    Suspend and resuming multiple apps confusion.


    In an interview Microsofts Albert Penello stated that the xbox one can run 4 apps at once.

    All 4 of these apps will suspend and resume as the user switches between them.

    For example, you loadup Netflix, IE, Youtube and Uplay.

    You should now be able to switch between those 4 apps and each app should resume instantly from where you last were.

    Is this correct? Because my xbox does not work like that.

    I load netflix, put a film on, then switch to IE.

    I go back to Netflix and film is still running. Excellent.

    Pop straight back to IE. Still running. Excellent

    I then go to Youtube, then back to Netflix and... Netflix has quit and needs to reload.

    I pop back to Youtube and that has also quit and needs to load.

    IE is still running.

    I check Youtube and Netflix and they are both still running. Now i have 3 apps running at once.

    So i load a fourth app, check to see what is still running, and Youtube and IE have both quit, leaving only Netflix and my current app open.

    Why do the apps keep quitting?

    Another example , i was watching Netflix, switched to Dead rising 3, then back over to Netflix, expecting the film to resume, but instead had to reload the app.

    Why would loading a game cause an app to reset?

    Summing up: i can't have more than 2 apps running at once, although sometimes i have had 3, i even had 4 apps once but after a couple of minutes of switching two of them randomly quit. And loading a game can also cause apps to quit.

    Is this a known bug in the OS?

    Do i have a faulty xbox?

    Or have i misunderstood how the machine functions?

    :)

    TV loses Xbox One signal briefly

    This used to happen to me when resuming games or when I had multiple apps open. Now I just hard quit games/apps after I finish playing.

    Anyone having issues turning on XB1 right now?

    Try a hard reset. If you are just suspending it, then it will just resume in the state you suspended it in.

    Suspend and resuming multiple apps confusion.

    Can anyone from support PLEASE confirm how many apps the xbox one should keep open at once.

    Just to clarify, i dont mean snap mode, with two apps side by side, but the machines ability to have multiple apps open at once.

    I have a suspicion my console is not functioning correctly as i can only reliably have two apps open at once, the others close down.

    Thanks.

    It depends on what apps your running, apps that do video will usaully shut down to provide the other app access to video ram. Also having a game running will also limit the amount of apps i believe. Apparantly there is a memory leak in the OS software
    so its kinda unpredictable right now.

    Suspend and resume is broken and unreliable.

    The suspend and resume feature is handled differently by different games (probably due to their resource requirements). Games like Forza 5 and Battlefield 4 seem to struggle with the suspend and resume feature but other games I have had resume the next day
    after using multiple other apps.

    Help, does this happen with your xbox one?

    Yes, it happens just the same. It's because the app is suspended, and resumes where it was, then goes to the page requested. Nothing wrong, just how the system is designed to re-launch apps quickly by keeping them running in the background.

    Suspend/Resume

    THIS!

    I've actually contacted MS Support for this, which they had no response to. They believe that it may be related to the huge update they released.

    You're not the only one brother.
