    Xbox won’t change channels through controller


    Recently set up One Guide on Xbox One and it loads all my channels fine and let’s me look at them on guide, but will not let me change channel with controller. Only the cable box remote. Any suggestions? PLEASE!

    Sceptre TV, Suddenlink cable box.

    :)

    Cant change the channel on xbox one, help please?

    So I have the xbox one without the Kinect and I bought an IR extender blaster cable thinking I would be able to change the channels on the one guide with that, I set it up and I still cant change the channel through the one guide on my controller even with
    the blaster plugged in. I entered my cable box and tv manually and I can see the picture through my xbox but I just cant change the channels through my controller, even tried it with smartglass on my surface and phone and still nothing, So am I missing something
    or what? Can you even change the channels with the controller?

    Thank you

    Channel Will Not Change

    I'm able to scroll through OneGuide channels, however, when selecting a channel using the 'A' button on the Xbox Controller, it takes me back to the same channel and won't change to the new channel.

    Xbox one TV

    It depends on how you're trying to change the channels. You can't use the remote to change the channels, since the Kinect is what receives the input to pass through the command for the TV, but you should be able to use the controller, and the Xbox smart
    glass app.

    Will Sky/BBC/Channel 4 or any UK Content be on XBox One and how integrated

    Well the xbox should still be able to control your TV and change channel, but I doubt the pass through picture in picture stuff will work as shown in the preview footage.

    Xbox tv function may be useless

    ... But you can tell it to do things... change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change channel, change
    channel, change channel, change channel.

    Now doesn't that make channel browsing fun ? That's if everybody in the room hadn't thrown a brick at you and told you to shut the f up and just use the remote control instead.

    XBOX 360 (PC) WIRELESS CONTROLLER SLOWING DOWN MY INTERNET?

    [quote user="PilotVenus89319"]

    i wonder if instead of changing a router channel it would be possible to change the controller wifi channel instead.

    [/quote]

    it's impossible.. xbox controllers not wifi devices.. they have radio on 2.4 Ghz.

    Hey xXBOXxOne - I got the HomeWorX HW-150PVR and it will not let me control it as a "set top" device. Which means that xbox guide won't work and I can't control channel up/ channel down through the xbox one. Did you encounter this as well.... It is cool,
    but I'm kind of displeased because I can't control it through the XBONE which was the whole point.
