Omg man! I'm so glad I watched this video. I was literally pulling my hair out trying to figure out what went wrong 🤣 I thought I had accidentally deleted the video codec for Windows or messed around too many with pc settings! So glad it was that simple to fix. Thank you so much. You are a life saver! 😁🙌👍

Is there no way to recover the already recorded video which has no pictures in it just audio?

Hi! Why can't I see the "output" option? I encountered the same problem, can't play a video. This never happened before. I am using Win10 thanks!
