Why should I convert 3G2 files to the WII platform format?

Converting 3G2 files ensures playback compatibility on WII devices or platforms that do not support the mobile-optimized 3G2 container or its audio/video codecs.

Will converting 3G2 files affect video quality?

Yes, because 3G2 files typically contain lossy codecs, re-encoding during conversion can lead to a decrease in video and audio quality.

Are all 3G2 codecs supported during conversion?

No, some proprietary or legacy codecs may not be supported and could require additional transcoding or may result in failed conversions.
