What is WMV?

Windows Media Video (.wmv). WMV is Microsoft's Windows Media video format, common in the Windows XP era. Windows still plays it, but phones, Macs and websites rarely do, so old WMV clips are usually converted to MP4.

Common use: Old Windows Movie Maker projects and 2000s video clips

Output format

What is MXF?

Material Exchange Format (.mxf). MXF is the SMPTE-standard container of broadcast and professional cameras, such as Sony XDCAM and Canon cinema cameras. It carries professional codecs and timecode metadata; consumer players rarely open it, so MXF is converted for review copies.

Common use: Broadcast and professional camera footage

Questions about WMV to MXF

Is converting WMV to MXF free?
Yes, one file at a time: the converter on this page runs in your browser, files up to 200 MB, no sign-up. The Filoshi desktop app ($29 once, for Windows) converts many files at once and has no size limit.
Does converting WMV to MXF lose quality?
Yes, a little. MXF is a lossy format, so some detail is thrown away when the file is saved. Filoshi re-encodes the video at a high-quality setting, so the difference is usually hard to see. WMV is lossy too, so this is a second round of compression; convert from the original, not from earlier conversions.
Is my WMV file uploaded anywhere?
No. The converter on this page runs in your browser with FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly; your WMV file is read and converted on your device and never sent to a server. The desktop app works the same way, offline.
Has WMV to MXF been tested?
Yes. WMV to MXF is one of the 1,841 conversions that passed Filoshi's automated test matrix on Windows 11.
Can I convert many WMV files at once?
Yes, in the desktop app. Drop as many WMV files as you like on the window, pick MXF once for all of them, and each file shows its own progress. The new files appear next to the originals, which are never changed.
