How to record your webcam

Here's all you need to know about recording your webcam with Jumpshare. 

Express yourself better by recording your webcam along with your screen using Jumpshare Desktop app. Use different webcam modes, backgrounds and even go full-screen with your webcam.

How do I record my webcam with my screen?

1. Click on the Record button at the top of the Jumpshare desktop app.

2. When the recording window appears, click on the webcam icon on the bottom left to enable it.

   

3. Choose your preferred webcam size mode, camera style and hit Record.

Customize Your Camera Background

You can choose from multiple camera styles when recording. To get started, begin a screen recording, hover over the webcam, and click the Effects icon in the controls below. From there, you can customize your camera background to match your preferences.

Here’s the full list of new ways you can customize your appearance on camera.

• Blurred backdrop – Blur your background instead of replacing it with an image.
• Built-in backgrounds – Choose from several clean office scenes, beautiful gradients, and solid colors.
• Custom backgrounds – Pick a background from your system or stock image repositories.
• Auto-lighting – Automatically improve visibility in poor lighting conditions.
• Face touchup – Look your best on camera with a customizable skin-smoothing filter.

How do I choose a different webcam?

If you've got more than one webcam connected to your system, Jumpshare will show you all the available recording devices in the pop-up menu that appears when you click on the little camera icon at the bottom of your recording window. Take your pick and hit Record.

Can I flip my webcam?

Yes, you can. Click on the little camera icon at the bottom right of your recording window and select/deselect Flip Webcam. Usually, your webcam is flipped by default for a better experience, but you can always flip it again.

How do I disable my webcam?

In case of a bad hair day, since we all have those, you can disable your webcam bubble entirely before recording. Head to the webcam icon at the bottom of the recording window and click on it to open the pop-up menu. Click on None to disable your webcam. You'll have to enable it again the next time you open the Jumpshare recording window.
