Save to QuickTime
After recording and saving a video, it can be double-clicked in Finder to open it in QuickTime for editing. However, there is a shortcut. To save recordings directly to QuickTime, press shift+cmd+5, click ‘Options’ and select ‘QuickTime Player’ in the ‘Save to’ section. As soon as the stop button is clicked when you are done recording, the video opens for editing in QuickTime. You can then edit it and output it in HD format in one go. It’s a time-saver.
