After installing the codec, you must re-run Ocam to see it in the external codec list.
After re-launching Ocam, click the codec button in the ocam main window and click the external codec menu.
Check the box to Use an external codec.
Select x264vfw-H264 / MPEG-4 AVC codec from the list.
Click on the Settings button to see the detailed settings in the codec.
The codec setting window will appear as shown below. Currently, we need to record the screen in real time rather than the normal video encoding, so select Ultrafast in Preset, check the Zero Latency checkbox and set the encoding to be the fastest, and press the OK button.
(This setting method is useful for real time recording and you can set it according to the situation.)
If you record like this, the recording is done using x264 codec.
* For game recording, if the game you want to record is 64-bit, you must also install the 64-bit version of x264vfw (by default, unless you touch the option during x264vfw installation), x264vfw-Configure x264vfw64 from the Start menu. Run it and set it up as described above.
* Keep / Accept only YUV 4: 2: 0, Keep / Accept only YUV 4: 2: 2, Keep / Accept only YUV 4: 4: 4 are not supported for x264vfw setting and recording will fail when using this setting.

This is a blog to share a variety of tips and news associated with OhSoft.
Click Tools-Options in the oCam menu to display the following settings window. Learn about the Recording-General tab.
Include the cursor
- It is checked by default. If checked, the mouse cursor of recorded video is included. If not checked, the mouse cursor of recorded video is not included.
Hide drag cursor in recording area
-By default, the check is cleared. If checked, the drag cursor in the middle of the recording area disappears.
Frames Per Second (FPS) - It is set to 30 by default and can be up to 120 FPS. 30 FPS is suitable for recording general screens. It is recommended to record 60 FPS or more for racing games or games that change screens rapidly during game recording.
Among the built-in codecs, MPEG-2 and MPEG-1 codecs are fixed at 30 FPS without being affected by the codec setting.
Keyframe interval - By default, it is set to 5. If the keyframe interval is 5, keyframes are generated every 5 seconds, if 1, every 1 second, if 2, every 2 seconds, if n, then every second.
Decoder Resolution Compatibility - Some video players have a problem with blurry playback of video files that are not set to a specific resolution size. (For example, bear player)
By default, the width is set to a multiple of 8, and the vertical is set to a multiple of 4. If the horizontal size of the recording area specified by the user does not fit to the multiple of 8, it is forced to a multiple of 8. The vertical size of the recording area does not fit to the multiple of 4. If not, the vertical size is applied in multiples of four.
For example, if the decoder resolution is set to "multiple of 8 and vertical of 4" and the recording area is 427x241, the horizontal size is 427, but since it is not divided by 8, the horizontal resolution is corrected to divide by 8 Is 424, and the vertical size is not divided by 4, so it is applied to 240 so that the recording area is finally set to 424x240.
