| Steam on Fedora Linux: "Unable to retrieve clip information" | 2025-01-01 | false |

How to fix the annoying "Unable to retrieve clip information (2)" error message in Steam. |
I recently wanted to use the new Steam Game Recording feature, but I kept running into a really annoying bug - I couldn't save anything! Trying to save it to Steam's own media manager wouldn't do anything and not even give an error. When trying to export it to a file, it would say "Unable to retrieve clip information (2)".
Fortunately, this is super simple to fix - it means Steam is unable to actually encode the video files. On Fedora Linux, going through RPMFusion's guide to installing codecs managed to fix the Game Recording feature for me.
