The option to record 1-hour 4K has disappeared (Xbox One X)

Poulpc · Oct 28, 2019

it has been working fine 4 way over a year, used it last on Tuesday (22/10) and it's working fine, but yesterday I wanted to record a 1 hour 4K clip from The Outer Worlds, and the option is gone it's only showing the 15 seconds and 30 seconds option, and
I tried other games and it says the same thing, tried reformatting my thumb drive and selected as capture location again, but the option is still gone, try changing the resolution output down to 1080p and back up to 4k, and check if the TV was getting 4K input
and it is, i have tested with 2 other drives Usb 3.1 and 3.0 and the 1-hour 4K option still doesn't appear, tried the USB ports on the back as well same problem

did a full factory reset, and it's doing the same thing

problem solved

they have simply move the option, so it's not convenient anymore

Glad I found this so I can stop bump head into wall, I have tried everything it does not work anymore.

It appears that when they changed recording features recently they didn't run sufficient "regression testing" on existing features and here we go now. It appears feature is now broken with latest firmware including "improvements" for capture features.

Been using it a lot and hope it will be fixed soon. Hope they also update testcases on this. Testing this should be part of acceptance testing before firmware is released to production environment.

Are you trying just from recording a normal game clip and letting it run for an hour? I have noticed that the times have been reduced as well, so I figured that this must have come from a recent update. It used to let you have the option to record the
last 5 minutes of gameplay as well, but now, the longest option I have is to record the last 2 minutes of gameplay. It seems that they may have reduced the times down across the board.

I found this thread: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...appeared/dfd63dce-b459-45c0-bfb0-f2addd6f962f

It appears it's either broken or unsupported.
