When recording using xbox gamebar, the resolution is different.

Hi there FutureIsmo welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. I suggest uninstalling the app completely! Everytime that it tried to give me a hard time I do this and it works wonders! Here are the steps!

that is strange, i had the issue when the game was outputting the wrong res so gamebar just recorded the actual game resolution. if you using nvidia i would just use shadowplay instead, works better and slightly less overhead.

Hi,

Sorry but the video, as previously mentioned, will be lost now. The reason being is that the video container format Gamebar uses must finalise the file to complete the recording. This finalising process can only completed when the video recording is stopped in the app.

Should the computer crash or lockup for some reason and stop the recording, then the recorded file won't be finalised and is, unfortunately, lost.

I understand some third party recording applications such as OBS use different methods to record and may not be so susceptible to such issues.

I can open gamebar and record but i cant join a persons game when invited my gamebar freezes when i click join game or accept

Hi,

Kind of difficult one to diagnose. Your Windows GameBar recording (or other third party recording app) likely won't record this glitch as they just record that application, not the display.

Is this the only game your display does this?

Have you gone into your display settings or the video graphics driver settings and checked your display resolution and refresh rate are correct?
