Exporting Your Video

Gareth Casey Updated by Gareth Casey

When using the free version of Flashback Express 7, a watermark will be added to the exported video file.

When you have finished editing your project, you will need to export it to create a new video file. Flashback Express 7 can export your project to either a MP4 or MKV file.

Exporting To Video

To export a project to a video file, click the Export button at the top of the Project Editor.

You will then be able to set the following options that will be used for the video file that is created:

Filename - The name of the exported video file. By default, it will be set to the name of the project but you can change it to anything.

Folder - Choose the folder where the exported video file will be saved to. By default, it will be saved to Flashback Express 7's Export folder (\Video\Flashback Express 7\Exports\)

Format - The video format that will be used for the exported video file. By default, MP4 will be selected but MKV can be selected as an alternative.

Resolution - Choose the resolution of the exported video file that is created. By default. HD (1080p) will be seelcted but you can pick from a selection of other popular video resolutions or select Custom to specifiy your own resolution.

Advanced Export Options

If you want greater control over the properties of your exported video file, click Show Advanced Options to make the advanced options appear. You can use the advanced options to customize both the video and audio in the exported video file

Video

Encoder - By default, the popular H.264 encoder will be used. However, if your computer hasa GPU that supports hardware encoding, the H.265 encoder will be available as an alternative.

Quality - Set how much compression is applied to the video file. A higher setting means a better image quality but also a larger file size. A lower setting will produce a worse image but also a smaller file size. By default, Standard quality will be used to give a good compromise between quality and file size.

Frame Rate - Set the frame rate of the video file. A higher frame rate will look smoother but produce a larger file size. A slower frame rate will not look as smooth but will be small in size. By default, the frame rate will be 30 fps but a maximum of 60 fps can be selected.

Audio

Encoder - By default, the audio will be encoded using an MP3 encoder but AAC can also be selected as an alternative encoding format.

Bitrate - Set the bitrate of the audio. By default, 192 kbps will be used.
