Windows 10: Microsoft Game bar picking up other all audio instead of just game audio

So, i was using game bar's 30 seconds replay thing to get a clip, while i had my music in the background but then when i watched it thought I noticed it captured everything and not just the game.

:)

 

How to make sure Game Bar only records game audio, and not audio from other apps?

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you want to record the in game audio only and mute the audio from other apps.



You can change the game bar settings to record only the game audio. To do that follow the steps mentioned below.

1. Press Windows key +
   G to launch Game Bar.
   
2. Click on Settings (Gear icon).
   
3. Click on Capturing.
   
4. Under Recording, select the check box for
   Record in the background while I’m playing a game.
   
5. Under Audio to Record, select the Radio button for
   Game. (If you are still unable to get Audio, select the Radio button to All).

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.
