I use Xbox Game Bar to capture clips from various sources (i.e. YouTube) to use in my videos. When I use it, the video file alone runs at its intended framerate (around stable 30fps), but when I put in into my editing software (MAGIX Movie Studio 2025 Platinum), there's a chance that large chunks of the clip past the first second or two dip down in frames and become too choppy for me to use the clip, forcing me to capture another copy of the clip from the same source. Is there a way for me to consistently make it so the clip runs at a smooth framerate in my editing software? It would make video editing much less of a hassle for me.

Is there actually any way to not just record your last 30 seconds but also last 10 minutes like you were able to with Windows 10?

[RealMattOfficial]

The quality is standard and 30 fps with game audio only, it reduces my 230fps into 18fps and many fps drop

Hi Tech, I am now on Windows 10 pro OS. Now when I record a movie from a website, I get nothing but a black screen on the recording.. I see the movie as it's being recorded, but when I go to review it, I have a black screen.. And it use to record great. But since I got Windows 10 Pro OS. It doesn't. I can record games and they turn out great, and music videos with it, but full length movies? No, and their in MP4 format. Can u help? I love the Xbox Game Bar...
