Opivv
MIC + SYSTEM AUDIO

A screen recorder with audio that actually captures sound

Two kinds of audio matter: your voice on the microphone, and whatever the page is playing. Opivv records both, so your clip never comes back silent. Add it to Chrome, Edge, or Brave and share a link the moment you stop.

In three steps

How it works

1

Add Opivv to Chrome

One click from the Chrome Web Store. Pin it so the record button sits in your toolbar.

2

Pick what to record

This tab, a window, your whole screen or just an area. Turn your camera and mic on or off.

3

Stop and share

The link is copied the second you stop. Paste it into Slack, email or a ticket.

Your voice, on a toggleThe microphone is a switch in the recorder panel. Flip it on to narrate, leave it off for a silent capture. Pick your input before you start so you never record the wrong mic.
Tab and system audioWhen you record a browser tab, the sound that tab is playing is captured with it: video, a call, a demo, a music player. Nothing is routed through a virtual cable or a separate app.
Both at onceTalk over the thing you are showing. Your mic and the page audio land in the same track, so viewers hear the demo and your commentary together, in sync.
Webcam bubble with itAdd a camera bubble in the corner while you narrate. Face plus voice plus screen is what turns a raw capture into something a teammate will actually watch.
Share link, no file wranglingOn stop, the clip uploads and a link is copied to your clipboard. Viewers press play in the browser with sound intact, no account and nothing to install.
Audio becomes text on ProPro turns the audio you captured into an AI transcript, a summary, and a smart title, so a spoken walkthrough is searchable and skimmable afterwards.

Audio capture is not paywalled: mic and tab sound are both on the free plan. Your video is never watermarked into the pixels. On the free plan the public share page and embeds carry a small 'Made with Opivv' badge on the player, and Pro removes it.

The two kinds of audio people mean

When someone searches for a screen recorder with audio, they mean one of two things and usually both. The first is microphone audio: your voice, narrating what is on screen. The second is system or internal audio: the sound the computer itself is making, like a video playing in a tab, a notification chime, or the other person on a call.

These are separate streams and they are captured in separate ways. The microphone is a device your browser asks permission to use, so in Opivv it is a simple toggle in the recorder panel. Turn it on, choose your input, and speak. Tab and system audio is different: it comes attached to the thing you picked to record. Choose a browser tab and the sound that tab is playing rides along with the picture.

That is why the answer to "can I record my screen and the sound at the same time" is yes, but the setup matters. Opivv keeps both controls in one place so you can see, before you hit record, exactly which audio is switched on.

Why recordings come back silent, and how to avoid it

The most common failure with any screen recorder is a finished clip with no sound. It almost always has one cause: system audio was never shared in the first place. Browser-based capture asks you to pick a source, and the option to include that source's audio is a checkbox in that picker. Miss it and you get perfect video with silence underneath, which you only discover on playback.

The second cause is the microphone. Either it was left off, or the browser grabbed the wrong input, a headset that was unplugged or a webcam mic pointing at the ceiling. Some people also record the wrong scope: full-screen capture and window capture are about the picture, so if the sound you need is coming from a web page, recording that tab is the reliable choice.

Three habits fix nearly all of it. Choose the tab when the sound lives in a tab. Tick the share-audio option in the picker instead of clicking past it. Check that the mic toggle is on and pointed at the right device before you start, not after. Then record ten seconds, stop, and play it back once. A short test costs less than re-recording a twenty-minute walkthrough.

Frequently asked

Yes. Microphone audio and tab audio are both on the free plan, with no credit card. The free limits are on length and quality, not sound: recordings run up to 5 minutes at 720p with 200 MB of storage, and free recordings are kept for 30 days. Pro ($5/month) raises that to 2 hours at 1080p or source quality with no expiry.
