  2. On Edge browser, the bing.com background "video" plays slower than in IE 11

    Thanks for the reply.

    The steps did not help much.

    On my computer (Windows 10, 12GB, I7) I have tried test drive

    http://www.flightarcade.com/missions/tin/play

    Result:

    • Noticeably choppy on IE 11 and Edge,
    • I can not blame the OS or Hardware because the test drive game plays smooth on FF and Chrome on the computer

    My other computer which has IE 11 on Windows 7 plays the flight game very smooth.

    Thanks.

    Xbox Game Bar Not Recording Mic But It Should

    I use the Xbox Game Bar to record the last 10 minutes of the game in the background. It should also record my microphone, but it doesn't do it properly. When I click to record my last 10 minutes of the game, the recording is saved with the system sound (including in-game sounds and Discord). However, my microphone was not recorded. It's not a problem with the microphone, because my friends can hear me in Discord, teammates in the game can hear me in voice chat too. Even if I don't use Discord or voice chat, it doesn't record my mic. The only way to get around this is to manually turn off the microphone in XGB and then turn it on (I usually just do this with a hotkey). The problem is that usually I forget to do it and get a recording without my voice. However, this is not how it should work. If I set my microphone to be on by default, it should record my voice initially, whithout my interruptions by manually restarting the mic.

    Has anyone encountered this problem? How can it be solved?

    FYI:

    • In XBR settings Record in the background while I'm playing and Show microphone recording notifications are set ON.
    • In Audio to record it is set All (Game, enabled mic, apps, system).
    • In Windows Settings there are only two enabled Recording devices: my headphones mic (HyperX Cloud Alpha S Chat) and built-in laptop mic (Realtek Audio). The HyperX Cloud Alpha S Chat is set as a default recording device (format: 1 channel, 16 bit, 48 MHz), Realtek Audio is just active. However it doesn't matter, if built-in mic active or not, the problem still exists.
    • In Games in Windows Settings Record audio when record the game is set ON. Quality is set to 192 Kbit/s, Mic audio is set to 100, System audio is set to 50.
    • Windows, XGB and headphones driver are up-to-date (Windows 11 Pro 22621.819 and Xbox Game Bar 5.822.10271.0 and HyperX Cloud Alpha S firmware v4.1.1.0).

    Trouble using a built in bluetooth headset with mic while playing games in Windows 10

    Hello,

    I really need help with my bluetooth headphone for playing games in Windows 10!

    I can´t use both speakers and mic while playing games in windows 10. If I want to use the speakers I need to go in Task Bar > Sounds (right click) and deactivate the recording devide of the headset. After doing that, the sound becomes normal and I can use
    it in game, but only the speakers.

    Another important thing to say is that If let the mic activated, only when I get in a online match inside the game the speaker sound turns off! But in the game menu the sounds works fine.

    I tested the mic in Windows 10 using cortana and it works. Also the speakers. I mean, in windows 10 I can use both of them simultaneously. Only inside games I have problems.

    Any suggestions? Please this is really annoying, since I bought this bluetooth headset for playing online using the mic.

    Thank you!
