    Hello!

    I'm an independent advisor and a member of the Xbox Community just like you.

    I'm happy to help you today.

    Log in to the "Xbox" app, in the upper left you will find the option to stream from your console to the app.

    Hey William!

    Nice to meet you! My name is Christian, an independent advisor. I'm here to help you out.

    Try to perform a factory reset keep my games and apps:

    NOTE: Don't worry this will not delete your saved data and progress or installed games on your account but this will remove your logged in accounts and account that is set as Xbox home on your console. You can re-sign in and set as Xbox home all the accounts if there's any after the factory reset keep my games and apps process.

    If you’re ready to reset your console to the factory default settings, follow these steps:

    Press the Xbox button  to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

    Select Reset console.

    On the Reset your console? screen, you'll see three options:

    Reset and keep my games & apps. Use this option as your primary choice when troubleshooting. It resets the OS and deletes all potentially corrupted data without deleting your games or apps.

    I hope this helps.

    Best Regards,

    Twitch Game Chat Issues

    Any update on when it may be fixed? This has been this way forever now. Just let us stream cross play the same as PlayStation does so we don’t have to spend another $800 on equipment. Do you know the specs needed on your PC to use a capture card to stream from Xbox to PC? Not to mention most of them require an independent microphone as well instead of just the headset. Your response is telling me I need to spend at least 250 or more on the equipment and because I have a Mac book I also need to drop about $699.00 and use that for streaming only. That’s crazy man and if Sony can do it and not to mention Windows is allowing it..then why not Xbox? Blows my mind. Forgot to add webcam cost as well.

    Zune

    Also, either way, that whole method is besides the point because klast time I checked, I didn't need a Zune pass to play music/videos on my PC, or even just to see that it's there if by some crazy coincodence it had to be streamed.
    Zune on XBox 360 does show the (music) videos I purchased via Zune on PC, and I have problemjust to stream/download it to my XBox 360. I don't understand why this isn't the case with
    purchased music, as I already paid for it and therefore shouldn't have to pay a needless monthly fee simply to stream
    my purchased content.
