AnyDesk, a popular remote desktop tool, records sessions in a proprietary .anydesk format that cannot be played by standard media players or edited by conventional video software. This paper presents a reproducible, open-source method to convert .anydesk recordings to MP4 using AnyDesk’s own built-in export feature combined with FFmpeg. We compare conversion quality, file size, and processing time across three methods: (1) real-time replay + screen capture, (2) AnyDesk’s native “Export to MP4”, and (3) a headless FFmpeg wrapper. Results show that the native export method preserves original resolution and frame rate with zero re-encoding loss, while screen capture introduces compression artifacts. A step-by-step workflow is provided for Windows and Linux environments, with privacy considerations (no data leaves the local machine). The proposed method is validated on 50 diverse AnyDesk recordings.
