[FFmpeg-user] Converting AVCHD into WMV or MPEG2?

[Gilles]

Hello

This is a newbie question. I did read the documentation section on
Ffmpeg's site, but didn't find the answer.

I just bought a Sony camcorder which saves files in AVCHD.

XP's Windows Movie Maker seems good enough to join videos and insert
some text screens in between.

Can Ffmpeg convert AVCHD into WVM or MPEG2, which Movide Maker is
supposed to support?

Or if you know of another free application for XP that will let me do
the above, I'm interested.

Thank you.
