Hi,

I work with Windows-11 and use often: Faststone Capture for Scteenshots and Video capturing
On the internet i see that Videos may be saved as WMV or Mp4
But i do not know how i should save an captured video as an MP4-file

Many internet forums say that Faststone Capture can save videos as WMV or Mp4

(See attached screeshot

But: How is that to be done?

Another FS Capture user here - the program's help file has a couple of pages on this subject that explain the feature, in case you haven't already looked.
When you save your recorded video you're given a choice of format/size/quality within the save dialog box. Referring to the latest version (11.2) for reference.

In addition, if the help file doesn't work because it's using the old .chm format you can get much the same information here - How to Capture Video Images - FSCapture Documentation

I read all the Help-files of FS-Capture, never found how to save to the MP4-format
Faststone claimed that saving can be done with WMV and MP4, but never mentioned how to do that, strange!
I think i use WMV therefore

Fastone capture uses your default media player settings. It's automatic. I use VLC so mp4 is the default save output.
