    Xbox one not being read in hdmi inputs


    Today my xbox one froze. Now when i turn it on it is not being read as being connected in the hdmi port from the t.v.. I have tried 2 ports on 2 different t.v.s Also it will not turn off without being unplugged (but i have yet to be able to see what screen
    is actually loading)

    xbox one hdmi input question

    I haven't read where you can hook up your 360, but I know the cable box would require an HDMI input. And it only has 1 HDMI input.

    Linking xbox 360 to xbox one

    This may have been discussed here before, but I am new to the board and don't see any prior discussions.

    I found an article in Geek Wire that shows how to link the xbox 360 to the xbox one through the xbox one's HDMI input which is meant for the TV. This set up will allow you to play xbox 360 games through the xbox one. When you use the watch TV command the 360 plays through the xbox one's console, but this apparently sacrifices one of the xbox one's cool features... the ability to control your TV with the xbox one. Has anyone done this? Aside from being able to play the 360 games through the one's console are there other benefits? I can see the point of doing this if the TV only has one HDMI input, but with multiple HDMI inputs why not just connect the consoles independently to the TV and take advantage of all the features of the xbox one? Comments?

    In step 1, select I AM EXPERIENCING A STARTUP ISSUE and then BLACK SCREEN in step 2

    HDMI throughport for TVs with Game Mode

    Not sure I explained it clearly enough. My TV has 3 HDMI inputs, all of which can be configured for PC, Game Mode, TV etc etc. The Game Mode makes the XBOX input fill the screen and overall looks better than say in TV mode. So if the input from the XBOX
    One is set to Game Mode, then I switched the XBOX One to throughput the TV signal, then I would be watching the preset HDMI in Game Mode even though I was watching a TV/Tivo channel, if that makes sense.

    .

    So to recap

    .

    My TV has one HDMI port set to TV input and another one set to Game Mode input, and I simply change the input depending on wether it is a game I want to play or a TV channel to watch.

    .

    But if one HDMI input is being used by both XBOX One and a TV signal input, then the TV's HDMI port setting will only default to the one I set it to in the first place

    .

    So it is the TV that determines what display I will get regardless of what signal the XBOX One sends.

    .

    If that doesn't confuse you then nothing will, already getting a headache just re-reading it

    Connecting an xbox to a laptop screen

    This would be something locked to the hardware of the HDMI port. It's locked to the one direction of being an output instead of an input.

    Pioneer vsx-1021-k question

    This is how my setup goes. I have the HDMI from my cable box going to the HDMI input on the Xbox one. Then I have the HDMI output from the Xbox one going to the HDMI game input on my receiver. Then I have the HDMI output from the receiverrunning the TV.

    The only thing I can think of is make sure the receiver is set to the correct input.

    Dish Network Parental Passcode

    If the DVR software is prompting you to input a passcode, this can only be done with the DVR remote, as the DVR is the actual device asking you for a parental passcode (not the Xbox).

    The Xbox One only simply shows what's being sent to the HDMI-input -- the Xbox has no actual control over the connected HDMI device.

    There is no way to use the DVR user interface with the Xbox One controller, if that's what you're asking. Just stick with the DVR remote!
