Using oCam at work or school? A license is required, and it removes all ads, including this window. See the paid version →
On the main screen of oCam, click the Audio Recording tab to open a simple, user-friendly menu. This menu provides various recording options in oCam, allowing users to 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.
You can use this feature whenever you want to record only audio, such as for creating audio content, recording podcasts, or capturing background music.
Click the Sound button to choose the audio source, such as system sound or microphone input settings, and then click the Record button on the screen to start recording. This feature is very useful for tasks where you need to focus only on audio. 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 settings can be changed in just a few clicks, making the user experience even more convenient.
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. It provides a good balance between sound quality and file size, making it suitable for general use. However, for users with more specific needs, oCam also provides an option to select audio codecs other than MP3 through the Codec button. If you choose AAC format, you can maintain high sound quality with efficient compression, giving you more flexibility depending on your project.
These settings clearly show 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 location, audio quality, and input source in the oCam settings menu. For example, you can adjust the volume levels of the microphone and system sound separately, or specify a save folder to optimize your workflow. Thanks to this flexibility and convenience, oCam is widely used in many different environments, from individual users to IT professionals. If you want high-quality audio recordings, it is recommended to adjust the codec and detailed settings to match your working environment for the best results.

When trying to record with oCam, a specific issue may occur if an online video lecture site is running. This problem is usually caused by anti-recording software used by the site to protect its content. Below is a detailed explanation of the issue and how to handle it.
Online video lecture sites often use anti-recording software to protect copyrighted content. This software detects recording programs such as oCam and force-closes them at regular intervals. As a result, oCam may not be able to continue recording normally or may close unexpectedly.
To resolve this issue, you need to contact the online video lecture site directly where you want to record. Ask the site operator whether recording is allowed and check their related policy. If necessary, request permission to record. Some sites may allow recording under certain conditions or provide a way to temporarily disable the anti-recording feature.
Attempts to bypass issues caused by anti-recording software may violate the site's terms of use, so it is important to follow the site's policy. Therefore, if you want to record lecture content with oCam, first consult the site administrator and follow the proper procedure.
