    Freeview HD with Xbox now supported?


    Hi Guys,

    I have read the following article on Pocket lint with regards to OneGuide TV service support for the UK.

    I am sure many of you are in a similar boat to me with regards to having freeview HD already built into your TV.

    I have made the decision that I will purchase a Freeview HD box in order to use the Xbox One TV features.

    My question is, does it matter which brand of freeview box I go for?

    The details thus far have been very vague.

    I would ideally like to have it purchased an up and running for the start of the World Cup to make use of the Destination Brazil features.

    "Microsoft will start to roll out its June update for
    Xbox One     next week as Pocket-lint understands that elements of it will be needed to support the company's dedicated World Cup hub Destination Brazil and the Brazil Now companion application.

    The OneGuide TV service will become fully functional in the UK with the update, and both World Cup services link to it and use its abilities to hook up with live matches from Brazil. And as the World Cup kicks off with Brazil versus Croatia on 12 June, and
    Microsoft confirming that they will be live in time for the first match, it will have to have been installed on consoles in the country before then.

    As well as OneGuide support for the UK, which provides a rich metadata-filled experience and control over Sky,
    Virgin Media and Freeview set-top-boxes through the

    Xbox One    "

    Static through HDMI in

    I get the same thing occasionally with my Humax HD FOX T2 Freeview HD set top box in the UK.

    Its a fairly recent issue, there haven't been any software updates on my Freeview box, so therefore must assume that its something in Xbox that has changed.

    HDMI Pass-through Question

    Dunno about Sky, I use a freeview HD dongle in my laptop and watch on 360, media centre gets tv guide via web and puts it on xbox, channel changes, scheduling recordings, supported from 360.

    So I would be very surprised if Freeview wasn't supported on XB1. It would be a step backwards if it didn't. MS has been supporting TV on xbox via media extender for quite a while. They may drop the media extender but supported tv receivers should still
    be supported. I have a Samsung freeview DVR, with HDMI CEC (anynet+) so it should work ok.

    Xbox one tv in the uk help please

    Your TV would need to be able send its internal Freeview out via HDMI so that it can be passed through the Xbox One, you'll need to read your TVs manual to see if this feature is available to you, failing this you will need a Freeview HD STB to use in place
    of the built-in Freeview.
