Record a channel via the Admin panel
You can choose to create AVI, MP4, MOV or MPEG-TS recordings. See
Configure recording file size and type
to
learn how to change the recorded file type. (Note there are two supported MP4 types, regular MP4 which is a
progressive file format, and MP4-fragmented which is a more modern, fragmented format that isn't
supported by all video players or editors.)
The MOV file type created by VGADVI Recorder Pro requires a relatively newer player for playback. Epiphan
has tested with the following players.
