oCam now supports audio recording as well as video recording.
Click the Audio Recording tab on the oCam main screen to open a user-friendly and simple menu. This menu is designed to provide various recording options so users can 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.
Depending on your needs, you can use this feature to record only audio, such as for audio content creation, podcast recording, or capturing background music.
Click the Sound button to select the audio source, such as system audio or microphone input settings, then click the Record button on the screen to start recording. This feature is very useful for tasks that require audio-only recording. 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 setting changes can be completed in just a few clicks, maximizing user convenience.
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. This format provides a good balance between audio quality and file size, making it suitable for general use. However, for users with more specific requirements, oCam also provides an option to choose audio codecs other than MP3 through the Codec button. If you select AAC format, you can maintain high audio quality with efficient compression, making it a flexible choice depending on the project.
This setup process clearly shows 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 path, audio quality, and input sources in the settings menu. For example, you can adjust the volume levels of the microphone and system audio separately, or set a save folder to optimize your workflow. Thanks to this flexibility and convenience, oCam is used in a wide range of environments, from personal use to professional IT work. If you want high-quality audio recording, it is recommended to adjust the codec and detailed settings to suit your environment and achieve 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.
