So, why do we really need Xbox One streaming to the Windows 10 Xbox app? Suppose the Xbox One is seated in the living room and you just don’t feel like moving it. We also assume that Microsoft will have full, complete support for the mouse and keyboard combo by then (the Xbox One already supports keyboards). We assume this applies to games that are purchased in Windows Store. While streaming the Xbox One to the Windows 10 Xbox app is really cool, we understand that Microsoft is also looking into streaming PC games to the console. Ultimately, what we have here is a service Microsoft has needed for a long time. To take our screenshots, we hit Win + G, which brought up a little toolbar at the bottom of the screen that includes the screenshot function and the means to record video, aka “Record That.” If you don’t want to use the toolbar, there are keyboard shortcuts: Win + Alt + G for recording the last thirty seconds, Win + Alt + R for start/stopping recording, Win + Alt + PrtScr for taking a screenshot and Win + Alt + T for turning the timer on or off. Simply click “resume” after you’ve reopened the app. Keep in mind that if you click the desktop with a mouse while you’re streaming, the process will stop and the Xbox app will minimize to the taskbar. Regardless, you can navigate the Xbox One OS with ease. Again, we used a Rock Candy controller, which was connected to the Windows 10 PC even though Microsoft recommends a wired Xbox One controller. In our test, the Xbox One pumped the Home screen to the Xbox app by default. To get the party started, hit the Streaming link in the top-right corner. There’s also a virtual remote control for when the Xbox One is connected to a cable or satellite set-top box, a virtual controller (for tablets), an option to test the streaming, the streaming button itself, and options for disconnecting, forgetting the console, connecting automatically, and turning off the console. A successful connection will flash a notification on the Xbox One.Īs we reported in the hands-on, once the Xbox app is connected to the console, you’ll see controls for adjusting the console’s volume. Once the console is ready to play, simply hit “connect” on the right side of the “Connect to your Xbox One” window. If the console is turned off, you can remotely power up the device.
