Download original video as an mp4
Hi! I created some videos in my stream and need to download them as either a .mp4, .mov, or .avi type of file. Right now it's only downloading as a .webm file. How do I fix this?
A simple rename of the file extension works.
You first need to be able to see the file extension by doing this.
Click the Start menu. ...
Type "folder options" (without the quotes). ...
A dialog box with the title "Folder Options" will appear. ...
Click to uncheck the box for "Hide extensions for known file types".
Click the "OK" button at the bottom of the dialog box.
Now to just right click on the file and select rename.
Change the .webm to .wmv or .mp4, whatever.

Wim_Groffils that worked perfect. Thank you. Didn't require a trim either. 🙂
