I have a new Lenovo Y70 PC and I was trying to use it to record some gameplay of Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut. I set the limit to an hour and the entire time, I saw the timer in red in the upper right corner of my screen so I knew it was recording and I knew how much time I had left.
But when I stopped recording after about 55 minutes, and went to my Captures folder to retrieve the video, it was only 3 minutes long. It's as if the game bar stopped capturing on its own and truncated the video, even though the timer was clearly running for the whole 55 minutes.
I tried the same thing again, and the second time, I only got 15 seconds of video.
What is going on here? I have tried searching around and could not find anything that describes the same problems. Does the game bar time out if it thinks it's not recording a game or something?

Welcome, and thanks for trying to help on this question. Super User is a knowledge base, so answers are intended to be a little more substantive than just a list of products. At a minimum, you should include links to the products and a brief description of the product and why it is a good solution. Even better is to describe how to solve the question using the product. Good guidance on how to recommend software here: http://meta.superuser.com/questions/5329/how-do-i-recommend-software-in-my-answers. Just a heads up, your answer might attract downvotes as "low quality".
