Support NeoGAF

[Sanpei]

What about subtitles ? Can i use subtitles for mkvs, avis etc ?

 

[Chitown B]

either way, Plex isn't MS and that still lets MS stay out of the piracy business.

I stand fucking corrected.

 

[Chitown B]

Really is. I wish it would also stream games.

that makes sense with the PSVita because it's self-contained and has buttons. With a tablet, you'll also need a controller, and to be close enough for the controller to get a connection with the system. So, in the same room. In which case, why wouldn't you just play on the TV?

Awesome, looking forward to the coming updates keep'em coming. Thanks

 

[operon]

Looking forward to using this new update, I started using onedrive for watching my stuff since you mentioned it Albert but this will be brillant

 

[gossi]

The updates to Xbox OS and user experience continue to be the best element of Xbox One. Impressive stuff.

am I right in thinking the streaming TV will be limited to the USB TV tuner? Surely streaming anything hooked up to your HDMI would be too fuzzy legally? And most DVRs have HDCP enabled I think? (certainly my Tivo does). I would love to be wrong though - if I could watch Tivo recorded shows on my tablet I would buy five Xbox ones

Tivo streams directly to your tablets if you have the Roamio or Stream. It's fine.

I want to see this snap center in action. Sounds interesting.

I don't think there would be any legal issues. Especially since it's limited to your in home network.

In the UK - we only have the series 3(?) rebranded as virginmedia. We can stream live TV channels via the app, but that is streaming directly, not via the Tivo.

 

[Wizman23]

So I saw on Albert's Twitter pre loading was announced. Glorious, glorious day for us XB1 owners

I don't know about the laws there. Here, you can stream from the Tivo directly.

^ this is streaming from one box to another. It's the same thing.

 

[El_Chino]

Guys?! How come I can't ever join my friends party. I get that "network limitations" message.

This is still a thing? I had that problem during Destiny beta, but never had that once after.

 

[The Jackdog]

Won't ever happen officially. We can only get it via an app like VLC.

A guy on my friends list is one of the higher ups in Microsoft retail and he was at Sony for the launch of PlayStation 3 as well. He told me the reason we will never see MKV support on either console is simply cost. It apparently costs a loooooooooooooot of money to get all these codecs supported on the consoles apparently.

I asked "So why can't Sony? They already have MKV support on their TVs and Bluray players". He said you pay per device. So Sony would have to pay again on PS4.

So although we know Microsoft would sell a LOT of units on the back of MKV support, I guess they don't think it would be enough to justify the cost of adding the support.

Ouch

 

[John Caboose]

Keep the updates coming, so much good stuff added since launch.

 

[El_Chino]

Turns out all of a sudden I have a strict NAT, anyway to fix this?

Reboot everything. Set up port forwarding.

 

[myharlequin]

streaming the TV to tablets is awesome :O

Quick, Someone make a post like that reguarding how we will never get screenshot support because of costs

This is amazing news Albert, I'm super-hyped for MKV support, I had pretty much given up hope after it was 'forgotten' last gen. Keep up the great work

 

[Ducayne]

Sorry to ask this here, but just joined XboneGAF and would love to get into the preview updates.

Can someone add me on Live and invite me to this? Gamertag: Ducayne

 

[Dega]

Oh man i want that Stream TV to SmartGlass. Even if I have to buy a tuner. D: lol

 

[El_Chino]

Reboot everything. Set up port forwarding.

How do I do that?

 

[muzzymate]

Agreed! That's some pretty cool stuff, especially if it supports or can be tricked into doing over the internet streaming of TV.

 

[LyleLanley]

At that point I imagine you'd be better off getting a slingbox.

 

[MalpercioGoC]

Sorry if this is the wrong place - if possible, I'd love an invite to the preview program, if anyone has an invite to spare!

You can add me on Live @ MalpercioGoC.

Thanks a ton!!

Things like messages being snapped while your game continues to run even though you can't control it seems like an odd feature to me. If they could somehow let you use voice dictation to respond to messages all while continuing to control your game I could see it being really useful but as it sounds now this just seems like a great way to die in game while you type out a message.

you don't just snap during games, you can snap during a bunch of passive applications too. Video or music come to mind. Also, you can pause the game if you wan to

e: oh, are you saying that it should automatically pause the game?

It's up to us to ask so they can add stuff like this soon. Because once they do it's going to be amazing ^^

Streaming to Smartglass isn't getting enough attention imo. Pretty darn good news!

The Media player preview is out in the wild, but you need the next version of the preview dash for it to work

have you tried this,

I've tried that constantly and nothing changed. Am I doing something wrong? It keeps me "your network is behind a port-symmetric nat"

Yeah, it makes perfect sense if you're watching TV/Videos/ or listening to music but snapping a messaging app and taking control away from the game seems kind of pointless. What's the point of having the game still up? Auto-pausing would be the obvious change but in general snapping messages seems like a complicated solution to a problem that isn't even there.

Multiplayer doesn't have a pause button.

Grinding out quests doesn't need your full attention.

Half of a text conversation is reading.

Help! This is annoying.

I agree. It's a really neat feature. Especially because you can stream tv content to your tablet, while you're playing a game on the console.

 

[Straxus]

PM me your gamertag, I'll get you in.

Anyone else who wants in, do the same

Thank you, again, Moa!

 

[Illusive_Juan]

Is the preview tied to your console or Gamertag? I'm going to need to send my Xbox in for repairs soon and will end up getting a swap. Would I have to be reinvited into the program? Can I look back at the first message I got and redownload the dashboard app or something?

As your gamer tag is in the preview, you can simply enroll your new console in it.

 

[Alx]

Can't help you, but you should try contacting MS online support. They've always been quite helpful in my experience (it wasn't for Xbox, but it shouldn't be different...)

have you guys been having any issues with chat headsets? the chat/game volume won't separate with the volume controls. every time i try to decrease the game volume to hear the chat it also decreases the chat volume, so it's useless. you guys experiencing the same thing? using the first party xbox one stereo headset.

I have the same problem with my old 360 Tritton headset that I use with my X1. Always thought it was because it wasn't compatible or something.
