    Hello!

    There are two cameras in a scene I am creating.
    I wanted to record the camera that is not the main camera in it, so I specified the camera to record with TaggedCamera.
    When I actually tried recording, a black image was recorded.
    I searched the forum for reports of similar symptoms, but I couldn't determine which one was true, as some people have solved the problem, some haven't, and some even say they can only record GameView. Someone please let me know what I am looking for. Thank you in advance.

    ●Is it because of the version of Unity Recorder?
    ●Is there a compatibility issue between the Recorder and the Editor?
    ●Is it possible that the Unity Recorder can only record Game View?
    ●If it is possible to record Tagged Camera, what should I pay attention to in the camera and other settings?

    My environment is as follows
    ●Windows 10 Pro
    ●Unity Recorder 2.5.7
    ●Unity Editor 2020.3LTS

    I am not good at English so I used machine translation.
    Sorry if some parts are hard to understand.

    Self resolved.
    I had two cameras assigned to Display1 and Display2 respectively, but by setting both to Display1 and adjusting the Depth value, it worked fine.
    I don't understand why this solution worked. is it a specification that only the camera showing on Display1 is able to record? Please let me know.

    Hello chiikawa84!

    When using Recorder to record a specific camera, it requires the game view associated with that camera to be visible. In your case, to record using the camera assigned to Display2, you need to select Display2 from the game view control bar.

    I hope this helps ! don't hesitate if you have any other question
