I find it hilarious that you need to update the firmware of your controllers via plugging them in with a USB cable.
Only Microsoft would make a simple thing like controllers so complicated.

New to firmware updates? You should make sure it has power during the process.

anyone feel any difference in the controller? suppose to be less twitchy?
Yeah, pretty sweet. And it can be turned off easily if you don't want to use it.
Yep. Very easy to toggle.
Been just farting with it and they have a decent number of videos. Most of my playlists had maybe 50% of the songs with videos.
Target screwed up according to Reddit

does any one know what the new update was for, i think the file size was 352
Mostly likely its the final version of the Preview that brings it up to the full version of the update.

I just installed the preview update, and was happy to see that Dolby Digital is now an option via the audio settings. However, I am still only getting stereo output from my DirecTV receiver. My system is setup as follows:
DirecTV receiver -->HDMI--> Xbox One-->HDMI-->TV
Xbox One-->Optical-->AV Receiver
I've experimented with the Beta surround sound options, but no matter what I do, HDMI audio is always downsampled to stereo when sent back out via Optical.
Will this ever be a supported scenario?

Like every major smartphone does this too... I can't update my iOS without having it plugged in first, lol.
It sure is. They also offer their API for developers to play around with.

Anyone else having issues with Kinect?
The "Xbox on" command works maybe once out of ten times for me. The automatic sign in barely works either and even when it does it sometimes recognizes my girlfriend as me. I've recalibrated the thing a thousand times and even reset it to factory defaults.
Am I missing something here?

That command is one of the most unreliable. Maybe it's because there's only so much it can do from low-power mode.

Check the OS version of your console:
Settings>System>Console info
It should be :
xb_rel_1403.14031-2200

I'm not aware of a manual way to push the update, it was already installed when I fired up my X1 this morning. Sorry man.
My controller now no longer recognises the stereo adapter nor the console bundled in chat headset. I updated it today, plugged in my headset and it worked fine. Plugged it out and back in and then it stopped working. I tried everything from rebooting, to emptying the console's cache, to taking out batteries, to trying to update the controller once again. Nothing worked. I had to go out and buy a brand new controller, which does work fine with the stereo adapter.
Anyone has any clue how to fix this? I mean the controller is totally functional, but it just doesn't seem to recognise anything plugged into it. :/

Contact Xbox Support on Twitter or email/call. That seems like a firmware issue with the controller so maybe they'll tell you how to reset it or send you a new one.
i kept it on instant on all day and didn't get it. is there a way to force it?
I had it on instant on and changed it back to power save and shut it down. Then put it back to instant on and went into stand by and it finally updated lol. Not sure why it needs to be this complicated.

This is how I got the 2 most recent updates. I keep mine on instant on all the time, so I just switch it to power save, turn it off, switch it back to instant on, turn it off again. I just wait 10 minutes or so and it starts downloading.
Not sure if that's how to push it but it's worked both times for me. Worth a try at least if someone hasn't gotten the update yet.
I came back from work today and the update was there. Can't complain about that.
Overall, the system does seem to react quicker (most important for me). They still have a lot to do, but MS has come a LONG way from launch. I am proud of them. Also, I wish we could make lists in our friends section instead of just favorites. Would love to have all GAF people organized in one area lol.

Groups and nicknaming would be good things to have for sure. They want our feedback so we should definitely let them know that this would be a good idea.
It's incredibly stupid. what was wrong with the 360 updated at certain time? a lot of things about this console seem backward.
People getting real mad about the update. It's not that big a deal is it? You won't even know it's happened. They can't give it to everyone all at the same time unfortunately, but you're not really missing out.
I got mine earlier today when my console was in standby mode. The new volume increment thing is great, I've set it at 8 now so I never need to repeat the Xbox volume command.

Try to completely shut down the console, and then restart it.
Yes, it's a big deal.
I get home tired at night and can't even play a game of Garden Warfare with friends. It's ridiculous.
And yes, they CAN give it to everyone at the same time.
