    I am having trouble enabling/directing the Replay Mod to my FFMPEG executable file. I am on a Windows 8.1 Computer. Also, I do not know where the "Command Line Tab" or "Rendering Settings" are as described in the documentation. If someone could please help me that would be spectacular!

    If you open up your Render Settings, you need to click on Advanced Settings, then on Command Line Settings to open the Command Line Settings. There are two boxes where you have to modify the left one. Instead of ffmpeg you need to put in your full path of ffmpeg.exe in it, so it looks like C:/this/is/your/path/bin/ffmpeg.exe

    Here are some screenshot on how to get to the command line settings.

    If you're on OSX, you can enter which ffmpeg in your Terminal to get the Path to your FFmpeg executable (which you should enter in the Command Line Settings)

    Thank You, manuelguru, Hudeler, and Crushed Pixel, I will try these methods, and see what my result is in the end.

    Sincerely,

    I have replaced the ffmpeg name in the left box with C://Users/(My User)/Desktop/ffmpeg.exe , and it still gives me the red error screen. I am afraid that I may have downloaded the file incorrectly, but I went to the website (http://ffmpeg.org/download.html) downloaded it, and got this as a downloaded file, ffmpeg-2.7.2.tar.bz2 , and I changed the ".bz2" to ".exe" I have no idea if I have corrupted/invalidated the file.

    Please refer to the official documentation on how to install FFmpeg correctly!

    I'm also having problems. What about the right one? I messed with it a while ago and now it's blank. Is the fact that it's blank a problem? I know I'm having issues with the mod because when I render a video it crashes. Thank you.

    COMMAND LINE SETTINGS:
    left: C:\Users\[USER]\Desktop\All\[PRIVATE]\Programs\ffmpeg-20170711-0780ad9-win32-static\bin\ffmpeg.exe
    right: [empty]
