Recording with Game bar while streaming?

FACEFACE 02 · Jan 13, 2017

So I'm trying to use the game bar while I'm streaming my Xbox to my PC to record some video clips. They're usually around 7-9 minutes long. The voice from my headset is very clear the whole way through, however, the image gets this blur that kind of "crawls"
up the screen from the bottom. And eventually it takes over the whole screen making these blurry lines all down the screen. It's fine until about 1 and a half minutes in. It streams just fine, with no image quality issues. It's only when I record it using
the game bar.

Game bar not opening in Microsoft Office 2016 using Win + g command

Hi there,

My game bar is not opening when using the Win + g command in Microsoft Office 2016. I have checked the game bar settings and made sure the recording option is turned on.

Game bar Can't record GeForce 610

Hello All. I recently clean Installed Windows 10 on a new Hard Drive because my Windows 7 Hard Drive broke. I use Action to record but I hear you can record with the Game Bar and Publish it to Youtube. I decided to give it a go. I launch Minecraft 1.9 (Java
Edition) and do Win+G and the Game Bar Opens. I go to record and It tells me I can't because I don't have a 600 Series GeForce Card? I have a GeForce 610 on a Desktop, I think you need 800m for Laptops. Any idea how to solve?

Specs-

Intel Core 2 Duo E6400

Nvidia GeForce 610

4GB Ram

Java 1.8

DirectX 12 (Of Course)

1920x1080 60hz Monitor

When not recording I get 60+FPS in Minecraft, While recording I get 25-FPS. What would my Estimated FPS Be while using this Game Bar?

Hi SHNIDER,

Thank you for coming to the forums. Are you referring to hiding the task bar at the bottom of the screen where notifications appear as well?

I'm not sure if you can hide the task bar completely but you can toggle it so that it disappears unless you scroll your mouse over it. You can also manage other taskbar settings by following these steps:

Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar. (If you're in tablet mode, hold a finger on the taskbar).
Click taskbar settings.
Toggle Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode to on. (You can also do the same for tablet mode).

I hope this helps!

Hello AdidasPK,

We appreciate you for sharing this with us and welcome to Xbox Forums.

We understand that you are having trouble recording Game Bar overlay while recording with Game Bar itself. I'll be happy to assist you with this.

To record Game Bar overlay while recording with Game Bar itself, you need to enable the "Record game clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar" option in the Game Bar settings. Here are the steps to do so:

1. Press the Windows key + G to open the Game Bar.

2. Click on the Settings icon (gear icon) on the Game Bar.

3. In the Game Bar settings, make sure that the "Record game clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar" option is turned on.

4. Also, make sure that the "Record audio when I record a game" option is turned on if you want to record audio along with your gameplay.

5. Once you have enabled these settings, you can start recording your gameplay by pressing the Windows key + Alt + R.

Please note that not all games support Game Bar overlay recording. If you are having trouble recording Game Bar overlay while recording with Game Bar itself, it could be due to the game not supporting this feature. You can check the game's display settings to see if there are any options related to Game Bar overlay recording.
