I thought I'd be clever and get the Xbox Game Bar (running in Win 10) capture to save the recording across the network to my editing location. It worked, beautifully! High fidelity sim captures using the NVenc chip on my 2800 GPU. Wonderful.
The problem arose when I renamed the network location.
Xbox Game Bar couldn't find the location. Understandable. So tried to change the location in both the Xbox Game Bar app and in Settings/Xbox Game Bar/Captures.
No dice. It doesn't save the address as a regular address, it saves it as a special Windows Explorer location in the registry. Attempts change the location from a now unavailable location cause Xbox Game Bar to crash. This is a known problem and there is no fix from MS ATM.
This little batch file fixes it.

I found that other popular products weren't compatible with my old iPhone. Using a plugin this braodcasts directly to OBS on my editing PC and works brilliantly!

WineD3D For Windows is a DirectX 1-11 to OpenGL wrapper based on WineD3D, which is an almost full implementation of DirectX used in Wine. Even if Windows supports DirectX natively, using WineD3D can enhance backwards compatiblity with older games, especially on Windows 8 and newer that don't support 16 bit screen modes. Another possible use is to emulate unsupported versions of DirectX, or porting DirectX applications to OpenGL without having to rewrite the rendering code. Please note that WineD3D is far from perfect, and many games will not work.
