have various image size and format options available, and will
vary from device to device.
Check the Audio Device box to record audio from your selected
sound source.
When you're ready, click the red Record button.
Capturing from WDM Devices

driver framework. Newer webcams, USB devices, or PCI devices
might use the WDM standard.

device from the pull-down. The Settings, Format, and Input
buttons may contain various options including enhancement
features and compression, depending on the device.
