Tutorial makers, gamers, and presenters can record desktop activity, webinars, or video calls with oCam. The screen recorder lets you set a capture area, include audio, and save video or still images; it also supports animated GIF recording.
Capture area and cursor effects
Choose a screen region for the recording and adjust its size or position. oCam includes controls for moving the capture area while recording, which lets you follow activity in a different part of the screen without starting over.
Cursor settings include size, highlighting, and click effects. These options can make pointer movement and mouse actions more visible in a tutorial or demonstration. A separate setting controls whether oCam’s main window appears in the recording.
Video, audio, and game recording
oCam records desktop video with computer audio, microphone input, or both. The sound settings cover audio recording options, while video settings include codec selection, quality, frame rate mode, and resizing. Game recording has its own settings tab.
For workflows that need a video codec beyond the built-in choices, oCam supports external Video for Windows codecs, including Xvid and x264vfw. These codecs have their own setup and quality controls.
- Record audio without video and save it as MP3.
- Choose variable or constant frame rate mode.

Screenshots and saved files
In addition to video, oCam captures still images and animated GIFs. The capture settings provide options for image output, while the save settings let you change where recordings are stored and adjust saved-file naming.
