    The menu/pause button doesn't work on Remote Play


    How do I get that button working on Remote Play? I can play fine with everything else, but can't pause or go into inventory or whatever else that button will do in games!

    :)

    The menu/pause button doesn't work on Remote Play

    Hi, I have the same issue when I do remote play from my tablet, it all works perfectly fine with the exception of the pause button (the one with the 3 horizontal lines). Controller works perfectly when connected to a console or IOS device. Is just an issue with the android version of the app.

    The menu/pause button doesn't work on Remote Play

    Morning! Just to confirm (because a lot more folks get this mixed up than you think), when you say "Remote Play" you are referring to the ability to play your console from another PC connected to the same Wi-Fi locally, right? You're not referring to Cloud Gaming? I just need to make sure.

    Meanwhile, does that controller happen to have the same problem in any other games you play natively on the console or the PC? In case it does have that problem in other places, it could be that your controller is having a bad hardware day--or week--and you may need to submit a repair ticket for your controller.

    Media Remote

    I hope there's a new update for the media remote for better functionality of the bluray player, menu buttons work perfectly if using the xbox controller, but using the remote hitting play/pause twice just to bring up the menu and selecting scene or main
    menu., plus no quick way to get rid of the menu feedback unless using a controller. While movie is playing. Disappointed so far in M$

    Xbox One Media Remote - Pop-up/ Start Menu buttons do not work during Blu-Ray playback

    OMGOSH you guys!

    I made a little progress. Ok, so the share and option buttons don't do a dang thing on the media remote during playback. (Please fix this Microsoft)

    But! If you press the pause/play button you will see the play, fast, back menu pop up on screen.

    To the far right you will see three white fullstops/periods "..."

    Navigate with the media remotes buttons to this ... icon and click it with the middle button on the remote.

    THIS, brings up a menu which shows menu, subtitles on/off, subtitles, pop-up menu and more!

    It's not ideal, but it's at least something to make the remote a little more useful.

    Thanks for reading, y'all be good :3

    media remote

    I have been using a white remote for years and just got a new xbox for another room. some of the printing on the buttons on the white one have worn off.

    I went out and saw the black remote and bought it for the other room. what were these people thinking.

    no "green" button. the only way I have found to get to the main menu is press back several times

    no stop button.

    a stupid combined play/pause button. when I fast forward or rewind I want to press play to play not to pause.

    no tv function button so it will act as a tv remote instead of just xbox control

    I may have to go to eBay to buy the old white remote.
