I have a .mov out of a canon SX50 camera froma helicopter ride and it is a bit jumpy. ran deshaker3.1 and it is great but I cannot save it as mp4. Error in the title line. What should I choose for output type? I tried as X265. I can save it as an AVI.
Thanks

    Depends what you want to do with it. For storing and playback the "default" choice would be x264 for video, lame mp3 for audio, mp4 file.
    pcm_s16le can be saved to mov, mkv, avi but not mp4

    I also have the same issue (pcm_s16le: codec not currently supported in container) and i give all details below:

    I have several long video files that i need to edit (remove some initial parts, breaks and dead moments) and I always got errors when i try to save / export the edited file. It's a "pcm_f32le: codec not currently supported in container mp4" in VirtualDub2

    I have several Webex sessions (each with 4 - 5 hours) in arf and wmv format (I export using cisco Network Recording Player application).
    The WMV files have the ASF (Active Streaming Format) container format, video 1440x768, 25 fps wmv3 video codec, yuv420p, 1000 Kb/sec bitrate. The audio is in stereo s16p, 44.100 Hz, 1152 kb/sec bitrate.

    I also can convert the files with VirtualDub2 to mpg4 or Xvid minconverter to avi.

    If i use VirtualDub2, the mp4 have the QuickTime/Mov container format, video 1440x768, with h264 video codec, 2.29 fps average, yuv420p (709) and the aac audio codec, stereo fltp, 33 kHz, 50 kb/sec bitrate.

    If i use Xvid, the avi (Audio Video Interleaved) container have video 1440x768, mpeg4 video codec, yuv420p, 5 fps and mp3 audio, stereo s16p, 44.100 Hz, 128 kb/sec bitrate.

    The unedited video export sizes are similar:
    304 Mb arf is converted in a 801 Mb wmv that is compressed into a 509 mb avi or a 506 mb mp4 file.

      You get pcm_f32 because source audio is decoded in raw pcm (float).
      To save audio in mp4 you need to select compatible compression:
      1. select Audio->Full processing mode
      2. select Audio->Compression->FFMpeg AAC or FFMpeg Lame MP3

        Thanks it works!! MPEG Layer-3 still would not work for me.

    But i convert from wmv to mp4 with VirtualDub2. And now, VirtualDub2 can't edit the movie it creat. Something is wrong.

      Maybe you expected that audio is copied in already encoded format (aac). This does not work (not without workarounds). https://sourceforge.net/p/vdfiltermod/wiki/direct_copy/
      You need to encode it again.
