    I have an Xbox One X that magically turns my TV and receiver on and controls the volume; when I had cable it also controlled the cable box. When I moved and didn't feel like setting up my Dolby Atmos speakers so I got rid of my receiver, the One X had no problem controlling the volume through the TV instead.

    I have an Xbox Series X configured to do the same. The volume control never works and a hard reset is required after every update for the power control work. I haven't tried it with a receiver, but I expect that would be a waste of time.

    I realize that the Series X uses CEC for device control and the One X probable uses an IR blaster. I realize that the Series X has a lot of highly advanced and expensive stuff inside and the addition of an IR Blaster might add a nickel or two to the build cost. But sometimes new or different isn't an upgrade and you should use technology that actually works and costs a few pennies more.

    You guys managed to find space for an IR receiver in the Series X and adding an IR blaster was too much of a puzzle for you? The IR receiver is useless. None of the functions it's meant to control actually work because they're all retransmitted over CEC, which has never worked properly in all the days that HDMI has existed.

    You could have saved a few pennies more by leaving the useless IR receiver out as well. As it stands I have to use my TV remote to control everything I used to use my Xbox media remote for anyway.

    how do you turn off game mode on xbox one x

    The mode you are referring to is going to be on the television or monitor. I have my Xbox set to control the TV so when I turn on the Xbox it will turn the TV on automatically to the right setting and mode.

    Xbox One Randomly Turns On

    Is the Xbox turning on at the same time that you are turning on your TV or switching inputs on your TV? My Samsung TV switches on my Xbox automatically.

    There's an option for the Xbox to automatically turn on/off the TV when it's turned on/off.

    Take a look here:

    It's under Settings -> All Settings -> TV & OneGuide -> Device Control.

    How to turn on my TV automatically by turning on my xbox

    Hello Ks4lyphe, I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

    o turn on your TV automatically when you turn on your Xbox using the CEC option, you can follow these steps

    To turn on your TV automatically when you turn on your Xbox using the CEC option, you can follow these steps

    Press the Xbox button on your controller to turn on your console.

    Go to Profile and system.

    Select Settings.

    Go to Generals.

    Select TV and display options.

    Select Device Control.

    Enable HDMI-CEC

    If you've already enabled CEC in your TV settings and you're still having issues, it could be that your TV doesn't fully support Xbox's HDMI-CEC feature.

    In that case, I would recommend that you contact Xbox support for additional assistance, remember that I am a gamer just like you with a little more experience in the field of Software and Hardware.
