Record Movie
VirtualDJ can record the session using the Microsoft MPEG4 codec installed on the computer as part of
the Windows Media Player install. The Microsoft MPEG4 codec is used by default because it's the best
codec to be used in live scenarios. For example, with the Divx codec a video can not record if the size
is greater than 320x320 whereas Microsoft MPEG4 codec can record at least at 1024x768 and more.
Click on “Config” to access the configuration settings for video recording.

File –
• Path – provide the path and name of the file where the recording is going to be saved.
