Windows Media Center

I can't believe this isn't an available app! In order for me to use my antenna tv, I have to go purchase a homeworks digital converter or multicast to the xbox one (additional hardware needed for this too).

I'm outraged at how inconvenient this is. I purchased a hdhomerun and was positive my xbox one would pick up this stream via Ethernet, but NOPE!

Please get Media Center onto the xbox one for this and to make streaming stored movies easier!

Troubleshoot Windows Media Center

 

So, apparently, if I want my xbox to be able to play Netflix, Amazon Prime, Redbox Instant and pick up my OTA signals, I need to stick the xbone in a closet and move my xbox 360 into it's place. What a outrage!
