Bandicam Parameters not working

Tue Mar 31, 2020 6:27 pm

Hi everyone,

We’re using Bandicam version 4.1.0.1362. We regularly see that Bandicam is no longer running on the pc's that we've installed it, which is very annoying because we use Bandicam to see what our users do to get certain error messages. The causes of Bandicam not working are usually user related. :-)

Now we would like to be sure that Bandicam keeps running, so we would like to make use of the bandicam command line parameter "/record" -> We would like to execute this command eg. every half an hour with a scheduled task in Windows so that, if Bandicam is no longer running or recording, it starts recording again. So we would lose at the most half an hour of video.

I have tried to start the recording from a cmd window (even with elevated privileges) with this parameter, but it doesn't do anything...I also tried the other command line parameters like “/stop” but it doesn’t work either. Any ideas what is going wrong?

Thanks for the feedback!

Hello SteveM,

Command line parameter only works on Bandicam 4.1.4 or later.
Please install the latest version of Bandicam.

Thank you.

Hi,

thanks for your fast reply!

I downloaded the latest version and the commandline parameters now work with bdcam.exe but not with bdcam non-admin.exe . And we use the non admin version because the users have very limited rights on those computers.

Is there any way to use the command line parameters with the non-admin executable?

Thx for the feedback!

Kind regards

Steve

Hello SteveM,

Thank you for getting back to us.
We've confirmed that some commands such as start and stop are not supported with bdcam_nonadmin.exe.
You can use nosplash and reg commands with bdcam_nonadmin.exe.
We've forwarded your request to our development team.

Thank you.

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback.

Would it also be possible to make the changes so that if the /record parameter is given, that the state of Bandicam is checked? So if Bandicam is minimized to the system tray at the time that the command is given, that Bandicam remains minimized, otherwise it will pop up each time we give the command, which will be annoying for our users + with the risk that they will close it again.

Could you also inform me about the time frame for this change request?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards

Steve
