We have this system but can't get it to record audio. What do we need to do to record audio as well as video?

There should be an Audio plug, it is a seperate cable you need to purchase! If that doesn't work, try an adapter that has an audio/video splitter.

Install the software for your computer. The software will allow you to record and save the recordings on your hard drive. If you don't have a computer you have to hook the head unit to a tv. A VCR must be hooked to the tv to record.

Hi there Chris - Yes there are two recording modes - voice-activated and continuous recording. With the continuous recording mode it will record sound and video. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Send it back, or order a memory card from amazon with more memory so you can record more.

I'm just curious if you've tried recording something on the video setting and playing it back on your computer to see if the sound comes out. The "speaker" or playback on the cameras are piss poor, not that they should be anything great, but it might be possible that you can't hear it on the camera but the sound pics up on video and you can hear it on playback. Hope that made some sense. I hope it works out for you.

I am still working on trying to record something. Not enough information on how to operate it.

Can't help you. Mine didn't even play and record button broke right away. Sent it back.

There are microphones in each camera. So you can not only record audio with the video, but login with a smart device and hear live audio on each camera.

Along as the drive unit has an input for a mic, you can use one. Getting the mic to work may take some trail and error. If using a TV or computer. You will need a HDM1 cable to record the audio and video at the same time.

I haven't even been able to get the darn thing to record. The directions are pretty much non-existent. Any tips?

I have had the same exact problem. Worked great for awhile; now just shows it is recording and doesn't register any sound. Would love to hear if anyone has a solution?

Except for I bought this model and mine records audio and video together. It's an option in your video recording menu to allow audio & video to record together. Only allowing video, however, allows for much more recording space

I would suggest using open broadcast software with this video capture. u can't use this device to record voice. also u can't play and record at the same time with this device. Again u have to use OBS with it to get the recording. Also u r going to get low quality video with this device.

Try audacity its a recording software for Windows and Apple and if that doesn't help try Sound Record or Cakewalk

Hey Jeff, it will record both audio and video, you just need to be sure you go in the settings and turn on the audio recording setting. Mine was set to audio recording "off" when I received the unit.

It should record your game audio just fine as long as you have your audio cables, the red and white ones, hooked up properly... If you're trying to record an audio commentary to go over gameplay you cannot do that with this device. There's a lot of ways to do that. Probably the easiest way is to have a video editing software for your PC or Mac which is able to record audio, and then a microphone of course. I would Try Videopad if you're looking for a free video editing software.

The audio for playback of what was recorded sounds fine and is adequate.I have not been able to test sending audio to the camera.
