    Hi, I am getting output from VPT to syphon recorder but when recording the .mov file created will not playback in latest QuickTime. Is there an issue with the new QuickTime? Or do I need to convert the file to ensure playback. If so is there a recommendation for software to use that will do lossless conversion from the .mov to mpeg4?

    What codec is selected in the Preferences? If it is Apple Intermediate Codec, and you’re on 10.11 and don’t have the Pro Video Formats codecs installed from Apple, then QuickTime Player X won’t be able to play it. Try using one of the ProRes 422 codecs.

    Don’t I need Final Cut Pro installed to install these codecs?

    I don’t know. That isn’t really a Syphon Recorder question. If you can’t play the codec you’re recording with, use an alternative codec. If you need to use Apple Intermediate Codec for some reason, then use a player which can play it (such as QuickTime Player 7).
