DAT, also Digital Audio Tape, is a signal recording and playback medium developed by Sony in the mid 1980s. In appearance it is similar to a compact audio cassette, using 4 mm magnetic tape enclosed in a protective shell, but is roughly half the size at 73 mm*54 mm*0.5 mm. As the name suggests, the recording is digital rather than analog. DAT was used professionally due to its lossless encoding, which allowed a master tape to be created that was more secure and did not induce yet more tape noise (hiss) onto the recording.

Select ASF as the output format by clicking TO ASF button on the top-line of the interface.

Choose a preinstalled profile from the drop-down menu of the ASF profile list for the output video and adjust more details by clicking Edit... button.
