  1. Windows Game Bar Clip Quality worsened


    Hi all,

    I enjoy gaming in my spare time and saving funny moments I have with mates using the game bar's shortcut to save the last 30 seconds.

    I've been doing it for years and usually compile a somewhat funny/nostalgic vid for my friends to watch every few months and we all look back on them together - spanning back over 6 years now Windows Game Bar Clip Quality worsened :)

    However, I've noted a drastic drastic worsening in quality over the years.

    Firstly, the clips from 2018-2020 used to be saved at 75fps. This has dropped to 60fps, which is very noticeable, and to those who say otherwise, you are wrong.

    Is there any reason for this? I can't seem to find any setting to revert this

    Secondly, the actual video quality has got blurrier. Text is not as clear. Clips used to be relatively high definition, in fact, they probably were. Now, it's much worse.

    The change happened around the time I switched from my 1080 monitor to a 2K.

    Is this linked? Is there a work around this?

    Does it have anything to do with me changing the folder the clips are saved to?

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    And yes, the obvious like switching video quality to "high" has already been highlighted for years.

    :)

    Xbox Game Bar - windows 10

    Hi there Mat,

    Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is an inquiry on the Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10. The game bar will only capture game clips and screenshots. For more information on the Xbox Game Bar, I recommend to check out the following
    article:
    Use Xbox Game Bar to capture game clips and screenshots on Windows 10
    .

    Hope this helps.

    Game Clip

    Hello SheLuvSxns,

    You can find your game clips and screenshots by opening Game Bar and selecting Widget Menu > Gallery. Try saving it to a USB or External HDD and try viewing it from another computer.

    If the same thing happens and you cannot see the clip, unfortunately there is no way to recover it that I am aware of.

    You can choose the frame rate and video quality of your game clips. Video quality controls both resolution and bitrate.

    Higher quality and frame rate generally requires the PC to work harder, which may decrease performance. You can determine the best settings for your system by trying them out.
