Armageddon Recorder is a video creation tool which further automates WA's "Export Video" feature, simultaneously recording audio, synchronizing that recorded audio with the resulting PNG sequence, and optionally compressing that video and audio to various compression formats currently provided by FFmpeg. It also acts as an enhanced frontend for WA's "Export Video" feature, providing extra features such as the ability to set the desired background detail level and to hide or show the telephone or chat window.

Currently, Armageddon Recorder depends on FFmpeg being in the same directory or in the Windows PATH to run properly. It will fail to encode a video if ffmpeg is not detected. Automated Windows builds of FFmpeg can be freely obtained from gyan.dev or BtbN. Any GPL or LGPL static build should cause Armageddon Recorder to work. Note: the AAC codec option is not available with the latest builds of ffmpeg, it will throw an error. Choose another audio codec (such as Vorbis).
