I'm using version 2.2.6 umbrella and windows 8.
I have a long mp4 video that I shortened using vlc record button, that is on the Advanced controls ribbon.
When i play back this new shortened video, all I have is a black screen with a traffic cone in the middle.
Could you help me out with suggestions of whats wrong
thank you

InTheWings, thank you but sorry that's gone right over my head. No idea what a codec is or an iframe let alone how to do it.
Good you give me some guidance, I'm a total novice
thank you in advance

Don't record, use transcoding

Inthewings, from my original post is that what I'm doing and if it is, how do I record without using transcoding... what ever that is.
sorry if I'm sounding thick but I genuinely don't understand

InTheWings, are you able to help me any further?
I've deleted VLC, redownloaded it and still the same, I have no idea what the problem is or how to solve it
