Click Tools - Options on the oCam main menu to view the settings in the Save category.

By default, the save path is set to the "This PC-Documents-oCam" folder in Windows 10, and all recordings, audio recordings, and captures are saved to this location.
The save path can be changed by clicking the button.
The file name to be saved follows a predefined format or a user-defined format, and by default it is set to "<Prefix>_<YYYY_MM_DD_HH_NN_SS_Z>".
The file name format can also be changed by clicking the button, and when you click it, you can see the predefined formats.


If you click the Help menu item, you can see more detailed information about the format, as shown below.

The file name format may feel difficult for some users, so here are a few examples.
- If the file name is <Prefix>_<#>, then <Prefix> is the prefix and # is the serial number.
The prefix is replaced with Recording when recording video, Audio when recording sound, and Capture when capturing the screen, while # is replaced with a serial number.
For example, when you finish recording the screen, a file named Recording_1 is created. ( Only if there is no similar file name in the oCam save folder. )
And when you record again, a file named Recording_2 is created. The reason the serial number becomes 2 is because a file named Recording_1 already exists.
- If the file name is <ProgramName>_<#>, then <ProgramName> represents the name of the program being recorded. In normal screen recording, it is replaced with oCam, and <#> is added as a serial number just as before.
However, when recording a game, recording starts inside the game program, so the file is created using the name of the game's executable file.
- If the file name is <dddddd>_<#>, then dddddd means the localized date, so on a Korean operating system it is replaced with the current date at the time this was written, Thursday, June 16, 2016, and # is filled in with a serial number.
The localized date varies depending on the language settings of the operating system. In other words, it appears differently on an English OS because it uses the format built into the operating system.
- If the file name is My_<#>_th_<Prefix>_File, then when recording, a file named My_1st_Recording_File is created, and when recording again, the file name becomes My_2nd_Recording_File.
- If the file name is <UserID> recorded <Prefix> of the game called <ProgramName> on <DDDDDD>. then it may be created as "AdvancedDeveloper recorded Recording of the game called LocalDeformablePRT on Thursday, June 16, 2016." The content inside <> varies depending on what is being recorded.
Serial number start means the starting number of the serial number that can be set with # inside <>.
oCam now supports audio recording as well as video recording.

Click the Audio Recording tab on the oCam main screen to open a user-friendly and simple menu. This menu is designed to provide various recording options so users can adjust the settings as needed. One of oCam's strengths is its intuitive interface, which makes it easy to use for everyone from beginners to IT professionals.
Depending on your needs, you can use this feature to record only audio, such as for audio content creation, podcast recording, or capturing background music.

Click the Sound button to select the audio source, such as system audio or microphone input settings, then click the Record button on the screen to start recording. This feature is very useful for tasks that require audio-only recording. For example, it is efficient when you want to extract lecture audio separately, record an interview, or make a simple voice recording. Thanks to oCam's simple controls, these setting changes can be completed in just a few clicks, maximizing user convenience.

By default, audio files are saved in MP3 format. MP3 is one of the most widely used formats for audio recording because it offers small file sizes and excellent compatibility with most devices and software. This format provides a good balance between audio quality and file size, making it suitable for general use. However, for users with more specific requirements, oCam also provides an option to choose audio codecs other than MP3 through the Codec button. If you select AAC format, you can maintain high audio quality with efficient compression, making it a flexible choice depending on the project.
This setup process clearly shows how simple yet powerful oCam is. oCam is more than just a screen recording tool; it is versatile software that also supports professional audio recording tasks. Users can further adjust details such as the file save path, audio quality, and input sources in the settings menu. For example, you can adjust the volume levels of the microphone and system audio separately, or set a save folder to optimize your workflow. Thanks to this flexibility and convenience, oCam is used in a wide range of environments, from personal use to professional IT work. If you want high-quality audio recording, it is recommended to adjust the codec and detailed settings to suit your environment and achieve the best results.
