Welcome back gamers to a brand new article, hope you all are doing well. So how many of you guys own a PS5? If you have one, you will know that PlayStation 5 records footage of about 15 seconds for each trophy, when it is unlocked. These video clips are helpful in a way that you can share these clips with your friends and rave about your achievement for any trophy which you have unlocked. The video proof of how you have managed to accomplish this feat is something worth showing. Unlocking trophies is not an easy job by any means, and these video clips really explain your hard work. You can also take screenshots of these trophies if you don’t want your PS5 to record a video.
Main Problem with storing Video Clips and Screenshots in PS5
Keeping all the good things aside, these video clips and screenshots have a negative effect. It is very difficult for any PS5 user to keep all the clips and screenshots of the trophies that he has accomplished. The main reason behind this is the availability of space in the PS5. Play Station 5 generally has an 825GB SSD, of which only 667GB is usable. Given the size of the majority of the games and how big they are, it is very difficult to keep more games if you are storing your video clips and screenshot as a 15-second clip takes up about 30 to 40 MB of space, which is a bit too much. While it looks quite good at first, as you play more, these clips start getting piled up, wasting more of your valuable space.
This is the reason why most players want to disable trophy clips and screenshots. So if you are having a problem with this, and don’t know what to do, then stay with us, and we will be explaining everything on how you can disable both video clips and screenshots on PS5.
How to turn off PS5 trophy video clips & screenshots

- Go to the home screen of the PS5.
