BFIX File - Index file for MP4 recovery

A .bfix file is an index file that contains the index information of an MP4 file being recorded by Bandicam. This file is created and disappears automatically when you start or stop recording.

If Bandicam is abnormally terminated while recording due to power outage or other issues, open the output folder,

and double-click the .bfix file in the output folder. The broken .MP4 file will be repaired by BandiFix automatically.

Tip 1) Use AVI if file corruption occurs frequently

On some computers, file corruption occurs frequently due to a problem with the graphics card driver or hardware accelerated H.264 codec (Intel, Nvidia, AMD). In this case, reinstall your graphics card drivers and use the AVI file type and 'H264 (CPU)' video codec as shown below.

Tip 2) Send your video file

If you don't see a .bfix file, send us two video files to bandicam@bandicam.com.
* The first is the corrupted video file.
* The second is a short, approximately 10-second video recorded using the exact same settings as the broken file.
