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.

oCam Closes Automatically a Few Seconds After Launching

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.
