Is there anything on the face of the Earth for Mac that can convert RM or WMV files to AVI or MPEG?! I really want to use specific clips and or episodes for iMovie but I can't because they're a .rm or .wmv, any chance there's some way to get them onto iMovie?

Thanks in Advance for any help.

Flip4mac can convert .wmv, but it's not free. So does ffmpeg.
For .rm, dont think so.

You also have to take into account if the clip uses the Windows DRM or not. If it does, then no amount of conversion is going to allow you to view the clip on your Mac.
