Screen Capture (xbcapture.exe)
The xbcapture tool captures a screenshot or video clip of what is currently being displayed on a console.
The screen capture includes anything that is currently displayed on the console output, including exclusive apps, shared apps, snapped apps, system UI such as Home or notification pop-ups, etc. The screen capture will be at the currently selected display resolution for the console.
The video clip will record an ERA at 720p with .h264 encoding, and will be recorded for the specified number of seconds in the past (or 90 seconds if no time value is specified). Shared and snapped apps, system UI such as Home or notification pop-ups and other similar non-ERA content will not be captured.
Note Screen capture temporarily suspends GameDVR. Any video clips recorded while a screen capture is being taken will have a black segment for the duration of the screen capture process.
Note that the Xbox One Manager tool can also be used to capture screenshots.
xbcapture filespec [/C [/T[:]time] ] [/O] [/X[:]address[+<accesskey>]]

| Option | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| filespec | Specifies the path and filename to use to store the capture. If no filespec is provided, the content will be saved to the current directory on the PC as xbox_screenshot.png or xbox_videoclip.mp4 depending on usage of /T. | ||
| /C [/T[:]time] | Record a video clip instead of capturing an image. This command will by default record for 90 seconds unless a number of seconds is passed with the /T flag. /T[:]time specifies a length of time to capture video over. The valid range is 6-300, and is expressed in seconds. | ||
| /O | Overwrite an existing file if it has the same name as the output file. | ||
| /X[:]address[+<accesskey>] | Specifies the host name or address (shown as Tools IP on the console) of a targeted console, but does not change the default console. For information about setting a host name for a console, see Setting a Hostname for the Console IP Address.If you do not use this option, the default console (previously set by Connect (xbconnect.exe)) is used.Accesskey is a string that you can use to restrict access to a console to only those people who know the access key. Set the access key by using the command xbconfig accesskey=your-key; then, restart your console to make the access key effective. To access a console that is configured with an access key, you must include a plus sign (+) and the access key after the IP address or host name of the console. For more information about access keys, see xbconfig accesskey.
