GTA clips on Xbox, ready for TikTok

Your Xbox already records clips. SLOT1 finds the MISSION PASSED, WASTED and BUSTED moments in them, cuts them vertical, and exports them for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. Nothing is installed on the console.

The short answer

Three ways to get your clips into SLOT1. Pick the one that fits your setup.

Xbox appNo extra hardware

Save a clip with the Share button, then download it in the Xbox app on your phone and upload it from there.

Capture card + OBSLive auto-clips

The Xbox plays through a capture card into a computer. OBS sends the picture to SLOT1, which clips while you play.

Xbox app on PC + OBSNo capture card

Play your console through the Xbox app on Windows and let OBS capture the window.

Clip GTA on Xbox with the Xbox app

  1. Save the momentHold the Share button on the controller to save what just happened. For a longer clip, press the Xbox button and choose Capture & share → Record what happened.
  2. Upload it to the Xbox networkClips only reach the Xbox app after they're uploaded. In Capture & share, open the clip and choose Upload if it isn't uploaded yet.
  3. Get it on your phoneIn the Xbox app on your phone, open Library → Captures and save the clip to your phone.
  4. Upload it to SLOT1Open slot1.fun (it works on a phone), sign in with Twitch, then go to Studio → Video sources → Upload and analyze.
  5. Cut it vertical and exportSLOT1 marks the moments it reads on screen. Open one in the editor, frame it 9:16, add a caption, and export it for TikTok, YouTube Shorts or Instagram Reels.

Higher capture resolutions allow shorter clips. 1080p gives you the most room.

Live auto-clips while you play

For SLOT1 to clip while you play, it needs its own copy of the video, so the picture goes through a computer running OBS.

Capture card + OBSBest quality

The capture card sits between the Xbox and your TV and feeds the picture into the computer.

Xbox app on PC + OBSNo extra hardware

Play your console through the Xbox app on Windows and let OBS capture its window. The picture is lower quality than with a capture card.

Then, in Studio → Stream setup, SLOT1 puts its server and stream key into OBS in one click, and it can pass the same stream on to Twitch, YouTube and Kick.

Questions

Does SLOT1 install anything on my Xbox?

No. SLOT1 is a website. Your Xbox records with its own Share button, and SLOT1 works with the clips.

My clip doesn't show up in the Xbox app. Why?

Clips only appear in the Xbox app after they're uploaded to the Xbox network. Open the clip in Capture & share on the console and choose Upload.

How long can an Xbox clip be?

It depends on your capture settings: higher resolutions allow shorter clips. 1080p gives you the most room. For long sessions, stream through OBS instead and let SLOT1 clip live.

Can SLOT1 clip my Xbox stream automatically?

Yes, when the video reaches SLOT1 through a capture card or the Xbox app on PC and OBS. A stream sent straight from the console to Twitch isn't visible to SLOT1, but its chat bot still makes Twitch clips with !slot1 clip.

Which video files can I upload?

MP4, MOV, M4V, MKV, WebM, TS, FLV and AVI: the files consoles, phones and recording apps make.

Is SLOT1 free?

Yes. Uploading, editing and exporting clips is free, with no watermark on your exports. Rewards for creators are planned but not live yet.
