Bandicam freezes recording when I switch my HDMI

Sun Sep 22, 2024 7:11 pm

I have a 3 into 1 HDMI switch to use one screen for three computers.
I am using Bandicam to record from a USB Webcam for home security.
If Bandicam is recording when I switch away and come back the recording has frozen.
If I click stop recording and restart it will run ok until I switch again.
I have confirmed in file size and duration that Bandicam has actually stopped.
Any ideas ?
Windows 11
Bandicam 2024 / v 7.1.4.2458
If there is no resolution then Bandicam is not for me.

Hello ColinB,

If you switch the HDMI connection, the recording target's screen is lost, and the recording ends.
To avoid this, make sure to keep the screen displayed throughout the recording.

Thank you.

I am wanting to use Bandicam to monitor a security camera. On that basis Bandicam is not suitable for purpose.
What is the process for cancelling my license ?

Hello ColinB,

Since your serial number has already been registered, we are unable to offer a refund.
