[Solved] Bandicam doesn't detect BF3

[cadc]

so I got Battle Field 3 today from EA's Origin site, it was downloaded to PC, but it uses EA's Origin client to launch.

but that's besides the point, Bandicam doesn't pick up this game.. *sighs*

Hello cadc,

Your problems are as follows:

1. Battle Field3
Bandicam doesn't detect BF3 launched from EA's Origin Client

2. Hydrophobia prophesy
hydrophobia prophesy was when I was on Windows XP 32 bit, and it recorded everything fine.
I'm on Windws 7 Ultimate 64 Bit now, but it seems to loose game detection at times during the game (particularly in the beginning)
if I record while it looses detection of the game, the game stops responding, and I'm forced to close it.
Fraps doesn't have this issue

3. Minecraft
Bandicam doesn't detect minecraft
I need to reboot for Bandicam to detect games properly.

4. PSOBB (phantasy star online blue burst)
Bandicam can't dectect this game -> fraps can detect this game

I have tested the above games, but I couldn't reproduce your program.
I can record the games without any problems.

Please, let us know the following information:
1. OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit
2. Bandicam version:
3. Graphic card:
4. Can you see the green FPS? (BF3, Hydrophobia prophesy, and etc.)
5. Can you see the red FPS? (BF3, Hydrophobia prophesy, and etc.)
6. Can you click the 'Record' button of Bandicam? (BF3, Hydrophobia prophesy, and etc.)
7. Can you get the recorded file? (BF3, Hydrophobia prophesy, and etc.)
8. Which game can you record with DirectX/OpenGL window mode of Bandicam
9. What is your "detect" mean? Does it mean the green FPS?
- example1) Bandicam doesn't "detect" BF3
- example2) if I record while it "looses detection" of the game, the game stops responding, and I'm forced to close it.

1. OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit
2. Bandicam version: 1.7.5.166
3. Graphic card: Saphire Radeon HD 6850
4. Can you see the green FPS? BF3: Not at all - Hydrophobia: I can see the green FPS counter, but disappears and reapears at the beginning of game and seems to completely disappear during the first video cut scenes - PSOBB Is Detected fine now - Amnesia The Dark Descent is detected, but crashes when bandicam is recording.
5. Can you see the red FPS? BF3 can't see counter at all, for the rest, yes, but Hydrophobia again disapears and reapears, and when it disappears while recording, it crashes the game.
6. Can you click the 'Record' button of Bandicam? BF3 not at all - Hydrophobia: only when Bandicam detects the game - Amnesia: yes - PSOBB: yes
7. Can you get the recorded file? BF3 N/A, the rest yes
8. Which game can you record with DirectX/OpenGL window mode of Bandicam: All but BF3
9. What is your "detect" mean? Does it mean the green FPS?
- example1) Bandicam doesn't "detect" BF3: Yes
- example2) if I record while it "looses detection" of the game, the game stops responding, and I'm forced to close it.: Yes


Also, Fraps can Detect BF3 without missing a Beat.. in all games.. any chance this level of detection can be emulated? seems strange that Fraps can detect everything without a hassle, and Bandicam doesn't. Do you think I should reinstall bandicam?

I think part of the problem with loss of detection is that Bandicam doesn't seem to know how to handle changes in formats, obviously the 3D in Hydrophobia is a DirectX, but the cutscenes are like video files, which is different. (unless a codec for that particular format is missing, but then it wouldn't be able to play at all)

although it strikes me as odd that when I recorded this in windows XP (which only goes as high as DirectX9C, it had no detection problems...

[cadc]

I have a feeling I know why Bandicam can't record BF3 for me, probably due to Punkbuster hacking prevention software that must be installed with the Origin version of the game in order to play online..

Fraps can bypass this it seems

New version of Bandicam resolved this Issue.

Thanks!

Well, it misses now and then, but works most of the time
