Possible malfunction in xbox caption management

michaelbyrd130 · May 31, 2019

Hi i'm IceKoolWolf3000 as i'm known on xbox live. I'm also an xbox ambassador. Lately i've discovered/noticed a not so good function in y (manage captures) option on my xbox one. When i'm recording my game play and caturinga game pic shot the game clips
and capture section tend to become filled 2 capacity where i'd get a message during gaming that i need to delete some of them before any new captures can be saved/stored. The problem begins when I go 2 "manage captures" I play each one before I dicide 2 delete
or share them, but before I could finish sharing a game clip while it's playing the screen automatically goes back 2 the xbox home screen and with a lenghty delay at a blank screen I may add. Now is this normal, or is it because of any xbox updates that may
be causing this "malfunction" or is it time for an xbox overhaul???? This is fuustraating. Can anyone respond 2 this problem to which i'm serching 4a soolution that may help others in the future who may encounter the same problem.. Thx

:)

Hello Michael!

I found a few things as far as capturing goes:

Clip resolution is fixed at 4K HDR for certain games on Xbox One X—even if you’ve selected a lower default resolution.

At 4K HDR, game clips can be up to 30 seconds when capturing to your console’s internal storage.

To allow longer clips for the game you’re playing now, or to record at lower resolution, turn off HDR in Settings > Display & sound > Video output > Advanced
video settings.

Another way to record longer clips is to capture to external storage. Press the Xbox button to open to guide, then go to Settings > Preferences > Broadcast
& capture > Capture location. Depending on available storage, external clips can be as long as 60 minutes.

Not sure if this was the exact answer you were looking for but I'm still researching any possible solutions.

Hi, check your tv settings for something named Closed Captions or something similar and turn that off. Also check the closed captions option on the xbox itself.

Thanks for confirming this info. I can understand why you prefer not to have subtitles when these aren’t needed as it can often be distracting.

If this is affecting multiple streaming apps, closed captions is probably enabled in the console settings. Refer to:

Change closed captioning settings on your Xbox console | Xbox Support

If it’s actually the settings in the Prime Video app and possibly even other apps, uninstalling and reinstalling the apps should reset all the app settings to default. It’s generally the developers’ responsibility to address any issues with their apps, not Microsoft/Xbox, so they would need to resolve it in an update if it’s something on their side.

This is unlikely, but just to be sure - see if the subtitles still appear when signed in to a different Amazon account (or perhaps another profile on the same account) if possible and try the same for the other apps.

If this continues, report the problem so the Xbox team can look into this further. You may add [Xbox Forums] to the title of the report, then share this here once complete. Thanks!
