I just tried the xcloud service directly from my series s and it worked absolutely flawless.

Now I am even more confused than before.

Why can I play cloud games directly from my Xbox in an astounding quality but it is not possible to remote play from Xbox to pc/ipad.

But what confuses me even more is that it works perfectly with ps remote play.

Just tested steam remote play from the PC to the iPad and that also worked wonderfully.

Maybe it's an general problem with the series s/x consoles?

Hi,

If you don't know, better don't answer.

Supported device Xbox One S/X for remote play on PC.

Series X/S not available in Beta app.

Xbox Series X and S are out of luck for now.

Xbox series S and X have some (hopefully known) bug that causes this.

My use case for remote is 80% local and 20% remote.

I have a PS5 that works extremely well for this.

My LAN is 1000/1000 wired to the consoles and 866/866 wireless to the client (tested on iPad, Samsung s7+ tab, windows PC)

Internet is gigabit fiber and usually sits between 700-900 mbps up/down

I got a series S a short while ago and faced the same issue on LAN.. android and iPad were very low resolution and blocky (probably 800X600)

Windows client was a little better . Perhaps 1366x768.

On the bright side , Lag was excellent with minimal latency between controller input and action.

Assuming this to be an issue with the weaker hardware on series S, I got a series X but same problem.

Internet test on the console shows 800-900 down, 500-600 up but latency is marked in yellow (probably because I am in India and I think the closest server is in Singapore).

None of this should have had any impact on LAN remote play - but I suspect even LAN play is routed via the Internet
