  1. Skype question


    When using the skype app on Xbox One, if you are skypeing with a friend and playing a multiplayer game at the same time, your voice is broadcast BOTH in Skype and in-game chat. Also, any in-game chat from other players is also passed through your headset.
    This is both very consfusing and annoying.

    I was wondering if it was possible to mute yourself, and all others in-game, whilst you use skype to talk to someone else. I realise you can just mute everyone in-game yourself, but this still means they will hear you talking to someone.

    :)

    You can have four video participants at a time, yes.

    I believe you can have more audio chats going if no one is using video.

    Skype Question

    G'day Penguin! Let's get this Skype stuff sorted out. =)

    First off, Skype is not currently able to snap into the right column. You can snap other apps while talking on Skype though.

    As for the notifications, let's make sure everything is enabled in your console's settings. From the Settings menu, select Preferences, and add a check mark to the Show Skype notifications option.

    Are your call notifications not coming through at all, or have you only noticed this behavior in a particular app or game?

    Sorry but the Kinect Sensor is the only camera that will work with the console. It is worth purchasing the bundle with the sensor though. You can use voice commands to turn your console, TV and stereo equipment on/off and launch games, etc.

    IMO it is a fantastic piece of equipment that no console should be without.

    However, the option on whether or not to purchase one is entirely up to you.
