H264 AMD APP Doesn't record the game Squad.

Sat Mar 25, 2017 11:41 pm

So I'm trying to record the game Squad http://steamcommunity.com/app/393380/. But each time I press record it doesn't work. I get a bandicam error saying the codec doesn't initialise. Changing the codec to something else means it does work. Just not the AMD codec. I tried updating badicam to the latest version and it still didn't work.

It used to work about a month ago. But the game Squad has updated and now it doesn't work.

Hi Lemonater47,

Please check your resolution setting.
If it is over 1080p, please change it to under 1080p and try recording again.
We get the "Codec failed to initialize" error message if the width is over 2048 or the height is over 1112 on video format settings of Bandicam when using H264(AMD APP).
It is a limitation of AMD APP which supports up to 1080p.

Thank you.

My settings are as follows.

Works in other games. Just not Squad. The only thing I've changed is changing it from MP4 to AVI and it still doesn't work with the AMD APP.

Squad is in Unreal 4 and also uses Easy Anti Cheat. If that helps any. EAC being that preventative anti hack software that has been known to interfere with streaming/recording and even has issues with the Steam overlay at times. Though I've been playing another game that also uses EAC fine with bandicam.

Hello Lemonater47,

Thank you for your feedback.

Could you try version 2.3.3.860 of Bandicam from http://www.filehorse.com/download-bandi ... -versions/?
Also if possible, please rollback the AMD graphics card driver to ver.16.3.2 and try it again.

We look forward to your reply.
Thank you.
