Your DIVX file is demuxed — video, audio, and subtitle streams are separated
The video stream is decoded frame-by-frame, then re-encoded with WMV-compatible codecs (typically H.264 for MP4)

Subtitle and chapter data is preserved where the target supports it
Streams are muxed into the WMV container and the file is saved
