DEVICES: Xbox One

Control Types

Xbox One can only be controlled through IR commands. If you're having trouble controlling the Xbox One with Control Center, see this article for more information about IR troubleshooting.

 

Latency
Please Note: When you connect a game console, an additional 30 ms of video latency is introduced as video data passes through Control Center to ensure reliable control and easy set up. While this likely will not affect casual gaming, it may not be acceptable for all competitive gamers, particularly if your TV is handling additional processing while you are playing games. If you do plan to connect a game console to your Control Center, we recommend turning off any video processing on your TV for a better experience.

 

Auto Switching

Control Center can detect the follow activities on Xbox:

  • Power on
  • Xbox One IR Remote operation

If Auto Switching for Xbox One is enabled and any of these activities happen, then Control Center will turn on and switch sources to Xbox One automatically.

Note: In order for auto switching to work with XBOX ONE
"Power mode" must be set to "Energy-savings" (not "instant-on") on the Xbox?
[Power & Startup -> Power mode & Startup].
 
 
 
In addition, if the Xbox powers back on within 3 minutes or so of powering off, Control Center won’t be able to automatically switch to the Xbox input. The Xbox takes around 3 minutes before it actually powers completely down. Xbox must power down completely for Control Center to detect that it powered back up.

 

Basic Controls

Xbox One keys are mapped to the following Control Center buttons:
