WHY ARE MY LOCAL CAPTURED VIDEOS JUST GONE ??? Whyyyy!????

Umm why are all my locally saved captured gone? I don’t usually upload them in the first place so why I did this happen?

Hi, I'm Miguel, community expert, I may not be an employee of Xbox, but I see you need some help, I'm Happy to help you.

I am reading about this type of situation, in many forums I see that they comment that the xbox itself deletes the captures that you have and have not seen in several days, it usually deletes them, and the recommendation is that you make a backup of those videos if you want to keep them permanently .

This way you can see if they are still available and still make a backup:

Press the Xbox button to open the guide, then go to Broadcast & capture.

Select Recent captures > See All.

Select the list view button on the right to display your captures in a list.

Select the check box next to the captures you want to upload.

Select the Upload to OneDrive button to begin uploading.

I have a simular issue. I accidentally deleted my "Captures" folder. And now all my captures are being saved to '\AppData\Local\Temp'

I want I created a new Captures folder in my videos, however all my screenshots and video captures are still being saved in 'Temp'

And my XBX has no issues with my Grundig TV, I guess, because that isn't HDR capable. And when using my video capture card at my iMac, I just need to disable HDR and the audio issue is gone.

So, the main source of the problem seems to be HDR related.

best bet is a separate capture card installed in a PC so that the stream can be saved to local storage

The best capture cards are about $400 for professional 4K quality captures

then the PC can be used to edit the raw video stream and trim it etc
