Console remote play

Thank you for your prompt and detailed replies. That is great news and I appreciate it.

It is possible, yes.

You should first "Turn On" remotely your console (not just loading a game remotely).

So it properly is powered on and on full display, then you can remote play and load the game.

When you are back in front of your TV you can manually go to your Xbox Guide and end the streaming / remote play and continue from where you left it.

Take in consideration that you will have to disable the turning your console off automatically if is inactive for any period of time, and if your console is connected via HDMI-CEC consider the same parameter of your TV, so it won't turn your Xbox as well.

In short, it is possible to do what you want, but you might end spending more energy by doing so.

Hope you're doing great today Scarybear

Yes, you can do that. Basically when you do remote play your console turns on.
So, as long as you don't select "shutdown" console manually the console is stay active depending on the energy settings established by you previously (I mean, how much the console takes to suspend, etc)

Hi Squidward66, my name is Daniel. I am an independent advisor who is willing to help you.

For me, it is an honor to write to you and try to help you in any way possible, for my part I will do my best to try to solve any questions/problems you are presenting.

I'm sorry you're going through this problem, from what I understand you want to use remote play of your console with your mobile phone using the Xbox application, is that correct? If so, I found the following information for you:

If remote play is already enabled on your console and the mobile app asks you to enable it on Xbox, go to the My Library tab and select Consoles. Then scroll down to refresh the list of consoles.

If you are performing these steps correctly, but your console still does not appear in the list, you can find more information at the following link:

If you have any other questions, let me know, I will be happy to continue helping you.

Best regards,
Daniel.
