Xbox One June Preview Update - My Real Name is External Storage

Not voice commands as far as I can tell, but instead of just sending a power toggle , it sends the correct on or off signal.

So you can't turn your TV off if it is on when your Xbox turns on or vice versa

YES! It was so annoying that I had to turn my tv back on.

The bigger news is the possibility of allowing playback of media files in a future update.

Please, take it into full consideration.

How does one get access to the beta? I was in the 360 ones but never saw a sign up process for the XB1.

I don't mind waiting, just curious as to how you sign up.

I don't get the pre-order thing for the Xbox One store. It's digital, the game won't run out. I can get it the day it comes out in the comfort of my living room.

Not when you want to download 50 GB Wolfenstein with 500 kbit/s DSL on release date. Pre-loading is such a nice feature!

West Coast reporting in and nothing here yet as well. I have 2 Xbox One's and did a power cycle on both hoping to trigger it, but nothing yet. I usually get in on most beta's the day they roll out, so hopefully later tonight.

Not sure if it's been mentioned or not, but there's also another controller update that comes along with this. So connect your controllers and have at it.

I don't think power cycling is the best day.

I was recording a video of my machine last week and I kept putting it in and out of standby, this actually forced it to download the update. I've done this twice now.

You know it's working because the light on the machine continues to flash even though you've shut it down

It's never been like that for me and my partners account.

Did you sign into your Netflix account whilst logged in as her? The log in details are basically a save file for each user
 
Ach bugger.
Just clocked someone playing Worms Bategrounds, thought oh I will pin that.
They have removed the option!!
Nooooooooo.

Edit- false alarm.

That will happen with the June update rollout to everyone according to the info they gave yesterday

Awesome. How did you find this out?

I'm hoping they continue to improve the stability of the audio through the controller. It's pretty good, but I still get occasional drop outs of sound here and there.
