Click “Add” to the right of the File Selection list on the File tab. Browse to the video or audio file you want to convert and open it.

Click “Convert/Save” to continue.

Click "Add," open the file you want to convert, and then click "Convert/Save."

Under Convert, select the video or audio codec and container to which you want to convert. For example, to transcode a video to a reasonably standard MP4 format, choose “Video – H.264 + MP3 (MP4).” To convert an audio file to an MP3 that should work practically everywhere, select “Audio – MP3.”
