  1. Game Bar captures not recording in the correct size


    Whenever I record videos using Game Bar on Windows 10, it records my gameplay but when I view it later on, the video is shrunk to the top left corner of the space it plays in. This wasn't always the case, it started happening several months ago. It only happens for video clips, not screenshots. This issue occurs both in the Xbox Console Companion and in Game Bar. Has this happened to anyone else? Can it be fixed?

    :)

  2. Xbox Game Bar Capture Doesn't Record Mic Audio

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are facing issues while recording microphone audio using game bar while playing games.



    I would suggest you to try troubleshooting Game Bar and see if that helps. Refer the article

    Troubleshoot Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10




    In addition, you can also check if the Microphone for game bar is enabled under privacy settings.



    1. Go to Settings (press Windows +
      I key together) > Privacy.
    2. On the left hand pane scroll down and look for
      Microphone
      .
    3. Toggle Allow apps to access Microphone
      to ON.
    4. Under Choose which Microsoft Store app can access your Microphone toggle Xbox game bar to
      ON.
    5. Restart the game bar.


    If the issue persists, please get back to us with details of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.

    Game Bar Capture: Audio Failed to Record

    I recently attempted to record a lengthy screen capture (~2 hours) in a Chrome browser using Game Bar's Capture feature. I ensured only one window was open so that it would record the correct content, and I also checked that the audio device was selected properly
    so that my PC's internal audio would be captured. Prior to recording, I ran a test using the exact same conditions and everything worked properly. However, after recording the real session, the video file that was saved has no audio at all when played back,
    despite my test not having this problem and the fact that I was able to hear everything properly in real-time. I immediately ran another test without changing any settings, and audio was recorded properly in the same window that I had just used. Any idea why
    this might have occurred?

    XBOX GAME BAR RECORDINGS

    Hello, a couple days ago I've been able to use to the game bar without any problems. I have recorded game play and the recordings were saved onto my computer in its true resolution (1920x1080). Now whenever I record my game play the recordings are saved
    with a weird resolution. The recording has been shrinked and moved to the top left corner of the screen with a large black bar on the bottom and right of the screen. I can see the whole game play but the game play is just shrinked for some reason. How can
    I fix this issue and save my recordings in its actual size which is full screen. I have tried many things to fix this. I tried updating the xbox game bar app, I tried resetting the app, I tried repairing the app. I think what caused this is the latest windows
    2004 update. I updated windows a couple days ago. I also have the game bar capture settings to 60fps and High video quality. I don't understand what caused this issue with the captured videos.
