    Changing the resolution of screen captures in Xbox Game Bar


    I'm confused as any time I try to record games, the resolution is completely broken. I can't find out how to fix this issue and, to go into detail,I can see the screen in the left corner but below and to the right of it is just black boxes. I only recently discovered this issue when I got a new monitor, so I'm thinking it's something to do with that. Would appreciate if I could get some help, thanks.

    :)

  2. Unable to "move" Captures folder for Xbox Bar Captures

    Thanks for the reply!

    I am unable to follow those steps. As I mentioned, there is no "Captures" folder. It points directly to the temp folder, and there is no Captures folder for me to edit. When I go into the properties on the temp folder, I have no "location" tab, so nothing can be changed.

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    For better clarity, please let us know:



    • Which application are you using to record the screen?
    • Are you aware of any changes made to the computer recently?
    • Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently? To check type:
      winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
      Enter.


    If you are using Game Bar to record the screen, I suggest you to refer the steps mentioned below:



    Change Game Bar settings:



    I would suggest you to change the capture settings for Game Bar and see if that helps. Refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows Logo key + I, to open
      Settings.
    2. Click on Gaming.
    3. Click on Captures on the left pane.
    4. Under Recorded video, change the
      Video frame rate
      to 60 fps.
    5. Now, set the Video quality to
      high
      from the drop down.


    Change the game video settings:



    You may also want to change the video settings for the game to full screen windowed mode.



    Check Xbox Game Monitoring service:



    1. Press Windows Logo key + R, to open
      Run dialog box.
    2. Type services.msc and click on
      OK
      .
    3. Scroll down and look for Xbox Game Monitoring, and see if the service is running.
    4. If the service is not running, right click on the service and select
      Start.


    For additional information, see
    Troubleshoot Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10
    .



    Let us know the results.

  4. Changing the resolution of screen captures in Xbox Game Bar

    Xbox Game Bar / Game Capture

    Hello,

    I am having an issue with the Xbox Game Bar captures. I try to record 3 min. clips of events that happen in game. When I go in my files to review the video, the video does not play. Looks like a screen capture of the video and only audio plays. I have
    tried this on two different video game titles. In one game it works, but does not work on the other game. Anyone else have this issue or knows how to resolve it? Thank you for your time.

    - Ryan
