I can no longer stream my xbox via console companion app on my laptop, when I try to test...

Thank u for replying, but i don't think i can stream my xbox one games on my laptop using Xbox beta app,, I can only see the option on Console companion app :/

I want to stream games on my laptop (Windows 10) via the console companion app, but each time I try to connect to my Xbox One, it fails. It also won't accept the Xbox's IP address. Both my laptop and Xbox are on the same network.

I have tried:

Re-naming my Xbox

Restarting both my Xbox and my laptop

Updating the app

Signing in and out of the app

Checking my laptop's firewall

Connecting via both a wirleless wi-fi connection and Ethernet cable

I have been trying all day nothing seems to be working - I've read almost every thread there is on this issue.

Help would be very welcome

Hi,

did you check if the option "allow connections from any device" is enabled on your console as explained in the troubleshooting guide?

My best recommendation for streaming via PC is using a capture card like Elgato or Roxio as this is the best method for streaming with the OBS. I think this is better because if using the Xbox Companion App to stream, it may not work very well on laptop
especially since they are lower quality in performances. Try desktop PCs instead for streaming.

Are you minimizing the Xbox console companion app while using to stream your Xbox to it?

Why are you wanting to stream your xbox to the laptop?

Are you running anything else on the laptop whilst trying to stream?

When your PC and XBOX are in the same net, you can stream your console on your laptop via the companion app:

This way your laptop will work as a screen with the net as the only connection (the controller is plugged to the laptop in this case since you controlling everything from there). Since you're looking after fast download speeds, be sure
to connect to the XBOX to launch the download and then disconnect since the stream is taking bandwidth and slowing down everything else. Just reconnect after a while to check progress.
