bring on the SUNSET OVERDRIVE SHOOTTTSSSSSSS guys pls.

Seanspeed · Feb 21, 2015

So, just now that we've got uncompressed PNG's on the XB1, I think its worth recommending

FastStone Image Viewer

This free software gives you some pretty comprehensive tools for converting and resizing images even in very large batches. You can turn your PNG's into very high quality JPG's to save harddrive space and also to play a courteous role when posting on internet boards.

The image quality is essentially identical, so no worry about image degradation:

(stolen from a shot I saw here, sorry)

PNG 3.42MB

JPG 2.51MB

I challenge anyone to spot any difference. Really useful for converting large batches of screenshots to scrub down the filesizes and also for resizing images quickly and easily.

Now they need to add Facebook sharing, too.

R3TRODYCE · Feb 21, 2015

Well done

It's pretty impressive, I will try it.

Well, it works. Awesome!

Now to try something a bit... bigger.

EDIT: Seems like it takes a while for the 'Bone to process my screenshots. You can't upload them until the name of the game appears over your Gamertag in Upload.

Excellent to see it work.

Lettuce · Feb 21, 2015

Whats going on with these screen grabs they all look overly 'harsh'???

Sanpei · Feb 21, 2015

Do they process screens ? We need to see some titanfall screenshot to understand

VE3TRO · Feb 21, 2015

Brilliant. Mine aren't pushing into the activity feed though.

And while we are at it.

Networking fixes to address periodic issues with consoles detecting Strict and Moderate NATs coming out of Instant-On.

Blue Ninja · Feb 21, 2015

I've been waiting a long time to do this... That's about 8 shots stitched together.

Now I just need saving to USB or OneDrive.

Sorry bllah blah blah, try some other time.

So this is now a thread where we crap on Sony?

PS4 had screenshots and we crap on MS. MS has better screenshots and we crap on Sony. It's very simple, pointing things out is how things get attention.

Chobel said:
1080p and not compressed? That's fucking impressive MS.

I suspect it takes less processing work to take a screenshot that doesn't go through compression.

Made these in a hurry.

Steverulez · Feb 21, 2015

Just testing it to see if it works. Was I the only one whose image got sent to twitter as a link rather than an embedded image?

Skux · Feb 21, 2015

Awesome. Bring on the photo mode patches!

golem · Feb 21, 2015

I guess bugging Phil for PNGs worked! Awesome

RoyalLaFlame · Feb 21, 2015

Wow, Forza Horizon 2 looks absolutely gorgeous!

Amazing job MS!

First game I thought of when this feature came out. Luckily, I still had to play through the DLC campaign and grabbed a few shots from the boss fight. Will upload soon.

March. Maybe in the beginning of the month.

So...seven days left.

Super Rookie said:
So was the wait worth it Miles?

It absolutely is. Although I am disappointed the voice command isn't "Xbox, Screenshot". "Xbox, take a screenshot" just doesn't feel right.

Screw Titanfall how about some beautiful 720p DR3 screens

I think they do this to separate the voice command from normal talk that sometimes have the words "Xbox" and "screenshot" in a sentence.

Is that really the overall feeling you get from this thread?
You obviously missed 90% of messages not involving Sony. And most who do mention Sony, just want them to upgrade their screenshot function, justifiably so.

DeathGlobe · Feb 21, 2015

So can I some how join this beta program to get access to this now

I too would like that.

I mean, even when exporting to USB not only do we still get a compressed image but the file size is smaller than when uploading to Twitter from PS4! That's just... shit.

Leyasu · Feb 21, 2015

Ok what went wrong??

Caayn · Feb 21, 2015

Little comparison with an external capture card(HD60 + CCCP) vs the preview screenshot sharing.

Capture Card - 4.08MB said:

Screenshot sharing - 2.95MB said:

Um holy shit I'm impressed with what X1 can push this early. That's a 3rd party game at that.

Blue Ninja · Feb 21, 2015

You'll need to rehost your image somewhere. Right now you've posted IMG tags without an actual image in there, just a hotlink to the page where your screenshot is hosted.

This is just rehosted on imgur, so there's compression, but you get the idea.

Other than the smoke/steam in Titanfall ones, which you couldn't obviously freeze, they look identical to me. So I'd say no post-processing applied to the screenshots.

Forza 5 looks a lot better here than I remember it to. Bring on FM6.

No you don't. You can simply get the image URL from Xbox.com's page. I did so for my FH2 screen. No rehosting needed.

Jup, quality of the feature is really good. I can't complain that at all.

Although I do have a complaint about how screenshots look in the upload app. Here's how it looks ingame, and here's how that exact same spot looks in the upload app. But when I upload that picture and watch it on a PC the black crush is gone and the image is perfectly fine. Looks to me like the display values of the upload app are wrong. Microsoft really needs to fix this before they put this preview version online for everyone.

Ingame --> Upload app -- > Exported

I'll check my privacy settings for now.

Manually update your console in the settings menu. It will work then.

alexbull_uk · Feb 21, 2015

MS gets it. Uncompressed PNGs, hot damn!

Let me disable auto-upload (I take a lot of screenshots) and enable copying to USB/OneDrive and it's literally perfect.

Imgur compresses your screenshots. Try abload. There could be a language barrier, but it's not too hard to figure out.

Diablohead · Feb 21, 2015

I'm impressed by the quality, I thought twitter would scale it down somewhat.

haikira · Feb 21, 2015

This is god damn awesome, especially that they're uncompressed. I've been playing Sunset Overdrive, really wishing I could take screenshots.

Next time I'm on it, I'm going to take so many. =D

Kssio_Aug · Feb 21, 2015

Is not yet possible to send them to One Drive, or any other way to save it on PC without a Twitter?
