The default path in XP is My Documents\VLC Record and in Vista/Windows 7 is C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\vlc , however, this can be set to a custom path.''note: special thanks to Panama Joe and LG for proving updated information about the VLC Record button.''===Capture vs Record=== VLC doesn't specialize in encoding, but is capable at a basic level. Use of the term "record" is not clear because record can mean "capture" or "encode." Using the record button does a capture. However, there is also a way to choose a codec and reencode the video stream. * see: [[Encoding Video With VLC]] for details on how to record using a different video format than the source.In Windows 7 this file is located in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\vlc.
