Convert Windows Media Center Video Recordings To Other Formats

If you use Windows Media Center to record TV shows and you want to convert your recordings to another format, check out the free utility MC-TVConverter.

MC-TVConverter is a FREE (GPL) GUI (Graphical User Interface) for various commandline video converters. It’s mainly targeted to convert recordings from Microsoft Windows MediaCenter, which introduced the new WTV format in Windows7 and Vista with TV-Pack.

While the function this utility performs is self explanatory, it has some additional features which may be useful if you are in the market for this type of application:

  • Conversion from WTV, DVR-MS, MPG, TS, AVI, MP4 and WMV.
  • Conversion to TS, DEMUX, MPG, WMV, AVI, FLV and MP4 (depending on the input format).
  • Supports WTV-HD recordings.
  • Automatically remove commercials from MPEG2-streams
  • Watch folder: converts all supported files in a folder and its subfolders in the background (checks if file is in use and creates a history file to convert a file only once).
  • Minimizes into the tray for minimal invasive appearance.

If this sounds like something you can use, give the free MC-TVConverter a look.
