Xbox Clips FAQ

What are Xbox clips?

Xbox clips are short gameplay videos recorded on an Xbox One, Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S with the console's built-in capture feature (Game DVR). Clips can be anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes long, in 720p, 1080p or 4K, and they upload to the Xbox network so you can watch and share them away from the console.

What is XboxClips.co?

XboxClips.co is a free website for viewing Xbox clips and screenshots online. Type in any gamertag and you get that player's public game clips and screenshots in your browser, ready to watch, download or share. There is no account to create and nothing to install. XboxClips.co is a third-party site and is not affiliated with Microsoft or Xbox.

How do I find my Xbox clips?

If nothing shows up, check that your captures are being uploaded to the Xbox network and that your privacy settings let everyone see them.

How do I record an Xbox clip?

Press the Xbox button to open the guide, then press X to save the last 30 seconds of gameplay. On an Xbox Series X|S controller you can also hold the Share button to record a clip, or tap it once to take a screenshot.

How long can an Xbox clip be?

"Record what happened" saves anything from the last 15 seconds up to the last couple of minutes, depending on your capture resolution. "Start recording" captures up to 10 minutes to internal storage, or up to an hour if you capture to an external USB 3.0 drive. You can change clip length and resolution under Settings, Preferences, Capture & share.

How do I download Xbox clips to my computer?

Can I download someone else's Xbox clips?

Yes. Search for any gamertag to view, download and share that player's public Xbox clips and screenshots. Players who have set their captures to private on Xbox will not appear.

Why are my Xbox clips not showing up?

The most common reasons are that automatic uploads are turned off, or your privacy settings hide your captures. On your console go to Settings, Preferences, Capture & share and make sure captures are uploaded automatically. Then check Settings, Account, Privacy & online safety, Xbox privacy and allow everyone to see your captures. A new clip can take a few minutes to upload before it appears here.

How long do Xbox clips stay online?

Microsoft removes captures from the Xbox network after a limited time (currently about 90 days), so clips will eventually disappear from your console's cloud captures and from this site. Download the Xbox clips you care about and keep a copy on your computer, phone or an external drive.

How do I upload Xbox clips to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or Twitch?

Download the clip from XboxClips.co first. Then upload the MP4 file the normal way: on YouTube use Create, Upload video; on TikTok and Instagram choose the saved video from your camera roll; on Twitch upload it from the Video Producer in your Creator Dashboard.

How do I record Xbox clips in 1080p or 4K?
