    Xbox Game Bar not recording audio


    Today and yesterday, I attempted to record a game, but after checking the recording, it didn't record the INGAME audio. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Xbox Game Bar audio controls don't affect game volume?

    I Think with the audio Controls In Xbox Game Bar Affect the Transmission and recording gameplayers, but no affect the game volume, for that you need change in game

    windows game bar video playback has no sound

    Hello m-will3427,

    Thank you for reaching out to us about your issue!

    Have you tried adjusting your "Audio to record" settings in Xbox Game Bar?

    Open Xbox Game Bar

    Click the "Settings" icon (Gear icon)

    On the left panel of the settings window, select "Capturing"

    Under the "Audio to record" section, enable either the "Game" or the "All" settings.

    In this case, using the "All" setting may be more beneficial to you as you're recording a presentation, not a game.

    How to record Game Bar overlay while recording with Game Bar itself?

    Hello AdidasPK,

    We appreciate you for sharing this with us and welcome to Xbox Forums.

    We understand that you are having trouble recording Game Bar overlay while recording with Game Bar itself. I'll be happy to assist you with this.



    To record Game Bar overlay while recording with Game Bar itself, you need to enable the "Record game clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar" option in the Game Bar settings. Here are the steps to do so:



    1. Press the Windows key + G to open the Game Bar.

    2. Click on the Settings icon (gear icon) on the Game Bar.

    3. In the Game Bar settings, make sure that the "Record game clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar" option is turned on.

    4. Also, make sure that the "Record audio when I record a game" option is turned on if you want to record audio along with your gameplay.

    5. Once you have enabled these settings, you can start recording your gameplay by pressing the Windows key + Alt + R.



    Please note that not all games support Game Bar overlay recording. If you are having trouble recording Game Bar overlay while recording with Game Bar itself, it could be due to the game not supporting this feature. You can check the game's display settings to see if there are any options related to Game Bar overlay recording.

    I hope this helps. If you have any further questions or concerns, please let me know.

    Game Bar Does Not Record my voice during party chat

    Hi Mbathula,

    Thanks for coming to the forums with your question. With recording your voice it will not do this through the game bar itself. You either have to do it through the Xbox companion app or have a capture card. As this guide for

    setting up streaming windows 10
    shows it will only record from the Microphone on the PC not the headset.

    Recorded audio

    Record game play with or without sounds from your game and your microphone, and choose the audio quality.

    • To record game sounds with your game clips, turn on Record audio when I record a game.
    • To choose a different audio quality than the default, select the Audio quality box and choose one of the options.
    • To record through your microphone, turn on Record audio when I record a game.
    Thanks,

    Brad

    Xbox Gamebar not recording audio from web (works with any other app except chrome and edge)

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today JayJay22_342

    This is normal buddy, I mean. Game bar blocks audio for Edge.

    Probably this is to avoid DRM or copyright (you know, recording videos or movies watched on the browser)

    The short answer is, game bar is working as expected. It doesn't record audio from browser

    Hope it helps, greetings!
