Would it be possible for Microsoft to add a "quality" control to Xbox captures?

txma. · Jun 11, 2023

I'm not sure if Microsoft listens to feedback/suggestions but I would enjoy an option that allows for you to increase the bit rate of your recordings on Xbox Series S/X if you are recording onto a USB. The current capture system results in grainy/blotchy footage even when recording at 1080p onto a USB, which is likely a result of a lowered bit rate in order to conserve file sizes, however file sizes are not an issue if you're recording onto a USB so I would enjoy a way to increase the bit rate for a sharper, less grainy image. This could also be paired with the option of changing your recording fps from 60 to 30 to reduce file sizes if you absolutely have to in order to increase the bit rate.

Hey Futuresnipes22

There a couple simple ways to accomplish this without the need of a USB. You can download your videos via the share button on your capture through the xbox app.

You could also purchase a capture card to go from your xbox device to your mac which would also keep a better quality than your xbox captures can deliver.

There is also a longer route you can take by using the xbox app on a mobile device, downloading the specific capture and sending it to yourself via email.

For quality you would want to use the capture card, however you would have to purchase the capture card.

It depends on your preference and the quality you are looking for.

Hope this helps!

As I Said "Therefor the controllers they manufacture are of lesser quality because the cheaper production cost and retail price.". The third party controller would of course be of worse quality than that of the official
controllers. If you could recall were the controller landed that might help me understand what could be wrong.But that could be a big possibility

If your that bothered by it why not just buy a capture card, it will give you full control over what quality the video is recoded at, how long and in what format.
