Can you export a screen recording as a video?

I have been playing with Storyline's screen recording features and really like them. Until now, I've been using Camtasia, and still like using it for all it's features, including new chroma key function. I'm finding Storyline's recording to be a little smoother, easier to use and delivering a little better results than Camtasia, but still want to use Camtasia for my editing and publishing.
Is it possible to export a screen recording done in Storyline to a video format so that I can import it into Camtasia? In looking in the publish folders, I see it's all .flv files, but is it possible to export them into a .mov, f4v, wmv or any other movie file type?
Thanks!!
Jeff

Good morning Jeff!
There is indeed a way to export your Storyline screen recording to mp4 video format. Follow this link for instructions on how to do it: Exporting Screen Recordings. Hope this helps! =)
Wow, thanks so much, Nicole! That worked perfectly and was incredibly easy. Appreciate the help! Getting good help, quick, is why Storyline and the community rock!
Happy to help Jeff =) Your nice comment just made my day!!
Yes, thanks Nicole, I had the same problem ages ago, I wish I was part of this community then it would have been alot easier for me!
Something small goes a long way!
Hi, I looked at the guides on how to export a screen recording. I am using Storyline 2. It says to Right click on the preview, click export. When I get the preview, and right click, there is no dropdown menu for me to export it.

Hi Rebekah!
Not the regular preview.
Insert > Record Screen > Right click on screen recording > Export
Hi,
Yes that is what I am trying, but I do not get the "export" part.
I think this misunderstanding is on me.
Insert > Record Screen > Click to open > Right click the screen recording from the insert slide window > Export
Short video clip demonstrating attached. Sorry about that :)
Thank you so much! That was so helpful!
I'm so glad! Sorry for any confusion I previously may have caused :)
Got a problem exporting my screen records. This procedure described above isn't working for Storyline 3 as there is no Record Screen on the Insert Tab. Tried on the Record Screen under the home tab and nothing pops up for export. Do you have different work around for Storyline 3?
Hi Chris! Sorry to hear that you ran into a problem with this. The instructions are a bit different. Check it out here.
