Got a problem, it's been driving me nuts for days, figured I'd try asking here. ;D
I wanted to record some PC gameplay as a thank you for an early Xmas gift, noticed that the final raw videos recorded had no sound. Checked all Fraps settings, it is set to record Windows sound. Tried out a bunch of other programs (other video recorders, a couple audio things like Audacity) and nothing is capturing Windows sound.
My PC is recently reformatted, but I have done this plenty of times using the exact same hardware and software setup before.
All my drivers are up to date (though as of my most recent update, I have even lost the Stereo Mix option in the Recording devices section, not that enabling it got me anywhere.
) though I know on previous installs I was able to record as soon as installing Windows, my graphics driver and Fraps, nothing else. Just weirding me out, and getting so frustrated cause I can't find the problem. :/
Using Windows 7 64 Bit, Asus P6X58D-E motherboard and MSI N460 GTX Cyclone
Just about ready to reformat again in the hopes that it randomly fixes itself, wanted to see if I could get any advice first on what to try, or what could be the problem here. As of right now nothing is showing up under Recording Devices - I have "show disabled devices" ticked, but all that's there is 2 Unplugged Microphones and Line In from the HD Audio Device that comes with the graphics card.
Oh, one other infuriating detail; after rebooting my PC, if I open some video file and Fraps, and record that file, the raw recorded footage will have audio. But any further attempts (or capturing audio from a game) will fail to capture any audio, and even trying that same file again will result in a silent recording, have to reboot again for another try. What is that all about? XD
