You're probably aware of the ability to share Xbox captures via OneDrive, but there's a good chance you don't take advantage all that often. That may change soon, as the feature is getting some much-needed improvements.
Some Xbox Insiders are now testing the ability to not only transfer a large batch of captures over to OneDrive, but also activate automatic uploads to the service every time they choose to share a clip or screenshot over the internet.
You can see a look at this in action courtesy of The Verge's Tom Warren below (and above!):
And here's how Microsoft and the team at Xbox describes the feature:
"You can now choose to have your game clips and screenshots automatically upload to your OneDrive Cloud Storage! You can enable this in Settings > Preferences > Capture & share, under the Automatic uploads section.
Alongside the option to automatically upload new captures, we’ve created a wizard to help you back up your existing Xbox Network clips to OneDrive or an external drive. You can find this in the Captures app."
We're expecting this to go live for everyone in the near future, so you'll soon be able to make OneDrive your default solution for uploading captures. Of course, the old way of uploading to the Xbox Network will still be an option too!
Will you be making use of this feature? Tell us down in the comments section below.

@Kaloudz yeh does for me , I didn't have much space left on onedrive even before I uploaded my clips to it , and I refuse to pay monthly for a storage upgrade
@Kaloudz I've got 30 gb ,now 25.7 gb used ,one day I might clean it up and get rid of what I don't want anymore ......I said might before anyone sees that as a I will lol
@Kaloudz u can set it to only save locally on PC , I don't bother putting anything on onecloud apart from my pics that get auto uploaded from my phone...and my friends kids have all had a go at taking pics of whatever, in fact I'll get them to clear my ondrive off lol
I have an interesting problem :
I use an IFTTT applet to automatically transfer videos uploaded to my onedrive account to my telegram account so that i can share it easily in the group with my friends.
But IFTTT has a limit of 20mb per file for that action, and 720p 15 second clips are usually above 20mb so i have to trim them.
I need 10 or 12 seconds capture option to solve my problem, why not?
