In VideoFunnel, while recording your video, you need to Allow Permission to Camera and Microphone. Once you click on recording, a pop-up will appear which asks you to allow access to these. If you have denied it at that time, then no issues, you can allow access from the settings of your browser.


There are different steps to allow access to Camera and Mic on different browsers. In this tutorial, I am going to instruct you on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari Browsers.


Before that, here’s a small shortcut to get the required permissions:


Click the ? lock icon in your browser’s address bar, set the correct permissions, and then refresh this page.
