Recording and recording window/ game crashes

Tue Feb 11, 2014 4:01 pm

Hi guys,

I've purchased the full version of Bandicam, and wondering this
I play Grand Theft Auto IV and record using Bandicam.
However, GTA IV is prone to crashing.

If I'm recording and my GTA crashes, how do I stop the recording successfully without getting the error that the window/ recording window is not responding
It's happened before after 40 mins of recording, and then GTA crashes while recording is still in progress, there's 40 mins of footage down the toilet.
I'm asking how can I still stop/save that 40 min recording after GTA crashes?

Even if it crashes you can stop it with the rectangle button. You'll probably get an error, but you can still recover the video file with Bandifix. Open bdfix.exe, point out the broken file and wait.

I never knew this!
Thanks!

If I'm recording, GTA crashes, and I start it up again, am I able to start recording again, or will I have to stop the recording using the button, and then restart again?

Hello!

You may try the Auto Complete Recording function of Bandicam.

You'll have to stop it (and fix it later) as Bandicam will be hooked on the previous (crashed) target.
