I've plugged my earphones to my MacBook. The OS recognizes the earphones' mic as an audio input device.

enter image description here

However, Quicktime screen recording doesn't seem to recognize that earphones' mic, how do I do?

  • What earphones are u using? Do they have a mic? – X_841 Sep 18 '22 at 16:29
  • @X_841 yes, they have a mic that works well on the same device with Windows – JJJohn Sep 18 '22 at 22:59
  • Basically the earphones have to implement the microphone in the particular way that Mac recognises (called TRRS), and evidently yours does not. See https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/90344/macbook-pro-mid-2012-microphone-input/90545#90545 – O'Rooney Sep 18 '22 at 23:26
  • @O'Rooney thanks for your comments, I've updated my OP. – JJJohn Sep 19 '22 at 00:07
  • Oh, yes, that is a curious situation. Perhaps QuickTIme is using older (or newer) APIs that don't work fully. – O'Rooney Sep 20 '22 at 04:20
