Question regarding Windows 10's Xbox App and Game-DVR

Been playing around with the Xbox App for Windows 10 for awhile. I am intrigued by the Game-DVR feature but so far you can only upload clips that are on the App store and have native support. For example "Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition Beta" and "Microsoft Solitaire Collection" works, as well as record Xbox One games being streamed over.

 

What I want to do is record non-native games and upload the clips, specifically games that Were Microsoft published (via Games for Windows Marketplace for example), like "Halo 2 for Windows Vista". It's no surprise Microsoft does not care by their old PC releases whatsoever. I don't expect native support will come for these titles, but I wonder if there's away to bypass the error message that appears when trying to upload a clip from a non-app store titles. This blockage is definitely here to prevent people to upload explicit content that is not related to the games.

 

I try to explain this as well as I can, to try and make a parable: The way you can upload custom images to the Steam Community via just putting the image in a particular map, the same thing but clips via Windows Xbox Apps Game-DVR function.

 

Any ideas?
