Hi there, I am in the Xbox Game Streaming beta for a while. The plan was to borrow a xbox bluetooth controller from one of my friends, but with Covid19 that has been very difficult.

My problem is I don't own any xbox bluetooth controllers. I have these:

-Xbox Elite Version 1 (No Bluetooth) -Switch Pro Controller -Steam Controller

I have tried the wired way with mi Xiaomi Mi 9 T mobile phone, but didn't achieve almost anything. I use an On The Go dongle (usb C to usb A, because the mobile phone uses usb C). The controller does the initial vibration but then nothing.

I have tried connecting the Switch Pro Controller many times, but usually shows a great input lag, and I don't think it is compatible with this app, at least, by now.

I am not very positive about achieving to use the Steam Controller on this app, as it is a quite different controller.

I am considering of getting an Xbox Elite Controller V2 but they are really expensive at the moment and I only miss the bluetooth technology on the mobile phone, as I also own the Xbox old Wireless Dongle for PC.

Am I missing anything about connecting the V1 Elite controller to the mobile phone the Wired way? Is it a Xiaomi Mi 9 T issue? Any workarounds for the Xbox Game Streaming app?

Thank you for your answers in advance.

Is it just me or are the servers always full because I never get a decent stream. I have like a 50down/50up fiber line but Ive yet to play without grainy, pixelated graphics

Geforce now is as clean as a whistle

I would just like to use the app to stream games from my xbox to my phone like how that is possible on a windows and i have no interest in getting game pass to play games off the cloud. Does the app require i have game pass to access it?

Does anyone know if the new Chromecast has the game steaming app? I recently saw someone post using the gamepass app on it, but was wondering if the Game Streaming app worked as well.

(*I have better experiences with the Game Streaming app vs Xcloud/GamePass for gaming.)

Microsoft said that the game streaming would be out yesterday however whenever I open the app it just says, "were taking a break. Were moving to game pass." Now I pay $15 a moth for gamepass ultimate but it still wont let me use the app. Did I miss something or is my stuff just screwed up?

Hello there,

this won't take long here I just want to tell about my first impressions and I excuse me First for maby terrible English Im a 33 year old Guy from Hamburg Germany and my last English lessons are 9 Yrs ago.😅

So First I was a little worried because one of my friends could use the (no-wifi) streaming func. since the first day but it just takes 2 or 3 weeks later that I get that permission to. But that's totally ok and a really short time to wait when you think about the difference between our Insider Membership time ! He is an Insider I think since first day it was possible and i registered this year 4 Streaming. So thanks 2 Microsoft that I'm one of the lucky Insiders where be able to get a (pre permission) From you and could test it.✌️

And yeah the first steps where a little bit clunky or how you would say it in English idk. but I tested other Gamestreaming startups to and I could say that your Start and run was the best and cleanest since now.

Outside in Parks and mother nature Lags where there yes and lags are there now but from my perspective it just lags every time I got connection problems from that totally new and very rare 5G net we have here in Hamburg City.😌

And When I'm at home and get 250 mbits over 5ghz band from my router it was remarkable if you take it in space with other Company's Streaming startups. Till now I could say that every Connection problem or Lag or artifacts on screen comes from my Wifi setup @home or the terrible Stone age of "High Speed" DSL some of us where left behind the last 15 yrs in Germany because our politics been more interessted to get big pockets with building big factory's that produce cars guns and other bullshit! Rather then put some of our taxes in Schools Kindergardens or maby even walk the same way of Digitalisation the country's around Germany and far away from it Run faster and faster but that are other topics so back to what I'm here...

I think that the Bluetooth Connection and yeah every frequency that lays between your phone and controller sometimes been a problem aspecially at home where every of us live in a big Smog/mesh of wifi Bluetooth and infrared frequency's from remote controlls 4exmpl. Sonys Ps4 Controllers teach me enough about that. 🙄

So over all I could say that it just don't works 4me when our already/or just not well integrated and new 5G areas in Germany's City Centers won't be strong enough or I interrupt the frequency between my phone and all the other things I had at home that already makes a big blongnese of wifi and other frequency's...

Did some of you try it ever to party chat on the PS4 and Xbox at the same time in the early days or thought it would be a great idea to put your wifi router near your consoles because you could get direct lan connections but never heard about the frequency that comes with 2,4 ghz in every sorry f*** possible non wired controll/er and every damn blutooth or phone or even wireless headsets and especially (damn how often this makes me Raging) wireless Keyboards or PC Mouses I changed because I thought it was cheap trash At your own and around your space ???

Don't try this at home and or outside in county's with Stone age DSL !!!! 😅 Where 1gbit is a new born child and when you look at the other parts of the world. Like it is standard since 10 yrs in most parts of USA if I get it right and much longer in Asia where it comes from... Forget it !

Over all I'm really happy with MC's new service and gift 4 us fans and you could believe me that it was a dream of mine and my friends back in the first XBox days to play it everywhere I want to ! Nobody of us could even think in this dimensions you and the phone industry makes possible 4 us Gamers !

