Always good to hear, I'm loving these monthly updates for the Xbox. I'm not seeing any downside lol. I just wish they would bring back the ability to hear game chat through both your speakers and through your headset. But great job Microsoft, keep the updates coming

[Gazondaily]

Yeah the speed of the interface definitely needs to be improved. Good news.

[Aussiebeachbabe]

Bring on those updates. Now for external Hdd support for next month.

The update does absolutely nothing to fix game recordings. I am seeing recordings not recording despite my HDD being empty of all old recorded gameplay. I have seen corrupted recordings that skip during playback, and random recording times from 1 second, to one minute! I even had a recording say, -1 minute and 27 seconds! I am in the beta preview program, and I already have informed Microsoft like six times about this, I was told they are looking into it. Numerous others are reporting the same issues along with error codes.

Um that's why it's called beta... they should find a better way to screen testers.

[SITH]

First off high-speed, this recording issue has been going on for a while. As in last year. It is not a recent issue. Second, the last update is almost a four days OUT of beta that will explain your disagrees. Run along now.

@SITH

Have you tried deleting and redownloading Upload Studio? I was having a problem where sound was muted in my recordings, but after I did that, it was fine. Maybe it will work for you.

[SITH]

No, I have not. I will definitely do that. Thanks. But I solved the sound not recording issue which I had also. I did it by pushing and holding the power button on the xbox one, then unplugging the power cable for one minute. But I will definitely delete upload and reinstall it.

[creatchee]

Cool! Hope it works!

[Revolt13]

Microsoft is on it when it comes to updates

[Tedakin]

I haven't had the recording problem. I have had the issue with notifications lagging or taking forever. Like in game I'd say Record That and the notification wouldn't pop up till way later.......

[PrinceOfAllSaiyans]

Off topic but I have a question. I'll be getting my XB1 this weekend and Ik the controller has a micro USB port at the top. Can I just play wired instead of buying batteries ? And do the rumble triggers work for any game ? Because I want to try them on Wolfenstein The New Order. Thanks.

[GodGinrai]

"Can I just play wired instead of buying batteries ?"

Yeah, you can. But longterm you should deffo get a play and charge kit ;)

[n4rc]

Yup.. Plugging it in turns it into a wired controller..

And no.. Rumble triggers need to be implemented by devs on a game by game basis.. No idea if wolfinstein is using them

[marlinfan10]

id recommend the play and charge kit, i get about 15-20 hrs of play time off a charge. but yes, you can just play wired the whole time if thats what you choose

[Volkama]

May update also seems to have removed my console's capacity to read any discs. That or it's a hardware problem.

Returns are such a chore :|

[incendy35]

Everything feels a bit snappier : ). Snapped apps definitely seem to load quicker, especially internet.

[Illusive_Man]

It is much, much faster now. Audio controls are as advertised. Thank you Microsoft.
