Xbox One 'New Experience' Update

is the volume back up and running as well.

For me the picture quality was fixed (and slightly improved at that) at the expense of volume crapping out.

What was your issue with the volume and i'll check? I run my sound through speakers out of the TV.

After i posted my post, i got another massive update (around 400MB) last night (18:00 GMT) which seems to have polished the update some more. So far not found a single issue (although not used a huge amount) and it seems a lot smoother.

Whenever my tv sound goes quiet to fix it i hard rreboot the tv box not just turn it off and on again.

They're pretty much just fixing bugs and so on now, I think they have the final build and are just patching it.  Do you guys notice if the version number changes with each update this week?

It's been incrementing by .00001, yes.

Sounds good, so it looks like the build/version you have now is pretty much final and is only getting bug fixed/patched till the final deadline, hell, I bet the people in the preview will get yet another final update on the 12th along with everyone else and not have it sooner already like in the past.

Picture use to be a pinch grainy (has been more than fixed) but about 2-3 updates back, the sound broke when watching tv through the Xbox One.  Picture looks amazing nothing comes out of the tv speakers or my sound bar.

I have yet to give it a try since the latest build (which arrived within the past few days.) due to being crazy at work.

I was pushed the update last night, build 10585.1001.  I haven't noticed any issues, the side menu could load faster though, there's a bit of a delay for me after I double tap the xbox button on my controller or hit left at the home screen.

Hmm?  I thought 10586 was just pushed.

Guess not?  That's what mine says, maybe not everyone is on the newest one yet?  I can double check to make sure but that's what I saw.

*edit*

Yup, it was 10585.1001, but the update console button is live and it's grabbing another update right now, 380MB in size, give or take.  Odd it didn't update itself overnight, maybe there's a setting I have to check, or maybe it would've done it tonight instead.

It actually hasn't seemed to auotupdate for me in a bit.  Either that's going really slowly or all the builds coming down the pipe are throwing it off.

I turned the instant on to energy saving not too long after noticing, since I'd rather it wasn't doing anything overnight if I'm trying to sleep.

Well, after the 380MB update, i'm now on build 10586.1001.  I'm guessing this is final, or near final already.    One thing I've noticed performance wise, right after a bootup once you're on the home screen if you hit left to bring up the guide it can take a bit of time to come up.   This could just be natural since the system just started up and isn't quite finished loading things in the background though, same as desktop windows for example, you boot into the desktop and see it quick but it's still working in the background loading things up.

I haven't messed with anything else really, don't use many apps, I do like it though, it's way faster than the old one.  Now they just need to upgrade a few other things, like the My apps and games part, that's still using the old version and needs an update IMO.  Heck, why stop having it as an app and just make it another tab on the home screen for example?  It could be between the community and store tabs, so you can see all your installed apps and games and not have to jump into an app.

Just had 10586.1001 pushed that is the 3rd update in less than a week, so i expect more.

At last this latest update has fixed my MKV stuttering issue at the start of trying to play one!!! I have been moaning about this since the first release! MTU is now reported as 1480 too.

Need to find a proper change log now, but i am happy.

No doubt 10586 is final, just need to see if .1001 is as well or if we're in for a 1002 etc.

All my problems are fix now, the only thing i think needs improvement that i can see is accessing the left settings menu which you said is sluggish.

[SnoopZ]

Anyone know what improvements or big fixes we get from updating the controllers firmware?

I don't know either, I've done it once only and haven't noticed anything drastic having changed.

Just updated both my controllers again, will try and find some info on the interwebs!

Ooh...system error on this last update.  I feel special.

One problem I've had so far it's that the background image I set vanishes after I turn off my console, not a full power down, and turn it on again. Even when I set a new image in the settings it doesn't show up. Only way I can fix it and get my background back is to bring up the guide and pick the restart option.

Just installed yet another update and this has fixed that issue, no idea what else has changed at this time though.

What version are you on now and how big was the newest update?

From memory the update was around 346meg and i am on version 10.0.10586.1002.

Nice, I'll run a update once I get back home and see how it runs, wonder if they've improved the opening speed of the guide now or will soon?  Right after you first start up and hit the home screen if you press left next it can take a good bit of time for the guide to come up.

The guide opening is still slow, i hope they make it snappy soon.

Another thing that annoys me is when at the guide and the TV is stilll playing in the box they reduce the volume, i wish there was an option to not do this.
