MagicYUV codec - Bandicam only uses 32 bit version!

Mon Feb 15, 2016 4:25 am

Hello dear people at Bandisoft!

I switched to using MagicYUV-Codec for my recordings lately and noticed that Bandicam only utilizes the 32-bit Version of the installed codec where Dxtory is capable of using either the 32- or 64-bit version of it.

The reason for switching from Lagarith to MagicYUV is it's better speed and quality.

Would you please explain to me why this limitation exists and fix it, so Bandicam can use the 64-bit version of the codec?

Thank you very much!

Hello!

As far as we know, if you play 64-bit games, you will be able to use the 64-bit version of the codec.

We have passed your report to the development team.

Thank you for letting us know.

You chose the codec before recording a game...

Selecting the codec it clearly states 32bit.

In Dxtory you can select 32bit AND 64bit.

It is a difference!

You can only see the 32-bit codec menu because Bandicam is running as a 32-bit version.
(Bandicam supports the 32-bit version and 64-bit version at the same time.)

If you play 64-bit games, you will be able to use the 64-bit MagicYUV codec.

It is the same as the external x264 codec.

<== As you can see, you can only select the 32-bit x264 codec (x264vfw).
However, if you play 64-bit games, you will be able to use the 64-bit x264 codec (x264vfw64).

Can I force Bandicam to run as 64bit version?
