    What happened to my game clips?


    I had 20 or so game clips listed under "On this Xbox". Now I have 3. Where did the others go? How do I get them back?

    Xbox support page on this subject says the following:

    • Captures you don't upload to Xbox Live will remain on the console they were recorded on.
    • Xbox One consoles hold up to 800 MB of screen shots and 8 GB of game clips. Once you reach those limits, the oldest captures will be removed when you save new captures (first in, first out).

    I didn't upload my captures to Xbox Live, so they should still be on the console.

    And as far as old captures being "removed when you save new captures", the newest capture was 18 days ago. After that, until yesterday, I had over 20 game clips, I haven't tried to record any new captures. So why did all but 3 of my game clips disappear?
    Where are they, and how do I get them back?

    Thanks!

    :)

    No sound on upload studio

    G'day Limpy! That's actually a separate issue than what's happening to the other folks in this thread. If it continues to happen, please start a new thread with some details of what's going on.

    Also, check out the dates on each of those clips and when they delete. Unsaved game clips are only available temporarily. Be sure to save them, or edit and upload the clips through Upload Studio.

    Recorded game clips

    Since this happens every time I record a game clip I doubt every game clip is corrupted. This happens when I record a clip then upload that clip to Xbox. Usually when I record a game clip I am online with friends. This problem gets really frustrating since
    it happens every time I view the clip after it finishes uploading resulting in me getting kicked from my online session. As far as I can tell this is not supposed to happen. This has been happening as long as I can remember. I've had issues before that have
    recommended I power cycle but this issue has remained.

    Game Capture Issues

    I find that any intensive game this happens. I have several games that do this and the clips seem to have no sound and are only like 4 to 5 second clips. I keep my standard clips to a minute. I have had it happen even in minecraft when there is a lot on
    the screen. Games that are poorly optimized it just seems to happen more.

    What happened to Five minutes?

    The help menu on Xbox One states:

    To record what's about to happen:

    1. Load your game, then launch Game DVR.
    2. Select Start new clip. The Game DVR app records for up to 5 minutes, then adds the clip to
      My clips in the Upload app.


    To record what just happened:

    1. Load your game, and play as usual. When something cool happens and you want to record it, launch the Game DVR app. The easiest way to do this is by saying, "Xbox, snap Game DVR."
    2. Select End clip now and choose how far back you want Game DVR to grab. You can grab up to the last 5 minutes.


    Sounds to me like simply saying "Xbox, record that." only records the last 30~ seconds of what previously happened, whereas what you needed to do was the second option that I listed.
