MultiCam Capture screen recording does not capture audio

Post by DrFunkenstein67 »

I recently upgraded to VideoStudio 2020 and see that Live Screen Capture has been replaced with MultiCam Capture. Both offer the ability to use Freehand Selection to select the part of the screen to record, which is what I always used, but unlike Live Screen Capture which captures the computer audio, MultiCam Capture does not offer me the ability to record audio during screen recording. On the MultiCam Capture preview window, the Audio Source item is "Disabled" and there are no other selections. Initially of course, only the Lite version was installed with VS2020, so I figured this was a limitation of the Lite version, so I paid for the full version upgrade of MultiCam Capture, and yet, I still get no audio when recording the screen.

I feel like I'm missing a setting or something somewhere, but sure can't find it.

Does MultiCam Capture allow for recording computer audio (like Live Screen Capture did)?

Thanks for the links Robert
I have not paid much attention as to recording audio but launching MCCL shows these details

Thanks Robert. I got involved in other projects and forgot to check back on this. Interestingly enough, now when I launch MCC, the Audio Source field is filled in with Corel Audio Recorder just like in the above screenshot, whereas before it had Disabled and there was no other option from the drop down (as I indicated in my original post). Since I posted this question back in November, I have had a multiple reboots and a few MS Win10 patch installations, so I guess something else that I did has had a positive effect on MCC to all for the audio recorder function to work.

Thanks again
