Windows 10: Issues while recording audio from Discord using Game Bar

Game Bar doesnt record mic or other people im talking to through discord when turned on "All" but when turned on "game only" it records mic but doesnt record my system sound such as talking to people through discord.


I use the "Record That" feature to get highlights of funny moments that happen while gaming but I like to have my voice and the person im talking to's in the recording, otherwise I would just use OBS to record something.

Choppy audio in videos recorded through Game bar

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that the game audio is choppy in the recording. This generally happens when the recording is not ended correctly. We can try restarting the service for Game bar and see if that helps in resolving the issue. Please follow the steps mentioned
below:

1. Close the game and Game bar.
   
2. Press and hold Ctrl + Shift + Esc
   keys together to open Task Manager.
   
3. Click on More details.
   
4. Look for BcastDVRUserService, and click on
   End Task.
   
5. Restart the game and try recording again.
   

You can change the settings how the audio is recorded and see if that helps in resolving the Audio issue. Please navigate to
Settings (Windows key + I) >> Gaming >> Captures >> Recorded audio. You can change the Audio quality, and change the Microphone and System volume.


Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
