There is support for wma or at least wmav1 (Windows Media Audio 1) and wmav2 (Windows Media Audio 2), just not that specific encoding which is wmav3 (Windows Media Audio 3). For a full list of the available codecs and container formats, call ffmpeg with the options -codecs and -formats Regards, David Bolt -- Team Acorn: www.distributed.net OGR-NG @ ~100Mnodes RC5-72 @ ~1Mkeys/s openSUSE 11.0 32b | | | openSUSE 11.3M3 32b openSUSE 11.0 64b | openSUSE 11.1 64b | openSUSE 11.2 64b | TOS 4.02 | openSUSE 11.1 PPC | RISC OS 4.02 | RISC OS 3.11

From the videolan.org features page[0], vlc can decode WMA-3 and WMV-3 files but requires the specific windows DLL, and it supposedly only works on 32bit systems. As to how you'd do so, I don't know.

But what format are these WMA files? There are several versions of the WMA codec, and not all of them are supported under Linux. Are they WMAv1, WMAv2 or WMAv3? The reason for asking is that only the WMAv1 and WMAv2 are currently supported by libavcodec, which means any application relying on it won't handle WMAv3 without using the Windows DLL. And, looking at: http://manual.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Wma-proprietary Audacity relies on ffmpeg for playback and exporting, and probably loading, of WMA files, in which case if it's not supported by ffmpeg, Audacity won't handle it.
