    I can't stream from my console to my phone, even though cloud streaming works OK.


    As per title. I can use the streaming app to stream from the cloud, but I really want to stream from my console. When I choose that option on the app, it says to join the insider programme and points me to the website. Tried updating all firmware etc and makes no difference... Any ideas?

    Cloud syncing blows chunks! ;-)

    But the cloud is the future of gaming! There will be no discs or even consoles, everything will be streamed. I can't believe this blasphemy!

    Microsoft Surface 2 cannot connect to 360 using Smartglass

    I'm having the exact same issues. The Xbox 360 Smartglass app worked great for streaming music and videos from my Laptop PC running Windows 8.0 to our Xbox 360, but since having upgraded to Windows 8.1 I can't get it to work correctly at all, even after
    uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Oddly enough I can connect to the console just fine through the Xbox 360 Smartglass app on my Windows Phone. Problem is I can't stream anything from my phone to it once I've made a connection, but perhaps that could be
    because I have nothing native on it and everything I do have in the way of music and videos is in the cloud? I don't know, but methinks it's an app issue for the PC and that Microsoft is just letting it go as an unofficial way of telling 360 console owners
    they are no longer supporting the platform and to upgrade to the Xbox One if you want a Smartglass app that works.

    Xbox app streaming black screen

    Same here.

    Since a few days, Xbox App stream just show a black screen, whether I want to stream from cloud, my XSX, or XO.

    Old "Companion" app still streams perfectly for XO. Cloud works perfectly from browsers on the PC. It's clearly the Xbox App that's at fault here.
    Did you find a way to solve this?

    I have the same problem in my laptop!! My xbox app don't work for xcloud or stream from my xbox series.

    Give your family access to your entire games library anytime, anywhere

    @ LostKauz Good question. If you can stream your game from the cloud from any console, and play as your streaming, why install at all, assuming you have a good enough connection to support this? I heard that installs are mandatory. Why, if you could stream
    from the cloud? That seems to make no sense.

    I have Frontier as my only option for internet, so streaming anything is a hassle.
