The ability to move the recording area while recording with oCam is very useful when you want to flexibly capture a specific part of the screen in real time. Below is a detailed explanation of how to move the recording area during recording.
To change the recording area while recording is in progress, you can use the border of the recording area. Specifically, even after recording has started in oCam, you can click and drag the border of the recording area window with the mouse to move the recording area to the desired position in real time. This feature can be used simply with mouse control and is intuitive to use without any separate shortcut keys or complicated settings.
For example, when recording gameplay, if a specific part of the screen moves or changes, such as a character's position or a certain UI element, you can drag the border to adjust the recording area in real time and capture the scene you want without missing it. This method is especially useful when recording dynamic content, helping the user respond quickly and continue tracking the necessary screen area.
When moving the recording area, you need to click and drag the border accurately. If you move it too quickly, it may shift to an unintended position, so it is best to control it smoothly and precisely. By using this feature, you can perform more flexible and efficient recording with oCam.

The System Becomes Sluggish During Recording
When recording with oCam, if the mouse moves slowly or the entire system feels sluggish, you need to adjust the settings to resolve the issue. Below is a detailed explanation of how to reduce the problem and lower the system load.
1. Click the 'Settings' button in the oCam main window.
2. When the Settings window opens, go to the 'Encoding' tab in the menu on the left.
3. In the 'Encoding' tab, check the 'Frames Per Second (FPS)' setting. The default value is likely set to 30.
4. Gradually lower the FPS value while testing system performance. For example, start at 30 and reduce it step by step to 25, 20, 15, and 10.
5. At each step, start recording and check whether the mouse movement or system sluggishness improves.
6. After finding the optimal FPS value for your PC specifications, click the 'OK' button to save the settings.
Lowering the FPS may reduce video smoothness, but it can also reduce system resource usage and improve slowdown during recording. It is important to experimentally find the FPS value that best suits your PC specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM, etc.). After changing the setting, make a test recording to find the best balance.
