  1. Controller stops responding during remote play. Have to reboot the Series X to get it to...


    Configuration:

    Xbox controller connected to PC with USB-C cable (have tested with bluetooth with the same results)

    PC Hard wired to network switch

    1gig connection from switch to XBox Series X (All up to date)

    Remote play app launched on my PC

    Most times I can connect and play for 10-15 minutes, then the controller stops responding

    Some time when I connect remotely it never responds to the controller at all

    No matter when the controller stops responding, the Xbox will respond to inputs until I reboot it.

    Killing the Xbox app has no effect
    Rebooting the PC has no effect

    I have updated the firmware on the controller

    Not game specific as this happens in all games

    :)

    Controller stops responding during remote play. Have to reboot the Series X to get it to work again

    - Select Settings

    - Select System

    - Select Console info & updates

    - Select Reset console

    My Xbox Series X is no longer selectable for Remote Play, it was two days ago. How do I get it back?

    I changed my home console to my Series X as suggested (I normally have my older One X as "home" since my kids play it without me being logged into it, I am now down to only 1 out of 5 home transfers available). It did not help. It did not change anything. Only my One X is showing up in my console list for remote play. I have even done yet another system reset (keeping games and apps) after that.

    Other things I have tried today (based on suggestions I've seen elsewhere for this issue), none of which have helped:

    - Change to an alternative MAC address, reboot.

    - Restore to original MAC address, reboot.

    - Manually change system name, reboot.

    - Change to a different network port, reboot.

    - System reset and use my android tablet instead of my android phone during the setup.

    I still think this issue is possibly something with my account on Microsoft's side but I am willing to try more suggestions in order to "trigger" the remote play/remote access option for my Series X again. Something is not triggering the remote play/remote access to my Series X on my account. If I go to xbox.com and search for a game that I own in the web version of the Xbox Store, I get the option to "Install to" but it only shows my old Xbox One X, my Series X is no longer listed their either (it was until two days ago). Also, some limited connection between the Windows Xbox app and my Series X does work. If I try to manually add my Series X through the Windows App, the Windows App tells me to turn on and log into my system. It can tell when I do this with my Series X and goes to the next pop up telling me to press enable on my system. If I had remote play disabled on my Series X, I do get the pop up screen on it telling me to enable remote play. I do this and run through the text (everything passes) but then the sequence stops here. The "press enable" pop up screen in the Windows app does not close on it's own. If I manually close it and restore the process it quickly and automatically progresses through the first two pop up screens (turn on/log in, and then the press enable one) and stops with a "something is wrong, try again later" screen. This shows that there is some amount of data passing between my Windows PC with the Xbox app and my Series X and is why I believe that this problem I am having is outside of my home and something on Microsoft's end with my account but I am willing to try more if there is something I missed and/or did out of sequence.

    how Xbox is polluting the planet.

    couldn’t they made the Xbox series x controller have a rechargeable battery built in like the ps5 and nintendo switch controller. Rechargeable tv remotes. Should be a thing.
