Several users reported audio and visual slowness when recording game footage using the Xbox Game Bar on Windows 11/10 and the Screen Recording feature on Xbox consoles. While recording games, it is critical that the audio and video sync properly; otherwise, the recorded clips are useless. This post will show you how to repair Xbox game recording audio out-of-sync problems.

How to repair audio that is not in sync when recording an Xbox game

If you’re playing a game on your Windows PC, you may record it using a built-in software called Xbox Game Bar. The Xbox system also allows players to record their gaming, however there are time constraints. If your recorded video clips are not syncing correctly, no matter whatever technique you choose to record your gaming, the methods listed here will advise you on how to cure Xbox game recording audio out-of-sync difficulties.

Before we go into solutions, let’s look at several workarounds that might aid you. Several users were assisted by these workarounds.

• Change the resolution of your Game clip recording. For example, if you’re recording your game in 4K, switch to 1080 pixels before returning to 4K.
• For a few seconds, open another game and then close it. Now, launch your game and begin recording it.
• According to several customers, the issue happened in Windows 11 rather than Windows 10. That is why they reverted to Windows 10. We do not recommend reverting to Windows 10 from Windows 11. That is all up to you. You can try the solutions listed below.

Why are the audio and visuals on Xbox out of sync?

Audio and visual synchronisation problems are common in recorded video game footage on Xbox systems. This might be due to the use of a high frame rate or recording at a high quality. Modify your Xbox console’s gameplay recording settings and see if it helps.

Why aren’t my Xbox clips correctly recording?

Several games prohibit players from recording gameplay. Those games inhibit Xbox’s recording function. As a result, such games cannot be recorded. If the game supports recording but you are unable to capture gameplay, check to see if Capturing is enabled. To clear the faulty cache, restart your Xbox console. Additionally, erase any previous game footage to test if it works.
