    Couple questions about the One


    Hey guys, just wondering, can you ever close games/apps? Like I opened Netflix up and I wanted to close it, but all you can really do is go home and do something else. Does it ever close it properly? I have "instant on" mode now. Does that mean Netflix will
    there ready to go when I turn it on next time? Sorry if I'm being confusing, but I'm just wondering. If that's the case, I may go to power saver mode.

    Oh yeah, what's up with Xbox recording game clips randomly? It just like does it by itself lol. I have a couple of clips cause of it. Is that normal? Can you disable it?

    P.S Is the Kinect amazing or what? I seriously love it. I was commanding everything with my voice! Haha. Who needs a controller anymore? Just love it. I'm very happy with it. I think more so than my One. Couple questions about the One :p Haha kidding. They're both awesome!

    :)

    Couple of questions about the Xbox One..

    I used to think the same thing - why couldn't I use a voice command to eject the disc?

    ...and then someone mentioned that I would still have to get up to remove the disc anyways. My reaction?

    Oh. Yeah...

    Couple of questions about the Xbox One..

    Haha ok this thread went on a strange tangent.

    Haven't tried but if you highlight the disc square on the home screen (bottom right corner) and press the menu button, does a list come up with eject on it? I'm at work so can't check but that seems like the most logical place it'd be.

    As for external HDD, hopefully soon as I think its a great option. Hand for taking digital games to friends without having to DL the game again.

    Couple questions about the One

    1st. Yes press the menu button AKA Start button on the app to close it. Also, yes quick resume will resume your gane exactly where you left off the last time the game was in. Same for some apps.

    2nd. Yes you can disable random recordings, but at the cost of you saying "record that". They are working on this

    3rd. Yes the Kinect 2.0 is amazing Defy Lightning. I couldn't imagine the Xbox One without it.

    Derp! Thank you Doc. I shoulda told my Xbox to record that when I derped hard on Max earlier. I really like it, but damn do I derp it sometimes lol.

    I don't really mind the random recordings. I just wanted to make sure a ghost wasn't whispering Xbox record that to my Kinect. Where do you disable it?

    I definitely agree with number 3! I just can't see myself without it. Voice commands are way too fun haha.

    Well, it used to be under preferences. But i can not seem to find it. I believe they moved it in the recent update preview. I apologize, I can not find it.

    Couple of questions about the Xbox One..

    @tohellnback, Yep you did... lol

    @Pyro, I'm a bit obsessive about washing my hands (suppressed immune system) and use a lot of lotion to keep them from drying out so I can at least appreciate that part of it. Here's a little trick I learned that keeps any shiny/chrome buttons from getting
    fingerprints. I flip my hand over so that the fingernail touches the button rather than my finger tip. The X1's eject button is a capacitive touch, so you barely have to touch it. I wipe my console down regularly to keep dust off it, but I haven't touched
    the recessed area where the eject button is yet... and I just checked, it doesn't have a mark on it. Worth a try.

    Couple of questions about the Xbox One..

    So witty, aren't we? Here's the fact of the matter: the button is at least large enough for a finger to touch. Because it's meant to be used with a finger. So saying that it is not large enough to retain a fingerprint is yet another idiotic thing to say.
    I was playing it nice at first, but you're dead set on being a jerk. Why someone would feel compelled to act in such a way is beyond me, save for being unfulfilled in other areas of their life. Instead of spending time on these forums, I'd be glad to direct
    you to some self-help resources.

    Pro tip: just because you have a crappy life, doesn't mean you should try and pass it on to others. Maybe if you were working proactively towards bettering your life, you wouldn't feel so compelled to be such a d!ck to a complete stranger for no apparent
    reason.
