Thanks Vivek Gite.

@gemuet
ffmpeg -i input.wmv output.mp4
That will convert the wmv to mp4 with default settings, which may not be the best quality.
For more option on converting to mp4 with ffmpeg check out this post:

Hi,

Is there any tool/command in Fedora to convert mp4 files to avi ?
Or above command will also work for mp4 file.

Thanks,
