Bandicam

Bandicam is an application that allows you to record everything that happens on your computer screen. For example, you can record a game, a video chat, or create video tutorials on how to use various programs. It is possible to record the entire screen, individual rectangular areas, the area around the mouse cursor, games that use DirectX, OpenGL or Vulkan, and devices such as webcams and HDMI capture cards, with the output of video files of small size and good image quality. The application saves video as MP4 or AVI using codecs such as H.264, HEVC, MPEG-1, XviD and MJPEG and is able to create screenshots (and series of screenshots) and save them in JPEG, PNG and BMP formats.

Bandicam can use the hardware H.264, HEVC and AV1 encoders of NVIDIA, Intel and AMD graphics cards, which lowers the load on the processor and allows you to create smaller videos with decent picture quality. Besides, Bandicam can record high resolution video up to 4K Ultra HD (3840x2160). The application supports hotkeys, a webcam overlay, real-time drawing and scheduled recording, allows you to configure the parameters of the saved video, can automatically stop recording after a certain size or duration, and is able to automatically shut down the computer after the end of the recording process. The free version adds a watermark and limits each recording to 10 minutes.

Bandicam allows you to easily record high-quality videos of your computer screen, ideal for gaming, video tutorials, or video chats.
