I'm trying to record a voiceover using a USB microphone in PowerDirector 14, but every time I open the device settings, a pop-up comes up that says "The parameter is incorrect." The microphone also won't show up under Audio Device or Audio Input.

I've tried several other programs that use the mic and it works fine. I've also used the trial version of PowerDirector 18 with the exact same settings and I've been able to record fine with that. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the PD14 program, all to no avail.

I've been using this mic with PD14 for a while now and I've never had an issue until a few days ago, and I'm fairly certain I didn't change any settings to cause it. Any ideas what the problem might be? I'm completely at a loss.

See this post and check your settings while PD14 is opened: https://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/78651.page#322840 .I don't have a usb mic. It is built in my webcam.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it, still nothing :/
