Avirecompress is... well, recompressor :-) It's fully GUI profram. You
just call it (without filename), and everything else (choose source -
your ASF, destination - resulting file, operation - recompress and
compression method) you do from its dialogs/buttons/whatever. Actually,
it's nice enough (when it doesn't crash, that is :-)

Hope this helps,
Vladimir
