Windows 10: [Camera App] Audio does not get recorded despite all permissions being allowed and hardware...

When I try to record a video via the camera app, the audio does not get recorded. What do I do?

Camera not recording audio in Windows 10

If the audio works on the Zoom call but not while recording a Video then it means that the drivers used are right ones.

There is no driver or hardware issue.

It may mean that the application you use for video recording is incapable of recording the audio or has not been allowed by the device to access the audio-recording hardware.

In short, give permissions to the app to access the microphone.

 

Can not record audio.

Windows Camera app not recording sound

Windows audio settings say that the default audio input device is my webcam (Logitech Webcam Pro 9000) and the volume settings for individual apps say that the input for Camera is "default". I did try changing that to the Webcam Pro specifically, but that didn't make any difference.

I have also just tried installing ManyCam, but that doesn't capture the audio either, despite the fact that the microphone selected in ManyCam settings is the one on the webcam.

One additional curious piece of information:
I tried messing about with Skype's audio capture settings, and set the input to ManyCam virtual microphone, and the sound level meter showed that sound was getting through. In other words, on the one hand, ManyCam fails to record audio just like the Camera App, but on the other hand, ManyCam is able to capture audio to be routed somewhere else. Or to put it another way, ManyCam is capturing sound, but failing to record it, just as the Windows Camera app fails to record sound.

And another piece of information: I configured the XBox Game Bar to capture all audio, including mic, apps, and system sounds, and then recorded a few seconds while playing something on Spotify, and the captured video was silent. In other words my audio recordings don't include any sounds from anywhere.

However I have been able to record audio using the audio recorder app. Is the problem something specifically to do with video recordings?
