[FAQ]Cause: Failed to avio_open (error=-13)

 

This error can occur as a false alarm, if Avast software is running. When the error appears, press Allow App, and the error disappears and oCam will continue working any problem.

 

If the pop-up window asking wheter to allow app does not appear

Click the + ALLOW APP button in Menu -> Settings -> Blocked and Allowed Apps and select oCam to add it.

If oCam is added to the list of allowed apps, you will be able to record without any problem.

 

or, you can turn off Ransomware Shield off instead as follows.

Either way should be fine.



Additional tips

[FAQ]The sound becomes loud or torn when playing back the recorded video on the daum pot player

Go to Daum Pod Player Settings (After launching Daum Pod Player, press F5 on your keyboard, or right-click to enter preferences.)

Go to Sound-Normalizer / Reverberation on the left as shown below and check Uncheck Normalizer when playing.

 

* For reference, normalize means to set the sound to 0db (dbFS). For example, an algorithm that amplifies the sound volume by 0db when the sound being played is -20db is called normalization. This makes the sound louder, and at this point, you may hear a sound that is torn apart.


(The db used here is dbFS, not decibels.)
