You probably already have the source material you need or something that you can use. You can create .asf files from a variety of sources, including:
- Video. A .mov or .avi file.
- Images. Any image in the .bmp, .dib, .rle, .jpg, or .gif format.
- Audio. Any .wav files that use any ACM codec; that is, any .wav file you can play on your computer (your Windows® 95 or Windows NT® operating system contains these codecs).
- PowerPoint presentations. Depending on the version of PowerPoint that you have, you can either save your PowerPoint presentation as an .asf file, or save your PowerPoint slides as .jpg images and then use the ASF Editor to incorporate these images into an .asf file.
- Live audio and video. Using the ASF Real-Time Encoder, you can turn any live event that can be captured with a microphone and/or a video camera into an .asf file.
