Introduction
If you want to record Xbox One gameplay, you have several options. You can either use the built-in Game DVR feature, or you can set up third-party software to do the job.
The Game DVR feature is pretty basic, but it’s easy to use and it’s built into the Xbox One interface. To record gameplay footage with Game DVR, just hit the Xbox button on your controller to bring up the guide, then go to the “Captures” tab. From there, you can start recording gameplay footage or take a screenshot of your current game.
If you want more control over your recordings, or if you want to be able to record footage from multiple Xbox One consoles at once, you’ll need to set up third-party software. There are a few different options available, but we recommend using Elgato’s Game Capture HD software. It’s easy to set up and it gives you a lot of options for controlling your recordings.
What is DVR?
DVR is a feature that allows you to record and save your favorite shows, movies, and sports events to watch at a later time. It’s like a TiVo or DVR box that you might use at home, but it’s built into your Xbox One console. You can record one show while watching another, or record two shows at the same time. You can also schedule recordings in advance so you never miss your favorite programs.
