You must contact their customer care if you are still unable to connect your Wii to the Xbox since it is a very challenging issue. You can read essayshark review for more info as there is no way that this connection problem should have happened in the Xbox.

Great Question,

Unfortunantly you cant connect a wii to your Xbox (unless you might have the day one patch) which was something back when they announced the Xbox One. Personally Ive never heard of you being able to connect a wii to and Xbox One but if this didnt help to
much or you need more detailed help go here https://support.xbox.com/

Is the xbox connected directly to the tv or via an AV Receiver?

As you suggest it looks like your best option would probably be to connect your console via HDMI cable directly to the television and then connect your console to the AV receiver via an optical cable.

Hey there GoMaizeNblue,

To clarify, Xbox One doesn't support CEC. The Xbox One S has a built in Blaster that will work if a Kinect is not connected as well.

If you'd like to see CEC supported, we'd recommend you to leave Feedback about that
HERE.

What steps have you tried already with this issue? For starters we'd recommend resetting up OneGuide to see if it helps out and this guide will assist with that.

Let us know how it goes!

I have an older DirecTV HD DVR connected to my Xbox One also and all is working well now.

In order to get it to work, I had to connect the DVR, via HDMI, directly to the Xbox One's HDMI input. The DVR no longer passes through the AV receiver. The AV receiver's HDMI out is now connected to a different input on the TV. Fortunately, my AV receiver,
a Yamaha, turns off and on automatically with the TV, a Sharp, otherwise I don't think that everything would work, but I'm not sure. The optical out from the Xbox is the only connection to the AV receiver for the DirecTV and Xbox audio.

I don't know the details of how CEC over HDMI works, but if it is Ethernet based, you may not need a direct connection between two devices for the commands to reach the right device. For example, since my Xbox one is connected to the TV via HDMI and the
AV receiver is also connected to the TV the same way, the TV could be passing the commands along to all connected devices. If this is the case, you should be able to get your system to function fully as well.

Good luck!
