USB Device Unavailable

the old thread http://forums.xbox.com/xbox_forums/xbox_support/xbox_one_support/f/4274/t/1846459.aspx

was closed. There is no solution or fix for this, the fix is "move the xbox one sticks every 30 seconds or so" that's not a fix. This is still broken and it's really disappointing that MS has not acknowledge this as a fault or committed to fixing it.

The old thread feels like it's been locked and buried to try and hide a serious problem.

there is a known issue with ext hdds hibernating when there little activity and it just goes into some kind of power saving mode like hibernating, check if that's the problem, this will happen and any system.

Although a small update but at least an update however I think we all knew Microsoft could produce this already and didn't want to say they had. I feel now that as more and more users are experiencing this issue Microsoft felt they had to now tell us something
and with the mysterious and very slow investigation team taking 6-7 months to watch a media file through ANY device, it seems someone finally decided to do this.

I like the 'Microsoft are not taking the blame for this or acknowledging it is actually a Microsoft issue' line you added to say 'For now, though, we don't need any more device', which implies you are still blaming devices and possibly may require more going
forward or at a later date.

I wish you could be honest and just say, this is a Media Player App issue and it is most certainly NOT a device issue unless you mean that every compatible USB, or external hard drive which can be connected to the Console experiences this issue, then sure,
every single manufacturer of devices are to blame.....I wonder if they would like to hear that their devices are being blamed for a fault in which we all know lies with Microsoft.

Strange how every single compatible device work just fine with all PC's, laptops, Xbox 360's, and EVERY other machine that allows USB connections, but just not the Xbox One........very strange!!!!!!!!!

here is how to reproduce it. go to walmart and buy an xbox one. install the media player on it. then put any downloaded video(mkv, avi, mp4, ect) on a flash drive or hard drive and play all. just let it play for a while and it will eventually happen. it
may be within a few minutes and it can take over an hour. the xb1 doesn't seem to discriminate against any type or brand of drive. have the drive plugged directly into the xb1. if u stream it from a computer thru an Ethernet cable it won't happen. u must have
the drive plugged directly into the console. let me know if this trick doesn't give u the same problems as it has given all of us misses quinzel.

I'm getting the same problem while streaming from my Windows 8.1 PC. I had almost no problems streaming from my Windows 7 PC. It would happen occasionally, but now it happens 2 seconds in. Sometimes files won't even open. .mp3, .mp4, .avi, .mkv. It doesn't
matter. They all close.
