Re: Xbox One

When any of that kind of thing happens try restarting hardware one at a time, sounds like just hdmi handshake issues. We have a bad hdmi/NIC card in my Denon and have to do stuff like that all the time with our setup - predating getting an Xbox One.

Re: Xbox One

Turned on my Xbox one last night and no video for watching Live TV. Thought maybe it was a loose cable but no dice. So I tried 3 different HDMI cables and reset the TV settings to set it up again but just get audio, no video.

The crazy thing is that if I select SKIP the "do you see your TV picture?" Then the video comes through but next time I start up the XBox One it wants me to setup the TV again.

I've worked on it for a good bit testing HDMI cables in and out and switch edit from HDMI auto to just plain HDMI to no avail.

Any ideas? The HDMI in port looks fine..

P.S. My tv box is the newest DirecTV genie DVR and it worked great since Christmas until last night...

Same problem here. What I found that worked for me was turning the Instant on feature off and it's been working flawlessly since.

Re: Xbox One

Sorry if this has been asked but has anyone used an HDMI splitter with success?

Limited.

I would have to unplug and plug in the cable...or restart the XBone to have it work.

If I switched anything on the reciever(off of XBone)......I had to redo the process again.

I don't know what brand I have(splitter).....it's a generic one I got off of NewEgg or MonoPrice....it is a powered splitter if that helps.

Re: Xbox One

Thanks for the reply Knight. I'll hold off on ordering one right now. Was just a thought.

Well I tried that but it didn't help. I also removed the checkmark about "enable quick gaming (beta) to no avail..

However, I connected the Wii U into the Xbox One and I got video just fine so it looks like it's something with my cable box, not the Xbox One.

So tomorrow I will reset it and mess around with the settings on my DirecTV box...

Halo news tomorrow night? Could be a hoax, but it doesn't look like one. Weird time for an announcement, though.

It's a technically unsupported scenario. Some users have no success, some have limited success, and others actually get a better experience using a splitter. I'd check out the official Xbox forums or places like avsforums to see what they suggest if you really want to follow this route. However, it's not officially recommended because of the variety in splitters and that many of them aren't really HDMI compliant.

A few questions, because I don't fully understand. Is this what's happening?
1) Every time you launch TV, you are being asked to re-do your settings?
2) No TV appears in the setup PiP, but it does appear when you get to full screen?
3) You never have any HDMI issues in full screen?
4) What's the exact model # of your DirecTV genie? Is it the mini (extender) or the main Genie?

Well, the website isn't hosted by Microsoft, that would seem suspect. It's also not registered as per Microsoft's usual route.

Given that it's been up for a few hours now, wouldn't it have been taken down? It has MS's property all over the screen.

Re: Xbox One

Not necessarily, look how long thesurvivor2299 was up and it had logos property of Bethesda all over it.

As far as I can see, nothing the site uses isn't free to use (XBone logo, nondescript helmet icon that we all know is supposed to be but isn't actually an infringed trademark), so MS doesn't really have a case to demand removal, and who knows what the host would do with such a demand as a lot of hosts aren't keen on shutting down paying customers at some flimsy whim.

Re: Xbox One

I'm seriously considering trading in my PS4 for an Xbox One.

I like the PS4, but my gaming has really slowed down over the past few years.

Microsoft really pushed me away with their restrictions early on. To the point where the One wasn't even on my radar come release time.

Now I'm really seeing what the One can do and I feel like I'll get more bang for my buck with the One.

I'm a fan of baseball. Not a diehard like I used to be though (thanks Orioles). The Show is an awesome game, but I end up getting frustrated with it and trade it in halfway through the season. I don't really have the time to master it.

I'm not going to rush into a decision. I've done that in the past with different things and ended up regretting it.

It's just something that I've been considering he past few days. I'll more than likely stick with the PS4 and pick up a One down the road.

1. Correct
2. Correct
3. Correct
4. Hr34-700, the main genie....the minis I have are two C31-700 and I haven't tried either of those yet

I suspect it may be a cable box issue as I noticed my Closed Captioning quit working. I also hooked up the Wii U to the Xbox One and that does get video and audio in the setup process...

Thanks. #1 is what concerns mean the most. That should not be happening, once you go through setup, you should never go through it again unless you go into TV settings. Do any other apps show this behavior? Are there other settings that don't seem to persist between reboots?
