  6. For the Output File, click Select to choose the output folder and filename.

  7. Select the file format.

  8. Change the bit rates. The suggested video bit rate of 2000 kbps is good. For good quality video, it’s best to not go below this. The audio bitrate can be raised to 192 kbps but will produce a larger file.

  9. Click, Convert. Once the conversion begins, you’ll see a progress bar and a Details button. Click this to watch the log. Once it’s finished the generated file will appear in the Alternative Files list, with the option to add another generated file.

★ Tip  Use MP4 for the main file and WebM for the alternative.
