Already did that. It didn't solve the issue. This is definitely an issue specific to the update and the TV app. A number of people have reported a similar issue, and they're aware of it.
Asking for TNT kept sending me to CMT :/

Yep, I really like this. They made slight modifications to the behavior and appearance it seems. They changed the colors and I believe they also made sure that the system doesn't show any other options that are unnecessary when all you've asked is to have the sound muted.
Also, the TV's volume turns down slightly now whenever you say 'Xbox Go Home.' I like that.
Same! I've grown to hate CMT very much lol. ESPN takes me to CSPAN. CSPAN!!!
Have you tried telling the system to take you to CSPAN in the hopes that it takes you to ESPN? Or does it just troll you and stay on CSPAN

Change the region setting of your Xbox to the USA. They'll all turn on AND games will be cheaper in the store
Saw this on Reddit. 1,3,4 Are at the top of my list.
What the hell does passionated mean? Someone should have proof read. The list is good though.

HBO was especially bad for me, it sent me to ESPN and some local station both times I tried it.
I kept getting PBS and KDVR (local NBC station). It was really dumb. I do like how fast the listening thing goes away though.

Yeah this is pretty much what I want too.

Is this an official Xbox announcement, or a wish list?
Wish list.
I don't think they're asking for new bonuses, just that you also get them when buying digitally. Of course would it be best if they'd go away all together, but I don't think that will happen anytime soon.

I just got a second update. Updating now.
"New Stuff
◾Update to address issues some users noticed where Party Chat would be quiet unless the Party App is snapped
◾Get System Update button change. This update changes how the system update button works under Settings->System. Now the button will say “No update available” and be greyed out when there is no update and will say “Update console” and be active when an update is available."

Yea, getting that now as we speak also.

I think if I tell it to go to CSPAN, it will actually go there.
edit: Update fixed tv issues. Used voice commands to go to Espn, hbo, TNT, MSNBC.

Is Xbox play disc an actual command? I cant remember, you'd be better off just saying the games name though

Yeah i was always under the impression you had to say the FULL title of the game. I could be wrong though.

I would have preferred a "Check for Update" button but this will work.

On the Home screen, it is a command.

So I'm pretty sure something in this update stopped audio from the TV app working.

Still no new headset adapter updates. Really hoping they don't think it's "good enough" now since they got rid of the static.

I have the most recent update that broke my Forza so I had to re-download and it worked fine. But, I don't do want to ask those that have the most recent update and you have Killer Instinct or Forza. Do the games look different to you? I swear and my wife said the same thing when I was playing Killer Instinct that the game looked cleaner. I don't know what it is or maybe I am seeing things, but to me there is a noticeable difference in how these 2 games look to me. I have a bunch of other games I am going to test.
Anyone else that has the most recent update that rolled out yesterday care to weigh in on this before I go crazy? Only thing keeping me in check is that my Wife also noticed it.

I invited you now you just have to wait to see if they send you a message.
It's also now instant. I used to say "Xbox volume down " and then the command would pop 10 seconds later and then linger around waiting for you to say "stop listening". Now when you say it the notification pops instantly and disappears just as fast. Keep these awesome updates coming MS!

Done
I don't have an answer for you, as I have yet to actually play a game on my XB1, but is it possible that Microsoft has made further changes to how the scaling works, or has possibly "fixed" how full range RGB is rendered?
Last I checked, I still can't adjust the blacks so that "eye" that they talk about becomes visible. Perhaps it's just the calibration utility that is broken? Is the XB1 able to correctly output a full-range signal, including the so-called "blacker than blacks"?
Also, while I'm veering hopelessly off topic, has anyone heard any recent news about an extra long Kinect cable becoming available? (Monoprice claimed to be working on one.)
Cool! Thanks man

I'm not seeing a difference, and I just played Forza.

A newer update, not much . It looks like they might be saving the bigger stuff for E3, I hope anyway.
"New Stuff
Were at a stage in previewing this update where new updates will primarily contain fixes and improvements. The following changes are contained within this build:
◾Ongoing fixes and adjustments to the user interface.
◾An update to fix an issue some users reported where content requiring a title update would need to be uninstalled and reinstalled after a System Update.
◾An update to help resolve issues with playing disc-based games.
◾Updates to resolve an issue where Party Chat would not work via headsets, only via surround sound speakers."

who thought that this was an appropriate way to present a wish list?
Who's going to bother reading through 2 faux post-it notes? some people should put down photoshop and go outside.
(solid list though)

The bolded was an issue with me. Sometimes if I joined a party I could only hear the person through my TV, not through my headset. The fix was to power off the controller then power it back on. I'm curious t osee if this update fixed the need to do that.
I had to do that yesterday when we played Forza with gaffers.
I unregistered my console from the preview updates. Too buggy for me and not worth it for the new features.
