:\house20.avi" --sub-file="D:\house20.srt"
 --sout=#transcode{vcodec=WMV2,vb=768,width=320,height=240,scale=1,acodec=wma,ab=96,channels=2}
 :duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=asf,dst="D:\house20.wmv}}

You have to attach the two last lines, there are separated for presentation purpose
