This Skyrim video is uploaded by Bandicam user.

- Title: Bandicam Test Recording Skyrim (Registered Version)

- Uploaded by GameplayDump on Nov 16, 2011

- Comment: This was recorded using the payed-for version of Bandicam. There was no compiling or re-rendering done after recording. The file ended up being 330 MB.

Bandicam 1.7.5.166 (Registered)

Video Format: MPEG-1 (VBR)

Full Size, 30.00fps, 50q

Audio: MPEG-1 L2

48.0KHz, stereo, 192kbps

Video Resolution: 1440x900

One thing to note is that the audio format MPEG-1 L2 didn't work in Sony Vegas Pro 10 for me. Use PCM instead if you use Vegas for editing.
