Where do recorded videos go?

Postby AmandaHugginkis » 18 Aug 2011 01:38

I'm using VLC 1.1.10 for Win7 and I enabled the "advanced controls" in the view menu and this enabled Record, Take a Snapshot, Loop from A to B, and Frame By Frame icons right above play, etc.

I clicked the record icon and I didn't get any type of feedback or any boxes asking to name the file or save it. It's as if nothing happened. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help!

I am sorry to say that I continue to have the same problem.
I want to have a small part of a video edited.
I clicked the "loop from point A to point B continuously".
Loop started and when I reached the point I want, I stopped it.
Then the loop runs continuously in the place of the video.
Looking in all menus, I cannot find a customization for saving the loop.
I could not find it in User/Video.
I run the last version of VLC and W7
Can anyone tell me please where to find a place for Browse a save loop ?
I appreciate your contribution to my ignorance.

There isn't any save loop option. You can limit the part with

Code: Select all

--start-time=<float> Start time The stream will start at this position (in seconds). --stop-time=<float> Stop time The stream will stop at this position (in seconds).
in case you use command-line. Or you can use red recording button and just start and stop on correct time (but it won't be frame accurate).

Thanks for support.
However, is there no alternative way to save the loops ?

I there any possible way to get it recorded, please ??

Red recoding button is the easiest way to save short clips with VLC.

Much appreciated your guidance.
I used Record button in and out to edit useful parts of a video and it worked fine.
Edited part was saved in Libraries/Video of W7.
Hope others can make use of it.
Thanks
