May 22, 2024 - Xbox Update Preview - Alpha Skip-Ahead (2408.240520-2000)

Hi BadWolfXT

Are you in the Xbox Insider program? If you are then something similar to this is on the list of known issues.

Is your console enrolled in the Xbox Insider Preview Program?

In May they have issued a fix for video corruption on Netflix and YouTube for Alpha Skip Ahead
insiders. This should find it's way in the next update coming in June, if there are no new issues with that fix.

Are you on the Xbox Insider previews? If so, they are changing it for something else. Can't recall offhand but it's in the release notes from a couple weeks back.

Hi

This was something that happened to console in the Alpha Skip ahead tier of the Xbox Insider and was required to fix an operating system fault.

Seems a long time to wait. From Beta to Omega, and then GA, just to get a OSU1 file thats older than Beta preview the console is on. A Factory reset is quicker than waiting for a file that may not solve a potential hardware issue.

"on my sons console that is not in the beta but has just updated to the may dashboard,".

As far as I'm aware the new dashboard is only available to Alpha and Alpha Skip Ahead previews.

Edit (22-5-2023) A subset of BETA Insider previews have the new Dashboard

"so just like the previous times, once the osu file is higher than what the console is asking for it will update with no issues."

I would investigate your network access if you need to use a OFFLINE System update file (OSU1) all the time. A stable network is required for all the preview updates that Alpha and Skip Ahead receive each week.

Depending on preview, a Insider console is updated several times over the course of preview.

ASA preview is especially demanding of updates, and if one or two are missed, well, lets just say its not convenient.
