    Share Movies & TV Content on Home Xbox


    I have two Profiles that I use on my xbox. One is my personal profile that I can use to buy content like movies and games, which can bill things to my credit card. The other is a general profile for others to use. The general account does not have any
    payment info to nobody can charge anything to me without me know about it. I share xbox live gold on the device and can access nearly everything I need to without switching to my personal profile. However, if I want to watch any of my purchased movies in
    the Movies and TV app I have to change profiles and log in to my personal profile. It would be nice to share access to my purchased movies across profiles logged into my home Xbox.

    :)

    Movies and TV Xbox Family Sharing

    Why am I not able to share movies or TV shows that I have purchased the rights to view with family members that are connected to my account using the family share feature? Currently if I have multiple Xbox consoles and my family member decides to watch a
    movie or TV show using Microsoft Movies and TV they must be logged in with my account. If while they are watching a movie I cannot use my account on a different console without stopping the digital content being watched on the separate console. Can the movies
    and tv app be integrated with the family sharing feature so family members can share their movies and tv content so everyone can watch and play together?

    Transfer purchased movies from Movies and TV app to external hard drive

    Hi there!

    Thanks for the support message.

    You can designate the account that purchased the movies as the Home Xbox on the other console (support.xbox.com/.../my-home-xbox) and you will then be able to share
    the content with other accounts on the other console.

    Cheers!

    Transfer minecraft and all dlc to childs account.

    I would share my account by making her xbox the home, but her mother who is also a gamer watches tv through, purchased movies. .
    is she watching movies on the same Xbox or is it a different Xbox that is already your Home Xbox?

    if you don't already have a different Xbox set as your Home then setting up the Xbox your daughter uses as your Home shouldn't cause any problems.

    Xbox live music and video question for the new Xbox One

    Sharing movies and TV shows on Xbox One will work the same way as Xbox 360. The Xbox Video content you purchased on Xbox 360 will be available to you on Xbox One, and if you purchased the video, you can freely roam to any Xbox One and Xbox 360 and watch
    your content..

    Transfer purchased movies from Movies and TV app to external hard drive

    Hi, thanks for the reply.

    I tried allocating the xbox which has the movie on "Movie and TV" app to "my home xbox" and then trying to tie in to that home xbox "Movies and TV" from my daughters xbox (which is currently designated as "this is not my home xbox") but am not able to see
    the movie when I go into "movies and TV" from her xbox. I am sure I am doing something wrong; any help would be appreciated. (I am able to see the movie from my pc tho but doesn't help as my daughter wants to watch these movies on her xbox). Thanks again...
