The answer is, it depends.
WMV files can be burned in another format if they aren't copy protected and yes, you can burn them to dvd-rw disk.
However a stand alone player, if it's one of the older ones, may not be able to read dvd-rw disks so if you have any doubts dvd-r disks would be a safer choice.
