Exporting Microsoft Stream files as .wmv or .mp4

Question

Hello,

I'm wondering if you can help please. Currently, when I export a Microsoft Stream file, the file format is .webm. I tried opening this file format in Windows Media Player and in the Video Editor App, however, neither application can recognise the file type.

Is there a way to export a Microsoft Stream file in a different format, such as .wmv or .mp4? Currently, if I want to convert the file format, I would need to use a different non-Microsoft application. I'm just wondering if this could instead be done using Microsoft applications.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Many thanks.

Hi @Ian Lynch ,

Perhaps the following link can help you:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/72600/convert-webm-vs-mp4-in-stream.html

There it states that you should be able to just change the extension of the file to .mp4 and it should work.
