FFMpeg error when adding screenshots

[temccarthy]

Every time I try to add a screenshot to an anki card, I get this error:

I've tried restarting the browser (I'm running Thorium Version 105.0.5166.0), restarting Anki, restarting my computer, but nothing has worked.

Can I see your settings? You can grab the json for your settings in the extension page by clicking "Export Settings".

Also, it may be worth looking at the Chrome DevTools console output by hitting F12 and seeing what shows up there when you record a flashcard. FFmpeg will often hide the real issue in there.

Here's my settings:

Looking at devtools it looks like a missing audio encoder

As a feature request, maybe you could add an indicator somewhere that says whether the video/audio codec is supported by FFMpeg or the browser
