Lacking psychic powers I looked up this "Windows Media Encoder"...
seems it's discontinued and has been replaced with the, presumably even
more powerful, Expression Encoder 4. - which is not as powerful, or
convenient as the Expression Encoder 4 Pro! Which can be purchased....
Anyway - upon perusal it's not powerful by Linux standards.... knowing
your chosen desktop whould simplify things.
$ apt-cache search encoder
will give you an idea of the staggering list of choices, whereas the
reference "tool" has only a limited number of codec choices.
Some possible candidates not already suggested:-
Arista, and Nautilus-Arista (Gnome)
Winff (any DE)
For another list look at:-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Free_multimedia_codecs,_containers,_and_splitters
NOTE: the debian multimedia (used with care) will increase your range of
choices. Perhaps your search might be simplified if you chose an output
codec - and/or an input format.
Cheers
