Tips for precisely adjusting the recording area window
When setting the recording area in oCam, being able to precisely adjust the position and size of the window is very useful. oCam provides intuitive shortcut keys for this, allowing users to fine-tune the recording area exactly as needed. Below are some tips for precisely adjusting the recording area window and how to use the shortcut keys.
In oCam, you can drag the window used to set the recording area with the mouse to move or resize it, but using shortcut keys allows for much more precise adjustment. Shortcut keys are especially useful when you need to set an exact position or size.
Adjusting the recording area position
- Arrow keys: Press the arrow keys (up, down, left, right) to move the recording area window precisely one pixel at a time. This is useful when fine adjustment is needed.
- Ctrl + Arrow keys: If you want to move it by a larger amount, use the arrow keys while holding down the Ctrl key. This combination moves the window more quickly, making it easier to adjust the position efficiently.
Adjusting the recording area size
- Shift + Arrow keys: Hold down the Shift key and use the arrow keys to resize the recording area window. The up and down arrow keys adjust the height of the window, and the left and right arrow keys adjust the width. This also allows precise adjustment one pixel at a time.
- Shift + Ctrl + Arrow keys: If you want to resize the window by a larger amount, use the arrow keys while holding down both the Shift and Ctrl keys. This combination changes the window size more quickly in larger increments, which is useful when major resizing is needed.
These shortcut keys help you adjust oCam's recording area settings very precisely and carefully. For example, if you want to record only a specific game window or a certain part of the screen, you can first set the approximate area with the mouse and then use the shortcut keys to fine-tune it pixel by pixel for the exact result you want.
In this way, oCam provides user-friendly shortcut keys that support precise adjustment of the recording area. Make active use of these shortcut keys to set the recording area more accurately and efficiently.

How to Record Microphone and Computer Audio Together While Recording (Windows Vista, 7, 8)
For Windows Vista, 7, and 8, normal operation may not be guaranteed because Microsoft has ended support for these operating systems. (Reference)
In the oCam main window, click the Sound button.
The following menu will appear, and by default, No Microphone Recording is selected.
Select the microphone you want to record. ( If your microphone does not appear in the list, refer to the instructions below. )
Once selected, the setting will be applied as shown below, and the microphone audio will be recorded together.
If the microphone device does not appear in the list above even though the microphone is connected, proceed as follows.
( If, as shown below, no microphone-related menu appears at all and only the system sound recording menu is shown, or if a microphone item appears but not all microphone devices are listed, or if you are using a separately purchased audio interface, the audio interface device rather than the default microphone device should appear in the list. If it does not, follow this procedure. )
Go to Start Menu - Control Panel.
In Control Panel, find and click Sound.
The following window will appear. Click the Recording tab.
In the Recording tab, right-click the white area where it says No audio devices are installed to open the pop-up menu. ( Or, if recording devices are listed but the device you want does not appear. )
Click Show Disabled Devices.
Select the microphone device you want to use, right-click it, and click Enable.
( If you are using an audio interface, a separate recording device called Line In may appear instead of a microphone, and you should record using that device. )
In oCam, click the Sound button to check whether the microphone device now appears correctly.
