  • Single Press - Saves a screenshot and the last 15 minutes of gameplay (or since the last time you pressed Share; or since the last blocked scene).

  • Double Press - Starts recording from that moment until you press the Share button again. Do not double tap the Share button to stop.

  • Long Press - Saves a screenshot from that moment.

:ohhh: I didn't know about this double press stuff.

You should tweet this to Shu, he's pretty good with feedback.

Regardless, it's nice to have this documented.

He's also said it's working fine... Which it obviously isn't.

[–]newtoday

he has tweeted multiple times that he'll look into it.

:banderas: Shu is awesome.

After I hit the share button, I go inside of the Upload folder to check and see if it has the date/time right. I've had problems when I just hit the share button and then go right back to the game.
Try this for the share issues you're having

Happened to make that mistake of pressing twice or leaving fast as hell can't remember, and that shyt duplicated the previous video, from 24 hours before :bryan:
That infamous time where I headshotted the shopper pilot with a sniper, I was so excited I pressed the button twice, cause that shyt is right next to the "middle button" and It's hard to press it sometimes :dead:

Another thing I've done recently on my console is deleted all the old videos/screenshots that were building up since I got the system. You can't do it from the Share screen though, you have to go to your profile to get to the files to delete them

I just read this
I’m tired of reading that the share feature doesn’t work when in fact there is nothing wrong with the Share feature, it’s most likely that you are using the feature wrong and don’t understand it fully.

First of all, there is only one genuine problem reported that the share feature currently has and it’s the fact that a few people have problems where the PS4 only records the first 15 minutes of your session and then stops until you restart game.

To fix that: hold PS4 power button for about 8 seconds until you get to safe mode and then click on rebuild database.

That being said, I will now explain how share feature works.

Clicking the share button; opens the share menu and will automatically take a screenshot AND save your last 15 minutes of footage.

Holding share button; takes a screenshot.

Double tap share button (this is important); this will DELETE your unsaved final 15 minutes of footage and create a new video file that will take your new upcoming footages of 15 minutes.

And finally I would like to mention that the developers have the ability to block gameplay footage from some parts of their games, go to share settings options and enable notification for start and end scenes where the PS4 will not record gameplay.
I didn't know that double tapping the share button deletes your last 15mins when starting a new 15 :ohhh:
