Choose audio recording device for video recording

[svArt]

Hi,

I just tried to record from my webcam with ViceoStudio 7, which worked fine. It recorded audio along with the video, which is excellent.
BUT it chose my front panel mic (which is my headset) - I need the sound from my table mic.
I've set the table mic to both the standard recording device and the standard communications device, but to no effect.
Then I disabled the front mic. Upon that, I could not start the recording ("Could not initialize video recording plugin. Can't create video recording filter")

How do I do it?
(FYI: When I record a voice over, the correct mic is selected)

Nobody, huh?
Come on, there has to be a way to choose which recording device the audio is recorded from???

Hi

Sorry but I do not think I can help, I have one desktop mic connected via usb that is set as default device.
I do not have multiple recording devices so don’t know what happens when switching devices.

However when I go to Screen Capture, and choose Settings – Sound Check I am able to choose an input device, I don’t suppose your inputs are listed there, just a thought.
Otherwise I would think it’s a computers audio recording settings that need a tweak, yes I realise you have been there.

Maybe other users with multiple mics can help here?

I can switch my inputs in the WINDOWS audio control panel - have you looked there

Thanks for replying guys...

WINDOWS audio control panel

...What exactly do you mean, though?
Do you mean Control Panel -> Sound?

If you simply mean setting a default device and/or disabling the other, then yes, I did that (that's what I meant by

I've set the table mic to both the standard recording device and the standard communications device, but to no effect

)
Otherwise, could you elaborate on your suggestion?

Seems to me like that's a major oversight. IF the user can't specify the device, then the recording should use the windows default device.
