Convert WMV to NRD

Understanding WMV and NRD file formats

WMV (Windows Media Video) is a popular video compression format developed by Microsoft, widely used for streaming and storing video content on Windows platforms. NRD files, on the other hand, are associated with NeatReceipts digital scanner software and typically store scanned document data, not video. NRD files are not designed for video playback or storage.

Can you convert WMV to NRD?

Direct conversion from WMV (a video file) to NRD (a document scan file) is not supported by any standard software, as these formats serve entirely different purposes. WMV is for video, while NRD is for scanned documents. If your goal is to extract frames from a WMV video and save them as images to be imported into NeatReceipts, you can follow a two-step process.

How to extract images from WMV for use in NRD

1. Extract images from WMV: Use a video player or editor like VLC Media Player or FFmpeg to capture still frames from your WMV video. For example, in VLC, use Video → Take Snapshot while playing the video.
2. Import images into NeatReceipts: Open NeatReceipts software and use File → Import to add the extracted images to your document library, which will then be saved as part of an NRD file.

Recommended software for the process

• VLC Media Player (free, cross-platform): For extracting snapshots from WMV videos.
• FFmpeg (free, cross-platform): For advanced frame extraction using command-line tools.
• NeatReceipts (proprietary): For managing and saving NRD files.

Summary

There is no direct WMV to NRD file conversion due to the fundamental differences between these formats. However, you can extract images from WMV videos and import them into NeatReceipts to create NRD files. Use VLC Media Player or FFmpeg for image extraction, and NeatReceipts for NRD file management.
