    Cortana Record That Doesn't Always Work


    My Kinect stopped working a few months ago. Last week I picked a new one up and have since tried to use "Cortana Record That" while playing Battlefield 4. When I try sometimes Cortana will say "listening" then nothing, or it will say "I recorded that" but
    didn't actually record anything. I would say that it only works 2 out of 10 times.

    With my old Kinect (may it RIP) it worked all the time when I would say "Xbox record that".

    Has anyone else had this issue?

    :)

    Cortana sucks

    1. Preview members should post preview problems to preview forums.

    2. Cortana does not suck.

    3. Cortana is actually pretty accurate. Works for me 95% times. But different accents may get different results, so try to select right language options.

    4. To record game clips you need to say "Hey Cortana, record that". Previously it was "Xbox, record that". Not "resume" or "play".

    5. Also, if you do not like Cortana, You can always switch it off and use Kinect voice commands instead.

    6. But I agree with you that they should let us use our own word to activate commands. Or just let us choose between 3 different start commands "Xbox", "Cortana", "Hey Cortana".

    Hey cortana: record that

    Ever since the new ui update, whenever I record a clip, a big dialogue box pops up and doesn't allow me to interact with my game (diablo 3 in this case), until it is done recording. Before the update, it would record while I played. I don't see any setting
    to change it to go back to the way it was before.

    Cortana Record That Doesn't Always Work

    Sorry to hear it. There are a few things you can try here.

    1. Use a headset with the Cortana commands (remember that Cortana learns the more you use her so it may take a bit before she understands)

    2. Tap the guide button and then press X or Y to take a screenshot or record a clip

    3. Go to settings and turn Cortana off. The system will revert to the old Xbox commands

    Elite contoller shortcut

    Hi

    I don't think it's possible to do this on the elite controller please be aware the dashboard update that will be releasing soon makes recording game clips much faster, also if you plug a chat headset into the controller and activate Cortana the voice command
    of "Hey Cortana record that" will also work.

    Can't record

    Try the following things please:

    If you have Cortana set up - "Hey Cortana, Record that" or "Hey Cortana, take a screenshot" (can be used with Kinect or a headset)

    If you use Xbox commands - "Xbox Record That" or "Xbox take a screenshot" (used with Kinect only)

    Press the Guide button on your controller and select X or Y to take a screenshot or recording
