Question / Help Change video format

[Zac Jones]

Hey i wanna start making you tube vids again and id prefer to not use flv video formats, how can I change it

i believe you can just delete .flv and type in .mp4 in OBS settings. i've also read that .flv is safer in preventing corruption of footage.

You can't just change the extension, you have to remux it: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-convert-flvs-to-mp4-fast-without-re-encoding.78/

If you're using the windows version, you can save the files as MP4 instead, but it is not recommended.
