Trouble getting audio and video to sync properly in Cam Studio?

The article below was written by my friend Greg Rubottom.

Cam Studio is a great free desktop recording program for Windows. However, unless you use the proper settings for video and audio (see images below) you will end up with your video and audio out of sync in the final AVI file.

I have found little information online about this problem, and what little I did find has proven to be less than accurate.

So, I created the following YouTube video to show you what the proper settings should be to maintain audio and video sync and to ensure that your Cam Studio files will be viewed in HD on YouTube.

I searched and searched the web for a decent free video file format converter. I have no idea how many I must have tried, but it was a significant number. In the end I think it is no contest.

Any Video Converter is hands down my favorite. There are two versions: a free version, which is only available on Windows, and then a professional version, which has a few more nice options on Windows and is also available for Mac.

Give it a try, I do not think you will be disappointed: free version, $29.95 version.
