    Add a video: drag & drop into the drop area, or click Choose File.

  4. 4

    Set an export location: click Browse… and pick your output folder.

Quick tip: Use Retro for story/RPG videos with lots of dialog. Use Modern for gameplay/visual pacing where clean endings are based on lower volume instead of strict silence.
