Recording does not work

Jteoh99 · Jul 15, 2019

I was using the game bar to record a game and was playing for 44 minutes. After I finished the game, I was about to stop the recording, when the game started to lag. The recording suddenly stopped and said the recording failed. I tried to see if the already
recorded footage was still there, but it was gone. Does this mean my entire recording is gone?

This does not work. Apex Legends records just fine. Warzone does not...

I appreciate your response but its rocket league and it does allow recordings because until i alt tab out to go to discord or something the recording works great. its only after the tab out does it record a blank screen

it does allow me to record more frequently since the may update on cod ghosts, but sometimes it wont work and i noticed when it doesnt work going to the main menu and back into the game fixes it. and the times it does not work there is no notification for
a clip even being recorded when i use the command "xbox record that" and then that command does not work and i try to manually record it with the dvr snapped i get an instant error code: 80004005, but since the update i never gotten the 0x80040212 error code
so i guess the may update was a step forward to the dvr feature always working.

When I first got my Xbox, the game DVR was flawless. Recording clips in PvZ, Bf4, and Titanfall. But lately the only time the DVR works is when im playing games offline, and it automatically records certain moments. But as soon as you go online or try to
manually record a clip in any form, it just wont respond. Yelling "xbox record that," the dialog box pops up, but does not record any amount of time, nor does the 5min-30sec manual record works. The Game DVR is more frustrating then anything!
