I've created a chrome extension which is capable of recording screen and audio but the video output is in webm format.
According to my requirement, the output video should be in mp4 format.

Is there some native capability exists in chrome framework or any 3rd party libraries which can do so?

Have you tried setting a different MIME type?

MediaStreamRecorder only supports webm video MIME type. No mp4 support available. See here.

Note that I am not sure this is supposed to be an exhaustive list.
"Check some video MIME types that should be recordable and a few that should not be"

This list is probably exhaustive -

(It basically adds video/x-matroska to the mix, which should be very similar to WebM anyway)

In other words, MP4 is not supported, but you can always file a feature request, if you have not found an existing one. crbug.com is the place.
