Advanced Systems Format. It's the WiMP format that handles the codecs for whatever 
type of audio/video compressed file that you're trying to access, if it's created as a 
.asf file and the correct codec is installed. If it is a mpeg 4 file QT 6 will handle 
it provided you can convert it from the .asf format. Some version of Windows Media 
Player should play it.
