Unable to capture system voice when screen recording in Chromebook

Follow
Daksh Singh

I have recently installed a Chrome OS via a neverware boot drive and I have seen an update in which we can record our screen from the little right bottom icon.  but I am unable to record the system sounds during the recording and have tried it various times.  there is no settings which I can change in order to change my system output. PLEASE REPLY ASAP.  

I am providing the link in which I am playing a song name Titanium from David Guetta but there is no voice as seen in the recording.

    The Recording thing doesn't record system sounds well at least not from You tube videos anyway.

    It does record microphone if you tell it to by hitting the setting button on the capture screen settings that appear.

    So either your sounds or microphone doesn't work or you have not told it to record microphone.

    What is model / spec of laptop using?

    If you click arrow next to volume controls when click clock can change input and output settings.

    I am using an Acer Aspire 7 with Ryzen 5 3550H and just used a USB to try this out.

    The next thing is that I don't want the microphone sound to be recorded and the microphone is working perfectly fine( i checked it ).

    What type of system sounds will be recorded then if it can't record YouTube videos?

    Can it record things like a zoom class or a Google meet class ?

    Thanks for replying, really appreciate it.

    I don't think it does any sounds unless microphone set to record also, I've not tested everything though.

    It's really not designed to record films or meetings because of privacy and piracy issue probably.

    The footage from your Chromebook’s screen recorder won’t include audio from any video or audio file you play, but you can add a live voiceover to it. For enabling mic input, click the cogwheel icon and toggle “Record microphone.” 

    There are other extensions in the link above that might work though, you'll have to try them yourself.

    So that Means that the audio will never be recorded and I will have to use third party Chrome addons for recording my zoom classes or Google meet classes?

    Yes third party, I have not tried any ever, you'll have to try yourself.

    If you can't find one that works then you might be better off installing Linux on this machine, as there probably is an app that will work.
