Don't hesitate to join our Discord & reach out in our support channels for assistance on any issues you may be encountering :D

I am unable to record or save clips

If you're unable to record, it may be that:
- a.) The game is not supported by Insights Capture
- b.) Insights Capture has ran into an issue that's preventing the app from recording

Is my game supported?

You can check to see if a game is supported

  • Opening Insights Capture's settings

  • Clicking the "+" icon next to "Game Settings"

  • Searching for your game in the "My Games" page that appears (see below)

But my game is supported!

In the event your game is supported, then it's usually one of two cases:

  1. You've ran into a one-off error that's preventing your app from making new recordings. This can be quickly worked around with a restart of your app & game.
    ​

  2. We've introduced an issue in either the overlay, recording or game event systems that's preventing the app from recording.

In either case, we ask that you reach out on our Discord so we can take a deeper look at what's going on with what you're running into.


Insights Capture's Desktop Window isn't working correctly

In the past we've seen reports about:

  • Insights Capture randomly closing (usually after clicking a button)

  • Insights Capture showing a giant error where the Video Dashboard or Video Replay page should be

  • Insights Capture doing nothing when clicked

All of these are symptoms of a critical app error introduced by an edge-case issue we were unable to catch during testing.

For the most part, we've managed to squash a majority of these errors & added additional code to prevent them from completely bricking the app- but we still get an issue every few weeks like this :(

But annoyingly, we'll need some information from you in order to figure out what went wrong in your case, so we can get a fix released ;-;

If possible, we ask that you join our Discord & reach out in one of our support channels with a detailed overview on what you're encountering & any other information requested by our Discord Support Team.
