Re: Windows Media Files



My experience with the Automatix always was the best possible one. It allows
you to do a lot of things in a simple and easily way, without any bigger
concerns.

Already I tried the EasyUbuntu but some time ago and I would not know to say
how well it behaves nowadays, in its recent incarnations.

I agree with you about the "RestrictedFormats" advice, something to be
seriously considered. But as you already had made this alert (about
RestrictedFormats) I decided to go ahead and suggest the evaluation of
Automatix.

At the end it is a matter of users choice!

I suggest he doesn't, that's why I gave the RestrictedFormats link.
Automatix is a pain:

Following the advice in RestrictedFormats is safer and one even learns
something. If it has to be an automated Tool, EasyUbuntu behaves better
than Automatix: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EasyUbuntu
