Rockbox does not support wmv files. The only video file type that is supported by Rockbox, is MPG with MP3 multiplexed in it.

The WMV are compressed files, H10 haven't enough CPU to decode that !!

You need to transcode the video on uncompressed format. See:

Need help with the video

No, wma is not supported.

Yes you can "mod" Rockbox to support it, if you want to rewrite the required WMA decoder to only use fixed-point math, optimise it, and implement it into Rockbox .

Yes you can dual-boot. Check the dual-boot tutorial thread.

MPEG is not an uncompressed video format.

It's compressed, it's just a different type of compression. Like the difference between MP3 and Ogg/Vorbis.

Actually there are several different converters for mp4 to mp3, but you will lose some quality.

No. DRM is completely different.
