    Xbox One S not turning TV on or off


    I recently bought an Xbox One S.

    Having previously set up my Nintendo Switch to automatically turn on my TV when turned on, I know how great CEC is, so naturally I decided to look at how to do the same with the Xbox.

    I have checked my TV settings and confirmed that CEC is on. (As well as my Switch is still working just fine to control my TV, so I know it's not a problem with my TV.)

    I have connected the Xbox correctly, set up the TV in the settings, as well as set "turn on Xbox" to send "turn on" signal and "turn off Xbox" to send "turn off" signal.

    I've also tested with the settings set to "toggle" and it also does not work.

    The Xbox can control my TV in other ways (sound, menu, etc) without a problem.

    I've checked the instructions in other threads and followed them. Including a hard reset of my console.

    Despite all of this, my Xbox is still unable to turn on or off my TV.

    Please help. Is this a known error?

    :)

    to turn the tv on and off uses the ir blaster function, if that has stopped working then you may need to retrain it, all the xbox's in my house still work fine with turning the tv on and off viaa the IR blaster.

    Xbox does not support CEC, the xbox does not have the ability to change source on the tv, but if the tv is not turning on when the console comes on you may need to retrain the IR blaster function again.

    I have had the same issues since an update was pushed. I sent a error log to Microsoft through the xbox. I have a 2016 vizio 4k tv with cec. I have tried cec off, on in the tv settings and nothing worked. Tried auto detecting after clearing the tv in the
    xbox settings and chose toggle that did not work. I also tried to add the tv manually and the remote codes manually, nothing is working. Short of resetting the xbox , which i don't want to do i feel that is a software issue. I reset the tv settings to factory
    just to see if that helped and that did not make a difference other than i now have to sign back into all my streaming apps.....
