Error message when trying to record while audio is compressing
Hi all,
I was wondering whether it was possible to start a new recording while Cam Studio is compressing what I had just recorded? I never had a problem doing this i.e. when Cam Studio shows "compressing _%", I would press the record button and it would work fine. When the compression ended, I could save the 2nd recording as well.
However recently it hasn't worked and instead I get the error message about "Cam Studio has encountered a problem and needs to close" and I lose everything.
Was wondering what could be the reason I could previously record while compressing but can't do so now??
I am aware of Terry's suggestion to use multiple Cam Studio programs to record one after the other but I was hoping that just one program could do it (especially since I somehow managed to do so before).
Thanks in advance for your help.

You can probably still get away with doing this using the original 2.0 version, which is still available in the "Legacy" folder at Sourceforge.

The current version is more persnickety by design, as it has to jump through some hoops to work in the newer operating systems with the newer features.
Let me know if your tests work - I cannot test it right now (on a Linux box...)
