    If my TV is already on, then turning of my Xbox actually closes my TV... And the opposite also happens. If my TV is closed and then I turn off my Xbox, it turns my TV on. Is this normal?

    :)

    Xbox one tv doesn't power on with start up

    As of recently whenever I turn on my Xbox the tv doesn't turn on with it. This was not an issue before and nothing in my settings has changed. I have a 40 in Samsung model LN40D630M3F. I tried having the tv on prior to turning on the xbox to see if there
    was any signal being sent and it resulted in the tv turning off with start up. Doing the opposite, I tried turning the console off while having the tv already off and the tv didn't turn on. It seems the Xbox can only turn the tv off.

    Any one with a similar issue or a way to fix?

    How to Get Xbox One to Turn TV Off with Voice Command

    Does anyone here know how I can get my Xbox One to turn my TV off with the voice command? Its already connected to my TV as I can mute the volume, turn up the volume. But when I say Xbox Turn Off TV or Television, it doesn't do anything.

    Make sure the TV is off and the Xbox is off. So that way, when you turn the Xbox on, it will then turn on the TV.

    Yes, it is normal. If you have set up your TV model and in the 'TV & One Guide' settings for the xbox to turn off devices etc. The IR blaster actually sends a 'power toggle' command to the TV as opposed a 'power on'. So if your TV is off, when the xbox sends
    the command, it will obviously turn on and vice versa. People have asked to be able to setup discrete on/off commands in the feed back section.

  7. Yes. The XB1 does not detect whether or not your TV/Cable box is already on or not. It just sends the Power signal whenever you turn it on or off.

    Turning on my Xbox turns my TV OFF!

    Odd cause mine only turns the TV on when it's not on, but doesn't turn the tv off. But my HDMI goes to my receiver, then the recievers HDMI goes to the TV and it still somehow manages to turn the tv on when everything is off. But it wont turn on/off the
    receiver. It did turn the cable box on and off though. And my receiver doesn't have a Passthrough in it either. Kinda odd really.
