BM Proxy Generator converting to .mov

I'm on a win machine and attempting to proxy down DJI Phantom 4 Pro mp4 2.4.0 4K footage to 264 Half Res 1080p

Resultant proxies are all converting to mov files.

Did another test on a different camera (Sony 6300) - with a different codec. Same issue. All files end up as mov files as testied through MediaInfo.

Why would a transcode occur from h264 to mov when there isn't even a button to select such conversion.

The Project Properties in setting are set for h264.

Any ideas...thx

You're getting it wrong. MOV is just a container, MP4 too, just like MXF. A 'box'. What's inside matters.
So, don't care.
