Hello, today we will see how to edit audio to a video between recorded from our desktop. First, we will record the video from our desktop using CamStudio software, like I have explained in the previous video. We will open CamStudio and when recording the video you can choose to record audio along using the microphone for your own voice or the speakers for recording what the computer plays. Before doing this you choose this option from the menu like that. You can choose to record audio from speakers or from microphone. If like on my laptop your computer is too slow to record the audio along with the video you can record only the video and add the sound later. To record only the sound use a sound recorder which is provided along with windows, you can open it from the accessories menu from the entertainment submenu. You just hit the record button, record the message you want to. Record, and then you press stop. After that you just do the following to save the file to disc then you have a wav file which holds the audio. Now you can stop the video recording and add the sound to the video using Windows Movie Maker which is also provided along with windows. When we open the movie maker, it looks like that and with the video file and the sound file onto the right upper panel just like that then drag the video file down to the place for the video which is right here and then the sound file to the place of the sound, which is right here. This is all you need to do. After that you just create the merged file using the file menu and then just ask the movie maker to render the final file for us using this simple Wizard. It takes a few seconds, maybe a little more if it is a long video and Walla, here is our final file ready to play.
