How can I prevent the oCam main window from being included in the recording?
When recording the full screen or using other recording modes with oCam, the oCam main window may be included in the video by default. To prevent this, use the method below. This allows you to record the screen cleanly without the oCam main window appearing in the video.
If you minimize oCam and then press the recording shortcut key F2, recording will start without including the main window. This method also works when recording the full screen or a specific area, and it is useful for keeping the oCam interface out of the video.
How to use it:
1. Open the oCam main window.
2. Minimize the oCam window to the taskbar so it is hidden from the screen.
3. Press the F2 key on your keyboard to start recording.
When recording is finished, press F2 again to stop it. With this method, you can exclude the oCam main window from the video and get a cleaner recording result. If needed, you can also check or change the shortcut key settings in the 'Options' menu.
