How to enable more codecs?

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I have installed Prores codec but it doesnt show up in the settings. Are just some codecs not compatible with avirecorder or is there some step im missing?

edit: Prores shows up in my adobe programs so it is definitely installed in some capacity

There are many different kinds of codecs, the codecs the tool uses is VFW (video for windows) codecs. These are quite old but most compatible so if you wanted more ones then you'd have to look for more VFW codecs, that being said besides the ones you already have there there aren't really better lossless codecs available. If you accept lossy compression then I'd recommend x264vfw or you use something like OBS instead.
