Control Pioneer AV Receiver with Kinect

I have a Pioneer VSX522 receiver. When setting it up through the XBOX, it sends a volume up command that works. It then sends a Mute command that also works. Once the setup is complete, volume up and down do not work. It shows on the TV that it is doing
it but the receiver does not respond as it did during setup. Mute works as does the power on/off with the XBOX. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get the volume up and down working?

Question about upcoming Xbox one remote

The official news post about the remote *only* says that Kinect is used for IR blasting your TV and your AV receiver. It doesn't say that Kinect is used to receive the remote's signals for controlling the console itself.

Given that, and given that the console does have its own IR receiver, I'd assume that control of the console itself is direct using the remote. Kinect is just needed for TV/AV control, as the remote does not send signals to those directly.

Remote > IR > Console = console control.

Remote > IR > Console---Kinect > IR > TV & AV = TV & AV control

 

How to remove devices from Xbox One?

I originally connected my devices (A/V receiver, ATT Uverse Cable Box, Pioneer TV) to my Xbox One. After giving it a try with everything connected that way, I decided to not use my A/V receiver.

Since I had input the AV receiver as a device, I can't remove it but I can add another one. The reason is I want to use the Kinect to change the volume of the TV since its not connected to a AV receiver any longer.

How do I remove the AV receiver from the "Devices" panel in the "TV & OneGuide settings?"

 

exact same problem here with a pioneer vsx421
