    Game DVR screenshots get no save option


    So I made some really cool screenshots about two weeks ago. Since then, I had my xbox turned on and online several times for several hours. I do not get the option to save the images in Game DVR or Upload Studio. What can I do to make the save option appear?
    If everything else fails, how can I transfer my screenshots to a safe place?

    Clips also do not get a save option, but I can workaround this by trimming them, after which they are uploaded.

    Since a few days, some other screenshots show the same problem.

    :)

  2. Sharing/Screenshots

    Hello nnooggoodd,

    To take a Screenshot:

    1. While in game double tap the Xbox Button

    2. When the home screen appears press Y

    Note: if you do not get the option to take a screenshot after double tapping the xbox button you may need to reinstall Game DVR and/or your profile.

    To save a Screenshot:

    1. Open the Game DVR app

    2. With the screenshot you with to save/share press the menu button and select save/share from the menu

    Note: After taking a screenshot there is a delay before the screenshot can be saved or shared. During this time you will not see these options available.

    DVR/Upload not uploading my screenshots

    I have taken 4 screenshots from Lords of the Fallen and the DVR is just not sharing the images on the activity feed. When I press the menu button, the `Save` option is not even displayed - in fact, the only options I can see are `See Game Hub`, `Set image
    as background` and `Delete`.

    The screenshot upload was working before the April update.

    Does anyone know what to do to get DVR/Upload uploading and sharing my screenshots once again?

    Screenshot Feature No Longer Working

    When you double tap, do you see the option in the upper left, "X" for video "Y" for screenshot? Have you checked Game DVR to see if the screenshot actually saved and the console just didn't give you the notification? From the home screen press RT and select
    My games and apps then select Game DVR.

    Please tell me how to fix.

    Hi,

    For our understanding, you wanted to change the default saved folder of your captured videos and screenshot from Game DVR, is that correct?

    Meanwhile, to change where your game clips and screenshots are saved, you may follow the steps provided on this

    .

    If you need further assistance, feel free to post back anytime.

    Xbox One screenshots via UPLOAD

    I think that's a good idea to have as well as regular screenshots, but I don't think that should be the only way to take screenshots, mainly because I want high quality images. The Game DVR clips are 720p and the bit rate is low, which means that the video
    looks noticeably lower quality than the game itself. I want to be able to take a screenshot of a game and for it to be representative of how the game actually looks.

    If I was MS or a game developer/publisher, I'd want the screenshots to look as good as possible given that they'll be posted up on websites and gaming forums, plus game reviewers will probably use the feature too.

    It is a good idea though, because as you say, you might not get the shot you want by the time you've said "Xbox take a screenshot" and it's saved the image, so it would be handy to be able to capture stills from a Game DVR clip as long as that's not the
    only option.
