    Purchased OTA Equipment -- Not a Preview Member


    Hello,

    Based on the announcement last week about an OTA TV Tuner for US Xbox One customers, I went out and bought a Hauppage WinTV HVR 955Q tuner and a Mohu Leaf 50 Antenna... Unfortunately, I did not realize this was for preview members only. The announcement
    just got me that excited, I guess. I don't have any friends who are preview members so I can't get an invite. I really don't want to send all of this equipment back...

    Can someone help me out? Since I've got all of the equipment hooked up and ready to go, it would be nice if I could use it!

    Thanks,

    :)

    Also, even if you aren't added to the program, you don't need to send it back. It will hopefully roll out to the public in the May update...it's working very well for me! Much nicer experience than the Homeworx box I was using.

    Hey, guys! Very happy to see you all excited about the ability to use a OTA device in the US, however the preview program is so that these
    features can be tested before released to the general public. If you would like to help with that,
    please ask other users in private or Xbox Live messages for invites, not on the forums. Otherwise, once the feature is released to the public, you will be able to use your OTA device.

    Thanks for understanding!
