Can someone with a receiver check to see if they enabled pass through mode?  I swore the other day I got home from work and my receiver was off but my TV was still getting the signal from the xbox (im at work and forgot to try it again before I left)

I'm a DISH customer, and I always use the TV app to watch TV and guide.  Would I get any benefit out of the Oneguide on Xbox One?  Does anyone use Dish or DirectTV, and use the oneguide instead?  What are your thoughts?

The only thing I found very useful was the ease of setting up favorite channels, I only watch a handful of channels to its nice to show favorites only and browse that way.  I had a similar feature with Fios and cablevision but this was very easy to do.

I have same number  as yours but not sure what your number in the brackets after that your mentioned number.

 

The warning is still up there.

 

Crap, forgot that :blushing: ...does it matter? Will post it later...it does say something about XB and FR, though i don't use French if that's what it stands for. Will post it later for your reference. I have the Xbox logo where the Kinect alert was, maybe it has to do with the fact that mine was already dead when the update arrived? So when the OS rebooted and the firmware updated it didn't even look for a Kinect. Yours i'm assuming you plug and unplug at will, it still works?

About the Fre part: Read the info here.

 

The number in the brackets is the date that they release the update/build.

 

The kinect is still plugged in my Xbox. If I unplug it, the warning notification shows on the screen where the Xbox Logo is at. That I don't like it, I want that off. And I want the kinect stay unplugged but I can't because the notification still shows up there.

 

I wish MS to hurry up and release the update for the 'Unplugged kinect' notification removal.

Thanks for the info, good to know it means free/bundled and not French :rofl:

Will post the bracketed numbers later, though i suspect ours are the same. My hunch tells me it's due to the state of our Kinects...maybe it's a glitch? It's annoying to have that alert on the screen, i know how you feel, but they did patch it. Possibly only for people that didn't have their Kinects active at the time of the update :s

Same.

 

Thanks.

 

Hopefully the next update will fix it.. Who knows.

 

Sure thing, and figured it would be the same. I'm telling you it's because my Kinect was already inactive at the time of the update, so somehow the firmware considers my console a bare version, with no bundled Kinect. Your sensor was active at the time of the update. This is the only explanation i can think of that makes sense to me, as the build is the same going on the numbers.

MS posted a little preview of what is coming for the July update:

Definitely more cool features coming next month. Its also the start of seeing features that had required voice commands now getting controller shortcuts (i.e. being able to snap the 'snap center' simply by double tapping the xbox logo)

    • Shocker! It would be crazy to be ready to introduce a "fold" phone but have no plans happening for a followup model.
    • XBOX is at the end of its generational life cycle and wasn't selling much anyway. They need to figure out the pricing for XBOX Helios. However, I'm not buying the DRAM shortage with AI preferring HBM. I think it's industry gouging.
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026: Best Dolby soundbar deals from Sony, Samsung, JBL, Polk, and more by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered the JBL BAR 800 which is a 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos/Vision soundbar. The unit is on sale for its lowest ever price of just $800 making it a solid offer. However, there are many more options to choose from and in this article, we have made a compilation of the best deals including from Sony, Polk, Yamaha, Denon, Samsung and more. Sony's BAR models are currently at their lowest prices which makes them solid offerings. The company's BRAVIA Theatre Bar lineup is designed to suit different home cinema needs. The Bar 5 is an entry-level 3.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, supporting Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, S-Force PRO Front Surround, and Vertical Surround Engine for immersive audio with clear dialogue. The Bar 6 upgrades to a 3.1.2-channel configuration by adding dedicated up-firing speakers for more convincing overhead Atmos effects while retaining the wireless subwoofer. At the premium end, the Bar 7, Bar 8, and flagship Bar 9 are single-soundbar solutions featuring Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, which creates phantom speakers for a wider surround field. Bar 7 includes nine speaker units, Bar 8 increases this to eleven, and Bar 9 offers thirteen speaker driver units promising the most expansive soundstage and acoustic performance.
