    Xbox Media Remote - Xbox button functionality


    I’m enrolled in the Xbox Insider console update preview program and have noticed a change to functionality of the Xbox button on the Media Remote.

    Until the most recent update preview, press and hold of the Xbox button would give the power off option. Now, pressing this button only brings up the side blade - no power off option.

    Is this intentional, or a bug?

    :)

    Audio CD Player & Media Remote

    I have the same issue. Please add Xbox one media remote functionality to the CD player app. I hate having to go to Xbox one controller for this basic functionality. CD player is a media component...thanks

    XBOX Media Remote

    I bought a XBOX media remote.

    1. How can I pair my TV with my media remote?

    2. Why doesn't my XBOX media remote turn the system off after three seconds of pressing the XBOX button?

    Xbox Media Remote - Xbox button functionality

    Hi there,

    I just tried the remote on my console (alpha build) and it brings up the option to turn off the console.

    Question - have you changed the batteries in the remote lately? When I had the issue like you described, someone else in the preview mentioned to try fresh batteries. I changed the batteries and it all started working correctly.

    Xbox One Media Remote Issues

    Still no luck Mister Cizl :( I have noticed however that it isn't only the Xbox guide button that won't activate as a hold. All the buttons don't function as a hold feature, even the volume buttons. It senses the first push then the backlight on the media
    remote shuts off and the hold function, on any button pressed, does not work.

    Xbox 360 S remote

    [quote user="iRaydawg"]

    Hey guys, I see that some are trying to get the remote to change channels on your tv. Well the media remote only controls the tvs functions of power on/off, volume up/down, mute and TV input.

    [/quote]

    Then why bother putting number buttons and a channel up/down button on the remote? I'm disappointed that I have to use two remotes for my TV/Xbox.

    @Turvey, which remote did you purchase that works on both your TV/Xbox? I have a Philips/White Console.
