Webex Recording Format
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
Webex Recording Format (WRF) is a proprietary video container format used to store recordings created by Webex, a video conferencing program used mainly in business environments. It appears, based on mentions of a specific codec not "being accepted" by a conversion program[3], to be a container format; the fact that it can use the H.264 codec[3] suggests that it may internally use other widely-used formats, as well. It is possible that it may record other details of the video conference, such as text chat, as well.[4] It seems to share the magic number ASCII WOTF ("WOT File", presumably) with WOT[5][6]. It succeeded WOT and was succeeded by Advanced Recording Format.

Sample Files
- SharingApp_ContactOperation.wrf (Produced garbage output when tested with the 2004 version of the player; unclear where the flaw is.)
Software
- Webex Player
- WRF2WMV: Convert to WMV
- Video Converter Factory: Probably malware, with a very dubious claim to support the format. Did nothing but crash at startup when tested.
