ADVANCED System Format to MOBIPOCKET Books Prc conversion is the process of transforming multimedia content stored in ASF (a Microsoft-developed container commonly used for streaming audio and video with codecs like WMV and WMA) into the PRC format used by Mobipocket (a container for e-books and mobile content). This conversion typically involves extracting or transcoding video/audio streams and repackaging or converting them into a PRC-compatible asset structure, often requiring intermediate steps because PRC is primarily an ebook/mobile format rather than a native video container.
