Flippy turns WMA into WMV for free: upload the WMA above and download it wrapped as WMV, sound untouched.

It sounds backwards, but WMA to WMV is a real need: plenty of platforms and tools only accept video, so Flippy re-packs your WMA audio inside a WMV wrapper. Nothing is re-recorded: the sound in your WMA crosses over untouched, and the WMV that comes out is built for old Windows archives and PowerPoint decks that still insist on it.

Why flip WMA to WMV

WMA is Windows' old house band: big in the early 2000s, mostly retired now. It was born in 1999, Microsoft, and its real weak spot is the modern world: Apple devices, browsers and most apps have moved on.

WMV is a time capsule from the Windows XP years: tidy little files with dated manners. Windows Media Video, usually inside an ASF container; once the backbone of DRM movie rentals. That makes it the right destination when what you need is old Windows archives and PowerPoint decks that still insist on it.

Questions people ask

Will converting WMA to WMV lose quality?

No. Wrapping audio in a WMV container doesn't touch the sound itself: it's the same stream in a different box.

Will the WMV file be bigger or smaller than my WMA?

About the same, plus a sliver of container overhead. The audio stream is unchanged; WMV just adds a video-shaped envelope.

Where will the WMV file play?

Windows out of the box; everywhere else wants VLC or a converter. That's the usual reason people leave WMA behind: WMV simply opens in more of the places that matter.

How long does WMA to WMV conversion take?

It scales with length and resolution: short clips finish in seconds, long HD videos can take a few minutes. Files auto-delete within an hour after.
