Recommended Recording Format

An important aspect to note is the recording format. It is recommended to use fragmented MP4. In case your capture software crashes, recording in fragmented MP4 ensures you retain the video up to the crash point, although you might lose a small amount due to processing. Using fragmented MP4 provides a higher chance of preserving your content compared to other formats.
