Windows 10: Xbox Game DVR can't record some games.

Well, I use the Xbox Game DVR a lot when I play, specially League of Legends and Ori and the Blind Forest.
But when I play Paladins, I can open de Game Bar, but te options of Win+G and Win+R don't work, it says that I can't record at the moment, and try again later.

This does not happens on almost every other game. Just Paladins and Overwatch, and I've even tried changing my graphics setting, etc.


I would like to know if there's a solution, or if I just can't use it.

Game DVR Glitched recording

We appreciate your reply. Here are methods on how to troubleshoot DVR issues:

Troubleshooting Steps:

Trouble shooter guides can be found at:

http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-on-windows/social/troubleshoot-game-dvr-windows-10

Try Full-Screen Mode:

Sometimes you'll get an error "There's nothing to record" when running a game in windowed mode. It'll refuse to run unless the game is in full-screen mode. You'll have to change the settings in your game to get it to fill screen. Another option is to
press Alt-Enter and that may switch it to full screen.

You won't see the game bar in full screen so you'll need to use your shortcuts to start/stop recording.

http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-on-windows/social/record-game-clips-game-dvr-windows-10

According to that article you need to press these keys in sequence to start recording. Other keyboard shortcuts won't work.

• Windows + Alt + G
• Windows + Alt + R

Restart GAME DVR Task:

• Open up the Task Manager (Right click on the taskbar and go to Task Manager OR Press Windows-X and then press T)
• Find the DVR Server task (bcastdvr.exe). Click it and go to End Task.

Delete Temporary Files:

• Open Settings App and go to System
• Go to Storage and choose This PC
• Scroll down and find Temporary files
• Click on it and then click on Delete temporary files.

This process may take a while to complete - it all depends on how many you have. Wait until it's complete and then reboot your PC and try again.

Change the Shortcut Keys:

Sometimes it's possible that the shortcut keys are blocked by another program - you can't record by pressing Windows + Alt + R for example.

You can change these or assign a secondary shortcut by:

• Start menu
• Xbox
• Settings
• Game DVR
• Keyboard shortcuts

Reinstall or Upgrade Your Graphics Card Drivers:

Visit your graphics card manufacturer's website, locate your model and download the latest drivers. Install/reinstall them, reboot and try the DVR again.

We hope this would do the trick, if anything else comes up, we're here to further assist
you.
