Xbox Game Capture not recording my mic

When I record a game clip on the Xbox One X my voice is not recorded even though all my mic settings are set to on. I'm totally confounded as to why this is so, since my mic is working with other apps and game chat. Supposedly this feature is built into
the Xbox One X capture system.

Hello Michelle Ravenwood,

Thank you for sharing your concern here in Xbox Community Forum and we hope that all is well.

Based on the description, you are trying recording using the game bar with your discord voice. Let us see how we can help.

Windows Xbox Game Bar can capture recording your screen, any sound output and your mic. You can turn the mic off if you do not want to record what your mic picks up. This is how the Xbox Game Bar capturing works. You can also capture recording on the other app by changing the audio to record capturing setting. To check follow the steps below:

• Open Xbox Game Bar or Windows key + G
  
• go to Settings (gear icon)
  
• select capturing and under Audio to Record, tick All.
  

We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.



Sincerely,

Hi There,

Have you enabled recording of your mic during game captures? It is a setting that is usually disabled by default and you would be required to enable it from your Console capture settings.

I'm afraid you haven't helped.

As mentioned the capture cared records the game audio, it records party audio.

It is not recording public mic audio.

As the game audio and public mic audio come through the same channel, and the capture card is recording game sound perfectly, im led to believe its a privacy issue.

If I could get confirmation, or assistance, that would be great.

Your open ended, ridiculously obvious answer did nothing but fill a post on the forum.

Nice one, thanks for the help.

Anyone else offering useful assistance?

I am using Xbox with El Gato capture card and El Gato Chat Link pro with OBS. Xbox doesn’t allow game chat or “hot mics” to be recorded. I’m ready to break up with XBOX!
