    Unable to figure out how to use my laptop as a monitor for Xbox One


    I have essentially given up. I truly cannot figure out how to connect my xbox to my laptop and get the display to work. I do not have a TV but my xbox already has my account signed in on there. Ive tried connecting my xbox and laptop via HDMI cable. The xbox has 2 different HDMI ports and Ive tried both of them but my laptop still says there is no other display. I tried to do it through bluetooth but not even my xbox shows up there, the laptop has blluetooth services. Also, I am not sure but the way I check to see if I can change the display to the xbox is by going to my laptop settings>system>display and pne of the options is Multiple Displays. I click connect and it says no display is found. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP, I BEG

    :)

    No, that won't help Most laptop HDMI ports (and I'm talking 99% of them) are outputs only. They can't receive input.

    They’re almost no laptops with an HDMI in. It’s an out

    You can stream your Xbox using remote play to the Xbox app on your laptop.
