  1. Content Restrictions not working with Netflix


    I am trying to put content restrictions on my xbox based on Age to prevent video access to any movies over PG-13. We had this setup previously and it completely blocked Netflix before until the xbox pin/password was entered. Now, Netflix is no longer blocked
    at all. This just started recently. I am in the preview program if that helps.

    Amazon actually allows you into Amazon but you can't see images or watch any movie that is above the console's Content Restriction age limit. Netflix isn't restricting it at all. As I said, Netflix was completely blocked before until you entered a pin but
    now it is always available. That being said, Amazon is working properly. Apps that are above the restricted level are successfully blocked. Netflix is the only app that I have noticed that is not enforcing the content restrictions properly.

    I have tried a few things to see if it would fix itself:

    Hard Reboot

    Signed out of Netflix

    Uninstalled and Reinstalled Netflix

    :)

  2. Content Restrictions for family member not working

    I have my son set up with an account and added to me under family. I have his content restriction set to 13 and below. However when he is signed in his content restrictions is set to Unrestricted. I have tried several times to make changes, log out, only
    have him signed in, restarted. But nothing I do seems to change this. It is accepting the restriction I set for Block Explicit TV whenever I change it, but Content Restrictions and Web Filtering will not change. Any ideas?

    Content Restrictions for family member not working

    Hi gadgetdad,

    Sorry you're having issues with your Family Settings on your Xbox One. Where are you getting this error? Is it on the TV? If that's the case, then you need to setup your Set top box with Parental Controls. The Xbox does not filter the STB (set top box).
    The Xbox just takes whatever signal it gets for HDMi and passes it to the television. The guide and channels are not from the STB, and just something that MS programs for your select provider.

    Basically the family settings are more for internet and apps. For example. My kids Xbox doesn't have a STB and instead they use the Verizon APP which does block content based on the age set up on their profile. Now you stated that internet also? That should
    be blocked based on your selections. I would go online and verify that it shows their accounts blocked. To check this go to live.xbox.com, then click "my account" under your gamertag in the top right. Then click "Security, family, & forums". After that, Click
    "online safety for Xbox On" Under Privacy & Online safety. Select the profile you want to manage, and ensure the proper settings are there. If you do not see any change, then go ahead and make them here. If you do not see the profile you want, then go to the
    link below and setup your family safety settings.

    NetFlix - Using Voice Support

    Might be something to do with it, my mate lives in France and cant get Amazon Prime or Netflix to work there as there is some region restriction, but as you can actually use Netflix I cant see it being that. Weird in the extreme.

    Xbox apps without Account Login

    You do know that netflix has its own parental settings right? They cannot use the other profiles without the pass code (set in netflix,) hopefully you.didnr give your son the master code

    Every app has their own parental settings it is upto you to set it up

    Xbox isn't responsible for content in the third party apps it's is in you to restrict them within the policies set jn the app itself.

    And yes there is parental settings in netflix if you need help ask netflix

    Xbox Series S Audio Passthrough is still broken and it doesn't work for Netflix.

    I have the same issue, on box Xbox S, and now Xbox X. The passthrough doesn't work for Netflix. Very frustrating as Atmos content from Netflix does not work correct. This is only happening with Netflix, all else is fine with Atmos.

    Content restrictions

    Hey guys -

    That sounds frustrating! Please follow the steps below:

    • Remove your Xbox Live profile from your Xbox One Console
    • Press and hold the power button on your Xbox One until the console completely powers off
    • Re-add your Xbox Live profile to your console
    Please let us know if that does not work so we can try to narrow down the issue even further!
