[MPlayer-users] wmv files fail to convert

[Louis Gualtieri jr]

I am running Centos 6 64bit

I have installed mencoder, etc and I have tons of codes installed as well! But I get this error when converting:

REMEMBER: MEncoder's libavformat muxing is presently broken and can generate
INCORRECT files in the presence of B-frames. Moreover, due to bugs MPlayer
will play these INCORRECT files as if nothing were wrong!

I am aware that w32codecs do not work on 64bit. Is there any way around this without having to install a 32 bit OS. Correct any of this if I am wrong!
