Bandicam a high-performance, high definition lightweight video recording tool from South Korea. It is collectively known as the world’s three best game video recorders along with Fraps and Dxtory for masses of gamer. And Bandicam has many obvious advantages, is the first choice for many video recording enthusiasts.

Compared with other video recording software, the advantage of Bandicam is very obvious and important.

Second, the video file size recorded by Bandicam can be much smaller yet has the same quality level with similar tools. It allows to record very high-definition video with resolution up to 2560 x 1600 (which only full 1080p HD video can do this). In addition, when using Bandicam to record video you can add your own Logos, which supports BMP, PNG and JPEG formats.

Of course, in addition to being used for games, Bandicam is also able to record a particular area or the whole of your computer screen, YouTube video, online chat screen, PowerPoint, etc. Not only can keep similar to the original definition, the recorded video will have very high compression ratio in file size.

for European and American users:

  1. Add Bandicam program into your Firewall to block all its Internet connections (for network verification, or it will always annoy you with prompt “You are not registered. You need to purchase a Bandicam license from us.“, while, this does not affect the portableware’s work at all)
  2. Go to “C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\“, open the ‘hosts‘ file with Notepad and add the following lines to block its network verification in an additional way (or block this application with your firewall):
    • 127.0.0.1 bandicam.com
    • 127.0.0.1 ssl.bandisoft.com
    • 0.0.0.0 cert.bandicam.com (# shielding automatic updates)
  3. Done, just run Bandicam as administrator every time you use it

for Asian and other country users:

  • Just make sure to  run Bandicam as administrator every time you use it. That’s all.

*** Better way to run Bandicam as administrator is to right click “BandicamPortable.exe” -> Properties -> Compatibility -> check the “Run this program as an administrator” -> OK

*** Bandicam is very hard to portablize, just the same as many software from Asian countries.

// Prompts //
