Part 1: Know about WTV and MP4<\/h2>\n
First thing’s first, before we start talking about how to convert WTV to MP4, let’s have a better understanding of these two media formats. WTV is a proprietary video and audiovisual file container format, and it is also called as Windows Recorded TV Show. It’s developed by Microsoft, and used for storing TV content recorded by Windows Media Center. Simply speaking, WTV video format just like a container that can extend many video standards such as the MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 standard and audio using MPEG-1 Layer II or Dolby Digital AC-3 (ATSC A\/52). The main purpose of this media format is for Windows programs to recognize the files, so the WTV file is not very compatible with other devices or programs. In order to move the WTV files and make them playable on other devices or programs, we need to convert it to another format, like MP4. After converting it to MP4, you can easily transfer MP4 to iPhone<\/a> or other devices and watch it freely.<\/p>\n
