  1. Is Cortana getting fixed?


    I want to use voice commands but don't want the game interruption from cortana snapping on to the screen. Is there any way to stop this happening and still use voice through a headset on Xbox?

    The problem is, no port for the kinect on the oneX (I use all the usb ports) so where the old Xbox commands like take a screen or record that would work without temporarily removing you from your game, we now have to use cortana so you lose control of your
    game for a few seconds. So you're driving, you crash, you're flying, you crash, you"re in a battle, you die. It just makes those functions worthless.

    Will MS be making the old Xbox commands usable through the headset or be making cortana work in the background? It feels like they are going backwards with these updates sometimes.

    :)

  2. Cortana cannot "Snap TV"

    Hey there ootmian,

    What happens if you say "Hey Cortana, Snap Live TV" or "Hey Cortana, Snap OneGuide"? The Live TV option via the HDMI In on the Xbox One console is now accessed through One Guide, so getting to it might be a little bit different.

    Hi The King Prawn,

    Just want to check what happens when you try to enable the Xbox commands by following the steps at the bottom of the

    Cortana Voice Commands on Xbox One guide
    . Do you see an error message when enabling that feature?

    Thank you!

  5. Nothing happens, it does not recognise the Xbox commands through the headset unfortunately, I've tried "Xbox" take a screenshot, record that and turn off without any reaction from the machine.

    I tried to take a screenshot on Skyrim earlier (with cortana on) and because it opens cortana as the main program it paused my game and took a shot of the pause menu.

    Xbox One X - one guide not working for Australia

    Ha thanks but this won't fix itself I think Microsoft needs to get their coders in to recode for freeview.

    As for cortana not working with xbox, I have no idea what they are doing to poor cortana but it's not good.

    Kinect stopped working after system update

    I FIGURED IT OUT! For me at least. Go to settings/System/Cortana Settings/Other Privacy Settings/Speech. Make sure the box is checked that is named "Let xbox and cortana collect my speech info".

    The update killed Cortana and this fixed it for me. Best of luck!

    Astro A50 Mic no longer working after March System update

    This fixes the mic symbol.

    First make sure your Headset is updated to the most recent firmware using the astro command center.

    Next make sure your Headset is assigned to your profile under Kinect & Devices / Devices & Accessories. - This fixes Cortana commands and voice to text.

    Next disable Cortana then re enable Cortana it will make you restart your Xbox both times.

    That should work.

    I have an A50 and just figured it out this evening, cortana is working great and voice to text is great too.
