How to Convert WMV to MPEG-2 for Burning to DVD?

Overview

I have got many WMV files stored on my computers and they take much storing space, so now I plan to delete some of them after I burnt them to DVD. However, I failed to directly burn them to DVD and after my search, I learnt that I need to convert the WMV to MPEG-2 for burning to DVD, but I do not have a software to convert WMV to MPEG-2. Can you recommend me a WMV to MPEG-2 converter for my need? Thanks.

WMV format is a Windows Media Video file developed by Microsoft and so WMV format has complete compatibility with Microsoft applications, like Windows Media Player, Windows Movie Maker, etc and normally has playback issues with other platforms, players and devices. So users will fail if they try to play the WMV file in DVD player, because DVD player does not natively support to play WMV file. To play WMV file on DVD player, users need to burn the WMV to DVD, but before which, we also need to convert the WMV to MPEG-2, the most accepted video format for burning to DVD.
