    I don't know of anything that will do this, but may I ask why you want things in WMV format instead of AVI?

    Recompress the AVIs with a lower bitrate with VirtualDub or similar - the file type doesn't affect the size of the file.

    It all depends on the codec used. Re-encoding is very slow and alot of hassle. Would getting a bigger HD be less effort?
