Game DVR Since October Update

Hi,

I love my Xbox 1 S and use it every day. I particularly enjoy making videos of my gaming on the hardest difficulty settings and uploading the videos to Youtube. I feel proud of my achievements. Since the October update the functionality of game dvr has suffered.

I can no longer 'cancel' a video. This feature is important. I estimate that around sixty to seventy percent of my videos are fails whereupon my character dies and I must redo what I am attempting. In this situation I would 'cancel' the video so that it
DOES NOT save and then I can start over again. Currently only a 'stop' option is available for ending game dvr videos, whereby the video stops, saves, and must be manually deleted. This process is tedious and eats into my all important gaming time. Please
re-implement the 'cancel' option for game dvr. The previous option of hitting the guide button and then hitting the blue x button worked excellently.

When using Upload Studio I select particular filters. The filters are there for a reason; to filter and streamline interactions. When going into the current video I am making, doing some stuff, then selecting a second video to 'stitch' to the first one,
all filters disappear. This is frustrating and unnecessary. For whatever reason the Xbox cannot 'remember' my filters.

Thanks for giving us the option to make 1080p videos. It's great. However, 2 minutes is very short, too short. I would very much appreciate being able to make 5 minutes videos. Perhaps 1080 p could be at 5 mins and 720p at 10 minutes. I think this is a reasonable
request.

Thanks for being excellent.

Kind regards,

How do I record a game clip without using a voice command?

As McFly said above, barring Smartglass, the voice option is all there is until October. When the October update launches to the public, by double-tapping the Xbox Home button on your controller, it brings up the "Snap Center" in which you will be able to
choose "Game DVR" to run snapped next to your active game.

 

Game DVR broken since update.

This works however it only works if the game is started first...

Then you can use snap which will then show and not be greyed out.

The same applies to take a screenshot or record that

*Some games do not allow game DVR until you reach a certain screen but other than that, launch a game and while gaming double tap....if you see the options to record or take screenshot then you'll also see the options to snap game DVR and record

*always make sure your profile is assigned to the controller (it's actually possible to play a game by not have the profile assigned). I know...weird
