# F.A.Q.S:

* **What is the output format?** At the moment only mp4, but i add in nexts release **WebM**

* **I only select 3 resolutions. Is posible to add custom resolution?** Not at the moment. I add the 3 popular resolutions. Under 480p (858x480) the video is small, and upper 1080p (1920x1080) the video size is too big. Maybe in the future i add custom fields for resolution, video bitrate, etc.

* **What Operative Systems support?** It's avaliable for **GNU/Linux**, **Windows** and **MacOS**, but i do not use the 2 lasts S.O. and i can upload precompiled versions for this systems.

* What browser supports WebM and/or MP4?:

| browser | WebM | MP4 |
|::|:----:|:---:|
| Firefox | ✓ | ✓ |
| Chrome | ✓ | ✓ |
| Edge * | ✕ | ✓ |
| Safari | ✕ | ✓ |
| Opera Mini | ✕ | ✓ |

**\*** Edge only support WebM with the **VP9** video codec.
