    MUSIC/SOUND:
    since a replay you create doesn't have any sound how about importing music or sound while rendering or something? Maybe after rendering a little message would pop-up asking if you would like to add sound, and if you click yes a simple video editor would appear for you to add sound to?
    I use replay to create 360 videos and it's really hard to find a video editor that won't add the black bars of doom or make the quality look like a fuzzy mess. plus you won't have to wait 5 million years to render the video then edit the video then render the edit then upload to youtube or somewhere... Something like this would be useful!

    FILE TYPE:
    ok, MP4 is great and widely used and supported but they are generally quite large and it's hard not to lose quality when compressing... maybe add an option to change the filetype? like a .wmv or .avi?

    Most people that upload to YouTube don't want to compress their videos.
    You can however render to WMV by using the custom command line argument function. An example of a custom argument is as follows

    ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -b:v 2M -vcodec msmpeg4 -acodec wmav2 output.wmv
    PS: I didn't test the above function but it gives you an idea of what FFMPEG and the Replay Mod is capable of. In theory, the above should work. I will test it out and leave feedback at a later point.

    Similarly, you can export to AVI too. There is a wealth of information on FFMPEG so you should do some exploring :)

    I like the idea of being able to add sound but I am not sure of how easy that would be to implement.

    Thanks for the command line! maybe i should find out a little about FFMPEG...
    and glad you like my sound idea :D

    EDIT:
    aww it gives me a crash
    java.io.IOException: The pipe is being closed
    uh..... How do I reset the command line box? it keeps giving me the crash and deleting what was in there won't work either!
    nevermind I got it

    If you want little quality loss, use the "MP4 - High Quality" Preset.
