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.

How to Change the File Name of Saved Recordings, Audio Recordings, or Captures
Click Tools - Options in the top menu of oCam.
Then click the Save tab on the left to set the file name for saved files.
By default, files are saved in the following format.
<Prefix>_<YYYY_MM_DD_HH_NN_SS_Z>
The text inside the <> brackets uses special keywords. These keywords can represent the prefix, date, serial number, program name, user ID, and user name.
With the default settings, when recording starts and then finishes, the file is saved in the format Recording_2015_05_07_14_22_41_791. If you only want to change the word Recording at the beginning, you can change it as follows.
Test_<YYYY_MM_DD_HH_NN_SS_Z>
If you do this, the file will be saved in the format Test_2015_05_07_14_22_41_791 after recording is completed.
If you want to add a serial number after Test instead of the date,
set it to Test_<#>, and it will be saved as Test_1... Test_2 ... Test_3...................... Test_10.
