According to the Latest Alpha skip ahead Insider release notes this is still an issue the engineers are tracking and working on.

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.

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.

Entertainment header missing

My xbox decided to reset itself

When is there going to be a fix for UHD/HDR/4k video playback for Netflix and Prime video? I have done every troubleshooting step there is, other then throwing the xbox done out of my window.
