Fortnite game clips not recording with xbox game bar.

مرتضی · Apr 2, 2022

Whenever I record the last minute of my game clips on other games such as CSGO, the game can be seen normally and isn't just a screenshot. But when I take a recording on Fortnite, the clip only shows a picture of what I was doing or something else. The recording is just frozen with the audio playing normally, and it's stuck like that with only Fortnite. Any help would be appreciated.

Check your video settings, and your settings on Fortnite as well since it seems to be the only game with this issue.

What seemed to work for me was putting Fortnite in Windowed Full screen instead of fullscreen mode. So far so good.

Same problem. I can clip other games, but Fortnite only capturing a still not video. Audi is there, a still capture, but no video. I've repaired and reset game bar, still doesn't work.