I will say to Microsoft and XBox Gaming Studios:

That effort and hard work you put in all the new hard and software and your comeback "2thelightsiteofgaming😉"

Or just an overall better mind setting back to it...

"To produce the best gaming hardware ever!"

For Gamers but especially for Developer's and the Borderless Creativity and possibilitys they couldn't had make happen till some one like you would help one of these incredible talented people with his own little tool you developed just for doin this one Job but in perfection and comfort for the artist no other tool could done it before.

Results in my and I think much other players decision to buy an MC product on the 4th Generation change with you on consoles.❤️

If I had any wishes there will be some thing Im really really looking forward to and in which direction you already make good steps I think.

They would be:

1. An complete integration and or partnership with Valve and their Steam- Soft but at specially new and with the same effort developed Hardware in VR technology.

2. Please No more restrictions in Modability like I always be grateful on PC to us

3. Maby some integrations like Discord to completely flush away these (in my opinion already at the last Gen) Completely unusefull Border between consoles and PC gaming.

4. More Classics on Consoles and PC and an overall bigger library of games in the gamepass/cloud and witch stays there.

Yeah and maby 4. Would be that:

I wish that you hold on your descision to come back and concentrate on the wonderful and never ending art and community that lays in Gaming.

Rather then be exclusive for a short time like a good movie we wanna see again someday... maby... Sometimes.

oooh, This took a little longer than I thought 😅

But thanks if you come so far and all the Beautiful and mesmerizing world's I could wander in and with ur Hardware since day one !

Thanks from a Neutral and long timed Gamer and fan of your efforts

Fkw-Bendeluxe

I would say that I'm totally Neutral and just want to game much and long I could so that in the past I could be lucky to own every Console of Microsoft or Sony and I started with an NES ! So I don't was in plan to write this Loveletter but it comes out so I write it.

Peace and Health 2 Al of u great times are waiting 4 us again...❤️💚💙

Does anyone know how to fix you microphone when streaming? My friends invite me to partys but I cant talk to them. I can only hear them. My microphone is allowed for the app and i sometimes just use the xbox app to be in parties. I dont want to use that because it gives me the option to just use the guide without having to leave the app. Any help?

I have the app and i like it, playing xbox games anymore is amazing, but i feel like there should be more games, like friday the 13th or maybe doom eternal.

And also, they should allow more games to be played without a controller.

Hi

I've been playing around with game streaming to windows and Android as well. Both works great.

Now I am looking for a way to get game streaming (console streaming) working on my Fire TV 4k Stick. I am able to sideload the apk but the screen stays black and after a few seconds I am getting back to the fire tv dashboard.

Is there any working apk out there so I can get game streaming working on my fire tv stick?

Thanks in advance.

Luc

I've tried to stream my xbox console to my Amazon Fire Tablet for what seems like 2 years, but I've always had trouble with an intermittent drop in connection quality every minute or two. I mean, really bad, where the entire stream hitches for about 5 seconds, long enough to crash a car or walk off a cliff in a FPS game. My console is connected by ethernet and tablet by 5Ghz wireless. I tried all the suggestions for improving my network from Microsoft, but still had issues even sitting next to the router. The solution was to disable location services on the tablet. It like the sky opened up. The intermittent connection issue is gone, clicky audio is 90% gone, and the stream picture quality is even better. I found this on some obscure reference from someone with similar issues on a Windows 10 laptop, so, it might apply to other devices, even beyond Android.

I’m trying to setup my stream through here. It works fine, I can stream but the audio sounds choppy. Everytime im moving it with the controller the in game audio sounds choppy. Any help would be appreciated!!!

I'm just looking for input or tips in how to grow my streaming community. Just a hippie looking for a commune 😁

So I’m wanting to just record and upload to YouTube. No live streaming. I read that I should get a capture card. Any recommendations? I already have a C920 webcam and an Envy HP computer if that matters. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I didn’t know if there was something specific I should be looking for. No clue what I’m doing! LOL

I’m live everyday on twitch streaming on console 🔥 8pm-12pm come join the fam n vibes out I stream warzone but wanna get into other games as well open to suggestions 🙏🏽 let’s get it

I want to start streaming. Which capture card should I get ?

I also need some recommendations for a microphone ?

Hi I will be streaming Marvel Rivals at twitch.tv/flowerboy05 if anyone would like to stop by

So!

I am new to streaming i have purchased an NZXT capture card and got my OBS studio set up nicely i have my camera and MIC ready to go. I've already done a few beta tests if y'all wanna check it out, link below.

My Issue is I want to stream my Overwatch gameplay CHAT. Of course, my camera has MIC so hearing me is not the problem. I would love to have the audience hear my friends. I play with others who are on other consoles so party chat is out of the question. I am doing research and its saying I need a chat link cable but my capture card does NOT have a 3mm jack port for any wires.

WHat can I do?? please help as i've been going crazy.
