During a Tokyo Game Show demonstration, Xbox One head of product planning Albert Penello told Destructoid that gameplay footage will be shareable on social networks like YouTube and Facebook some time next year. Xbox One will automatically record five minutes of gameplay. DVR functionality will play back at a fixed 30 frames per second in 720p resolution, irrespective of the game's native settings.
Xbox One owners will require an Xbox Live Gold subscription if they want to make use of the console's game DVR functionality. PS4 will continually record 15 minutes of gameplay data in the background for users to capture and publish online.
Recorded PS4 data can be brought up using the DualShock 4's Share button, allowing players to edit and crop footage and share it across social networks via Ustream.
PS4 owners won't require a PlayStation Plus subscription to use the console's video capture features.
