    Xbox One Guide selecting SD channel over HD channel when using Voice Commands

    Whenever I try to watch NBC on my Xbox One by using the "Xbox Watch NBC" voice command the one guide defaults to the SD channel for NBC on Time Warner.

    I have a Cisco 4742HDC cable box from Time Warner. The SD channel for NBC is 13 and the HD channel is 1007.

    I have set the One Guide to only show HD channels and added the HD channels to my favorites on both the cable box and on the One Guide. But as I said before whenever I use the voice command to change channels I cannot get the guide to change to the HD channel.
    All the other channels I have set up the guide defaults to the HD channel with out any problems. Its only the NBC channel using the voice commands. I feel like I am missing something here but I am at a loss as to what that might happen to be.

    Is anyone else having problems with voice commands to the One Guide defaulting to SD channels when there is an HD channel available?

    Xbox One goes to wrong NBC / ABC / CBS on DirecTV

    When I tell my Xbox One I want to watch NBC, it takes me to channel 393, which is a blocked version of NBC instead of channel 008. For some reason DirecTV has NBC on 008 and 393 but I don't get access to 393. When I first got my XB1 it used to take me
    to channel 008 but now it's taking me to a channel I can't watch.

    Anyone else having this issue?

    Time warner cable wrong channels

    Did all that. Still goes to the old channels with voice commands, even though the One Guide shows the correct channels. "Xbox, watch NBC" still goes to 702, even though the new channel is 1203.

    Xbox One Won't find Non-HD Channels

    I have looked at that and even with SD/HD Channels highlighted it still goes straight to the HD Channels. One time when I said 'Xbox watch ESPN' it went to the regular ESPN channel.

    But anything like Watch USA, or Discovery Channel, even NBC or ABC...just goes straight to the 1000s (HD Channels on AT&T Uverse)

    OTA SOLUTION REVEALED

    It changes the channel properly now on my hwpvr150. But with trickery. When I told my xbox watch nbc it changed the channel to 41. But I noticed when I told xbox watch the menu shows "watch knbc/ watch nbc" . When I told xbox watch knbc it properly change
    the channel to 4.1. I tested it again and did confirm. I said watch kcbs instead of watch cbs and it changed to 2.1. Hope this helps

    OneGuide channels are wrong after Time Warner Cable new lineup

    After trying everything I have a solution that worked for me...

    There are 2 things you can do. First, put in a different, but close by zip code in the One Guide settings to re download the guide info. After this happens the One Guide should be correct. Once the One Guide displays the correct stations you can navigate
    to each channel and then say "Watch This Channel" The Voice Command will then remember the correct channel after it tunes to it once. This is tedious and time consuming. The second option is to restore your Xbox to factory defaults. My XBL account remembered
    all of my achievements etc, and the only adverse effect was having to re download my apps, and Forza 5 from the disk. My game progress was still remembered. Once I re-set everything back up from the factory default, all channels (with exception of the local
    channels for some reason) tuned correctly using the voice commands. For the local channels I used the first fix and used the One Guide and the "Watch This Channel"command for it to remember ABC, NBC, News 14, CBS, Fox etc... I hope this helps, and Good Luck!!!

    XB1 sports on your tv question...

    it is like I said Stud.... if your provider issues its guide to the XB1, you can use direct verbal commands.. watch NBC WATCH SONS OF ANARCHY etc.. If you provider does not issue a guide... you can still use it.... but have to be specific WATCH CHANNEL
    5 WATCH CHANNEL 192... but to do this.. you will have to teach the Kinect IR Blaster to "learn" your remote functions.. IE if you press 5 on your TV remote that signal's band is learned by the Kinect to mimic 5 etc etc etc
