Add HEVC and SDR Rendering

Tue May 09, 2023 4:24 am

Dear Bandicam Development Team

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to propose the addition of two essential features, namely HEVC encoding support for AVI files and the inclusion of SDR rendering, to be implemented in the upcoming update of Bandicam.

1. HEVC Encoding Support for AVI:
HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding) is a widely adopted video compression standard known for its ability to offer superior video quality while reducing file sizes. By integrating HEVC encoding support into Bandicam's AVI format, users will benefit from improved video compression efficiency, resulting in smaller file sizes without compromising visual fidelity. This feature would not only enhance Bandicam's capabilities but also align it with industry standards, enabling users to record and store high-quality videos more efficiently.

2. SDR Rendering:
Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) rendering is the traditional method of rendering colors and tones in video and images. While HDR (High Dynamic Range) content is gaining popularity, SDR remains the dominant format for viewing on most devices. By incorporating SDR rendering in Bandicam, users will have greater flexibility in capturing and producing content that is optimized for a broader range of playback devices and platforms. This feature would cater to the diverse needs of Bandicam's user base and ensure compatibility across a wide variety of screens and viewing environments.

Benefits and Market Demand:
The addition of HEVC support to AVI files will offer Bandicam users the following advantages:
- Reduced file sizes: HEVC encoding allows for more efficient compression, resulting in smaller video files without compromising quality.
- Improved video quality: HEVC's advanced compression techniques enable higher fidelity and reduced artifacts.
- Enhanced storage capacity: Smaller file sizes mean users can store and share more recordings without exhausting their storage resources.
- Better upload and transfer speeds: Reduced file sizes enable faster uploads and transfers, saving users valuable time.

Similarly, the integration of SDR rendering would provide the following benefits:
- Widened compatibility: SDR rendering ensures that Bandicam-recorded videos can be viewed on a broader range of devices, including older or non-HDR-compatible screens.
- Consistent viewing experience: SDR rendering guarantees a consistent visual representation of the recorded content, regardless of the playback device.
- Increased audience reach: With SDR rendering, Bandicam-produced content can be accessed by a larger audience, regardless of the display technology available to viewers.

Implementation Plan:
To incorporate these features effectively, the following steps can be followed:

1. Technical Development:
a. Conduct a comprehensive analysis of HEVC integration with the AVI file format.
b. Implement HEVC encoding algorithms for Bandicam's AVI recording functionality.
c. Perform rigorous testing and optimization to ensure stability and optimal performance.

2. User Interface Integration:
a. Integrate the HEVC option seamlessly into Bandicam's AVI recording settings.
b. Provide clear documentation and user guidance on utilizing the HEVC feature effectively.
c. Integrate the SDR rendering option within Bandicam's rendering settings.
d. Develop a user-friendly interface that enables users to select SDR rendering easily.

3. Testing and Quality Assurance:
a. Conduct extensive testing of the new features to identify and address any issues or bugs.
b. Collaborate with a group of beta testers to gather feedback and refine the implementation.
c. Ensure compatibility with different operating systems and configurations.

4.

Documentation and Release:
a. Prepare comprehensive documentation, including user manuals and FAQs, explaining the new features and their usage.
b. Release the updated version of Bandicam, highlighting the inclusion of HEVC support for AVI files and SDR rendering.

I believe that adding HEVC encoding support for AVI and incorporating SDR rendering into Bandicam will greatly enhance the product's functionality, user experience, and market competitiveness. These features align with industry standards and cater to the evolving needs of content creators and consumers.

Please consider this proposal for the upcoming update of Bandicam. I am confident that these additions will contribute to the continued success and reputation of your software. Thank you for your time and attention.

Should you require any further information or if you would like to discuss this proposal in detail, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am available at your convenience.

Sincerely,

TeleduCymru1962

P.S. I would also like to suggest that the next update of Bandicam include a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for users to take advantage of the new HEVC to AV1 compression and SDR rendering features. An intuitive interface would make it easier for content creators to get the most out of their video recordings and achieve the highest quality results. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
