Recorded videos are saved in Screenbits folder under the Documents folder by default.

- Select Settings from the Recording menu to open the Settings view.
- Click the Browse... button from the General tab under the Output section.
- Select the folder you want to save videos into.
- Click OK to close Settings view.
Note: Make sure your user account has write access to the selected folder and also the folder is in a storage device/drive with enough free space.
Output File
You can enter a pattern for the name of each output file that is created by Screenbits. The following placeholders are available to use in the pattern:
| Symbol | Meaning | Example |
|---|---|---|
| $Y | Year | 2017 |
| $M | Month | 05 |
| $D | Day | 10 |
| $H | Hour | 03 |
| $N | Minute | 55 |
| $S | Second | 20 |
The default pattern for the file name is $Y-$M-$D_$H$N$S so using the default pattern, output file name for a recording process that started at 14/05/2017 00:48:49 is 2017-05-14_004849.mp4. If a file with the same name already exist, an underscore followed by a number will be added to the end of the name to make it unique. (e.g. 2017-05-14_004849_0001.mp4)
