System requirements for using Knowmia Desktop Recorder
System Requirements for FUSECamera and Microphone requirements for capturing Audio or Video:
Knowmia Desktop Recorder can be used with a built-in (integrated) or external web camera (web cams). It uses Windows Media Encoder (WME) to recognize built in (integrated) web cameras (web cams) on laptops. WME does not recognize some webcams, causing some not to function. ITS recommends using the built in camera on USC Upstate issued laptops. If you do not have a USC Upstate issued laptop, or if the laptop does not have a built in camera you can either check out a web cam from the Help Desk or purchase a recommended web cam. -
