Can't cast video to xbox anymore (03/2019) Xbox cannot be detected on network for some reason

Arkadesh00 · Mar 14, 2019

I have always been able to cast from my devices to my Xbox as it is the only device I can do this from. But tonight, when I went to do this the app I always use took ages to searching for a device. I waited, tried a different app, uninstalled the app and
tried again, reset my phone, reset the Xbox, reset the router, checked the network settings made sure I was on the right network, someone from the message helper centre suggested to change DNS settings which did nothing. I have tried an android phone, an apple
phone and an ipad but none of them connect even on YouTube or Netflix. Netflix plays from my Xbox and is connected to the Internet, but I have tried everything and I can't stream to the Xbox like I do all the time.

You should see if the video app is up to date on the xbox one. I run into this often and when I launch the app on the xbox one it has to up date and this it works after.

Hey there,

We will be locking this older thread due to it being revived by a new post. If the issue is
on going, we recommend creating a new thread

Hi Arkadesh,

Thanks for your post! To troubleshoot this, you may want to attempt a
Soft Factory Reset on your console, this will correct any software errors that could be affecting the discovery protocol to cast from your devices while keeping games and applications installed. To properly perform the reset, be sure to select "Reset and
keep my games & apps" and have your Xbox Profile's email and password memorized to sign back in after the reset.

I hope this helps.

The Microsoft/Xbox employees responsible for implementing new features cannot be reached through the community. I would recommend you to send your suggestion through the Xbox Idea Hub:

Not a console.
They announced plans for it today at GDC, and had some tests streaming to Chrome web browser with Assassin's Creed Odyssey. It is exciting and it's the future.

And as for knowing what Xbox is doing to keep up?
They're throwing their weight around and doing the same thing. We will hear more about this service this year, I'm sure, so keep an eye out. It's called project xCloud.
