How to Record Audio Only with oCam
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.

How to Fix the Issue of 7 Days to Die Not Being Detected for Game Recording (Anti-Cheat Related)
When recording a game with oCam, problems may occur if a game with an AntiCheat feature is running. AntiCheat software may block recording software or cause conflicts, which can prevent oCam from working properly. Below is a detailed explanation of how to solve this problem and record games smoothly with oCam.
To resolve problems caused by the AntiCheat feature, you can launch the game without AntiCheat enabled. You can use an option provided by Steam or run a specific game executable directly to bypass AntiCheat. Below are two methods:
Method 1: Launch the game from Steam without AntiCheat
1. Launch the Steam client and select the game you want to record (for example, 7 Days to Die) from your Library.
2. On the game's detail page, click the blue 'Play' button.
3. When the launch options window appears, select the 'Launch Without AntiCheat' option.
4. The game will launch without AntiCheat, allowing normal recording with oCam.
Method 2: Run the game executable directly
For some games, you can disable AntiCheat by running the executable directly from the Steam library folder. For example, in the case of 7 Days to Die:
1. Go to the Steam library path. The default path is `SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\`.
2. In that folder, find the `7DaysToDie.exe` file and double-click it to run it.
3. When launched this way, AntiCheat is automatically disabled, and you can record the game in oCam without any issues.
Applying the methods above can resolve conflicts caused by AntiCheat and allow you to record the game smoothly with oCam. However, disabling AntiCheat may cause restrictions in online multiplayer mode, so make sure your recording is intended for offline play or single-player mode. If the problem persists, using the latest game patch or the latest version of oCam may also help.
