- Also record separate audio (24-bit WAV, for editing): creates a .wav file with the same name as the video.


## Changes during recording
While recording, the options are locked and the folder can't be changed. Changes apply to the next recording.



## Which to choose
For most cases, use H.264, MP4 and High quality. Choose HEVC when you want smaller files and your video editor opens HEVC.
