Known Issues

We understand some issues have been listed in previous Xbox Insider Release Notes. These items aren’t being ignored, but it will take Xbox engineers more time to find a solution.

We’re still tracking these known issues:

Guide

• We are investigating reports of the audio mixer being unable to adjust chat/game audio levels.

HDMI

• Users may see that some 4K capabilities are not enabled/available when console is powered on from standby even though they are supported. This can result in HDCP errors trying to play some streaming content in apps.
  • Workaround: Navigate to Settings>General>TV Details and change from 4K to another resolution and then back to 4K.

Home

• Some users have reported that the icon for a disc-based title is not appearing on the dashboard.

My Games & Apps

• Titles in collection may incorrectly appear with a “trial” tag.
• Users have reported that My Games & Apps is closing unexpectedly when trying to view “Shrinkable Games”.

OneGuide

• Live TV listings for OneGuide on Xbox One have been discontinued. You can continue to use OneGuide to view your connected HDMI devices or USB TV tuner.

Profile Color

• Sometimes users may encounter the incorrect Profile color when powering on the console.
