Questions About Live TV on Xbox One?

Re: Questions About Live TV on Xbox One?

It is blasting out a pause command regardless of the state of the device (playing DVR content, live TV). Not sure about compatibility of that particular unit though. For example I'll bark out 'xbox play' to get the UI on my Genie to come up again even though the content is already playing.

Correct. XBOX one audio settings is where i change it. I figured it had to do with XBOX one not getting a signal from the Directv box.

Can you try changing your settings on Xbox One from "HDMI (Auto-Detect)" to "HDMI" under Settings->Display & Sound->TV Connection?

Question about the play/pause when on TV.

I have a Motorola Cox DVR box...doesn't seem like pause or any of those does anything...is that supposed to only pause live tv, or pause if I'm playing something back?

What mestevo said. Does your Cox box support pause? We're just sending the pause command. What happens when you press pause on your remote?

I have the same issue I can't figure it out for the life of me.

It's a Cisco box, the old one was Motorola. I'll tinker, pause on remote usually pauses live tv or whatever you're watching on DVR, but doesn't do anything when I try it on xbox. Now that I know I'll try again.

So this is happening in all apps/games, not just Live TV?

Re: Questions About Live TV on Xbox One?

I'm having audio issues on my 5.1 surround. Live TV I'm only getting sound from right front. I have Sony hdmi receiver and Samsung cable box with Cablevision. In games I'm not getting sound from Center speaker. On xb1 have audio set at hdmi 5.1

I have my 360 running through same system and audio 5.1 works fine.

So this is for all instances, not just when watching TV?

Hmmm, doesn't seem to do anything with pause, though the remote pauses tv/dvr when appropriate. Is there anything I could do to try and reload that or no? Not a biggie, just wondering....

Sorry. Looks like it was am issue with an HDMI splitter. Getting output from all speakers now, except center is extremely low volume, but I suppose I can adjust that with my receiver.

right, during games it's really noticeable during commentary in nba2k14 - and foodnetwork when people are talking. apps I can't be sure.

it's not every 10 seconds or anything, more like every 2-5 mintues I get a brief blurry dip.

It's not enough of a problem for me to go nuts trying to fix it, i did do a hard reboot if that helps. In the end it's not a big deal but obviously I'd rather have perfect audio.

Thanks for answering all these questions/suggestions btw - it's been really informative and handy.

I'm not sure I completely understand. Sometimes pause works using your remote, sometimes it doesn't?

Weird. I've had issues with my Samsung TV before where it decided to do automatic volume leveling...and it was annoying. Do you have something like that you could disable?

Pause always works on remote...those pause and other Xbox features don't work ever with voice or controller. Must not be mapped to my cable box correctly I guess?

Gotcha, so channel change, etc also don't work?

Sorry if you told me already, what's the make, model, and provider of your cable box?

Does Kinect have line of sight to your cable box?

I'll get the exact info when I'm home. Cable box is below Kinect in entertainment center, but Kinect can turn it on/off and change channel so I think it can see it fine.

Changing channel works, so I can say "Xbox Watch Fox" and it'll type in the numbers to change to the Fox HD channel.

I've just been wondering about the pause aspect, that seems to be off.
