    Pairing YouTube does not play videos on XBox One


    Just seems to do nothing. Pairing is shown on PC, Code is accepted and it says it's Xbox Connected but when videos are loaded on PC they never show on Xbox.

    Does anyone have this working, have any advice to offer me please.

    Thanks

    :)

    App does not play videos on Xbox One once paired

    App does not play videos on Xbox One once paired.

    Have tried it a few times. The pairing seems to work on laptop and it shows connected to Xbox One and tells you the video is playing on Xbox One but it's still sitting with the pairing code screen.

    If I use back button it returns me to home of YouTube App.

    Anyone any experience of this and can tell me what's wrong if this is a known issue please

    Saving a paired connection with youtube on Xbox One

    Sorry @caseofbase, the pairing done between the YouTube app on your Android tablet and the Xbox One is a function implemented by google/youtube itself. You will need to contact their support to see if they have this ability.

    Xbox One SmartGlass is a separate app that can be paired with your Xbox One console for various control, input, social, and 2nd screen companion experiences (and it will remember your pairing Pairing YouTube does not play videos on XBox One :), but unfortunately it does not function that well specifically
    with controlling the YouTube app at this time (YouTube is working on a fix for that).

    Thanks

    Hi

    I have this working when I pair from my iPhone.

    Youtube has to be selected on XboxOne then go to Youtube on my phone select a video and a little TV symbol appears as it starts to play, When I press that an option appears to choose where to play the video I select Xboxone then after buffering it appears
    on the TV through the Xboxone.

    Hope this helps

    Can I use smartglass as a keyboard?

    If you go to the youtube app on the Xbox One and go to the search you have the option to pair your phone to the youtube app. It'll give a code and you enter it at youtube.com/pair. Then you browse youtube with your phone and when you play a video it'll
    play through your Xbox One. It's way easier than just using the phone for a keyboard.

    .

    Netflix doesn't have it I assume because of the dynamic searching it does where you type a letter and it brings up those titles and narrows it down and the app doesn't really call up the keyboard. It would be useful though.

    Youtube and Netflix Cast no longer functions

    Thanks for the response! Pairing the apps does work for Youtube, so that's better. Netflix doesn't seem to have a similar pairing method available, so I'm still at a loss for that.

    Before, the Xbox showed up on anyone's phone connected to the same wifi network without the need for pairing. Pairing works, but it is a bit of a pain if a guest wants to through a Youtube video on the screen.

    I'm using a Nexus 6 with Android 5.1. The others in my house are all using android as well (4.4 and 4.3) and having the same issue.
