Rented Movie off Xbox Video Expired within 24 hours

Hi Marilyn! Are you getting an error message? One thing to note, once you play a rented movie, you have 24 hours to finish it. So if you started it at 5pm last night, it will expire at 5pm tonight. You can refer to our Xbox
Video Support article if you have any questions.

Hope that helps. Cheers!

For Starters, You only have the movie rental for 24 hours on Xbox Live & not Two Weeks..

Secondly, I see no point in having the movie rentals done by a 24 Hour limit..

They should have a set number of views per movie rental, when rented & if you don't use them within a few days, they expire... NOT give you 24 Hours before expiry & if your time to expiry is below the movie length...It cuts you off from watching the movie
& gives you a Viewing Licence Expiry Error etc...

It's my Prerogative, to watch the movie rental, whenever I please, within the 24 Hour Period too.. I was a bit annoyed about it, but I just wanted to watch the movie for a second time, thinking I had enough time to expiry & it cut out on me etc..

Lucky, I didn't have screaming kids, wanting to watch The Adventures of Tin Tin Movie & the movie cut out..

If you're planning on renting movies through Xbox Video, here is the explanation from the Xbox Support FAQ on how movie rentals work:

-----------

Renting movies

When you rent a movie through Xbox Video, it's available to you for 14 days. This 14-day countdown starts when you make the purchase. When you start playing the movie, another clock starts ticking: you have a 24-hour period of time during which you can watch
the movie as many times as you want.

Let's say you rent a movie at 3:00 P.M. on May 1. If you start watching the movie at 8:00 P.M. on May 5, your rental period expires at 8:00 P.M. on May 6.

Note Unlike a movie that you buy, a movie that you rent must be viewed on the device it was rented for (Xbox 360, computer, Windows Phone 7.

I found this for you on the site.

Hope this explains it a bit for you.

Hey there NavyOps!

I moved your post into a brand new thread so that we could tailor our support specifically to you!

When you mentioned you can't view your rental at all on Xbox Video, were you getting any error codes on your console by chance?

Also, if in case you rented The Lego Movie and you started to watch it within the rental period, this would start a 24 hour or 48 hour period of time during which you can watch the movie as many times as you want.

Feel free to check out our Renting videos through Xbox Video page to see a full description.

Let us know how it goes!
