• If your console hasn’t downloaded and installed the update by 3:00 AM PDT 3/13/2018 (10:00AM GMT 3/13), you will be prompted to do so at that time.

DETAILS: OS version released: rs4_release_xbox_dev.180308-1900

Available: 6:00PM PDT 3/12 (1:00AM GMT 3/13)

FIXES:

• Audio Issues – Dolby Atmos

• We have resolved an issue with Dolby Atmos for Home Theater and certain AVR models that will result in random sound cut outs and the setting for Atmos will no longer revert to PCM.

• Plex App

In the Plex App we have mitigated the issue in which some users are experiencing buffering.

KNOWN ISSUES:

• Settings

When accessing the Language & location page in Settings, it may take a long time for the page to load.

• Pi-hole

Pi-hole users may encounter issues signing in, creating, or recovering accounts upon downloading the 1804 update. This is due to a new configuration file which is downloaded from a URL Pi-hole blocks by default. Workaround: Add clientconfig.passport.net to the Pi-hole allowed IP address list.

• Audio Issues

• We are aware that some Spatial Audio users will experience unexpected game volumes and are working on a fix.

• We are aware that the Mono output feature is not working as expected in latest builds. The team has identified a fix and is testing. Please turn off the feature if you are using an audio receiver with less than 7.1 audio channels.

• Some users have reported that HDMI in volume is lower for TV Input and some media apps. We are actively investigating. Workaround : Sit closer to the TV or Start Background Music and goto the Audio Settings and set the volume slider to 50% rather than 0% and the volume issue is fixed.

• Now TV

In the Now TV app some UI elements are disappearing during playback.

• Netflix

(1) The Netflix team are updating the app as it is crashing for some users. Workaround – Please check for an update for the Netflix app.

(2) Netflix on Monitor only works at 1080p and does not support 1440p – Netflix is aware of the issue. Workaround : If watching Netflix on a Monitor/LCD please set the display output to 1080p.

• System

We are investigating an issue in which some users are experiencing the console shutdown after you turn it on. Workaround – Simply turn the console back on.

• Vudu

We are investigating why some users are unable to play 4k content in the Vudu app.

• HDMI In Volume

Some users have reported that HDMI in volume is lower for TV Input and some media apps. We are actively investigating. Workaround : Sit closer to the TV or turn up the volume.

• Virtual Keyboard

The virtual keyboard disappears randomly when inputting text.

• HDR Issues

Some users are discovering that some games are not showing in HDR – Please file feedback when you encounter this to help in the investigation.

• Game Install Progress

We are aware of an issue in which the Game Progress status shows over 300%. Please note that this is a different scenario to the fix in this build referenced above in fixes.

• Spotify Search

Some users are discovering that the search function in Spotify is not working. Please file feedback when you encounter this to help in the investigation.

• Settings – Accessory App

Some users may experience a problem not being able to assign controller configurations in the Xbox Accessory app.

• Casting from the Xbox – Apps such as YouTube

Automatic discovery over WiFi is currently not working correctly. The YouTube app relies on this to make pairing seamless (Link with Wi-Fi). There is a known issue with uPnP and state separation that is being investigated. In the meantime, please use the second pairing method in the YouTube app. Launch the YouTube app then go to Setting  Link TV and Phone  Link with TV Code. Follow the directions on screen.
