Interference from XBOX 360 Kinect?

We recently got an XBOX 360 Kinect. Before that we had few problems with our FIOS TV Service. Now almost every time we use the XBOX 360 with Kinect we lose our TV Service. Generally, we get the channel unavailable error, on BOTH tv's, and we have to call the 800 number to get it to reset our ONT. Sometimes that works, other times I have to go down and unplug the ONT (I think that's what I unplug) and the battery backup.
The set up is that we have 2 set top boxes, the DVR and an HD receiver that can connect to the DVR. The xbox is connected to the same TV as the DVR and the xbox and kinect attachment are near the DVR. as mentioned, it's not just the DVR that is affected but both TV's. If the regular receiver relies on the DVR working, then I could understand how both would be impacted.
Any ideas what is going on? Could it be use of the xbox controller, the kinect attachment?

Xbox 360 kinect

Im looking to buy xbox 360 kinect and I was wondering if there are any controls as I see this system runs on you being the control,so can anyone tell me if there are any controls so if I want to to relax and play a game lying down will I be able to do this,thanks.

Hey mduncan,
I know it can be a tough decision on which hard drive size to go for with the Xbox 360, especially with such a gap in the range. If you think your child will mainly just be playing games off the disc, you could probably go for the 4GB version because you really only have to worry about game save space. You can also upgrade to a larger hard drive at some point but transferring data from your old one can be a bit of a task and requires a special cable to be done properly from what I understand.
Having said that though, there are a plethora of reasons you may want to play it safe and opt for the 250GB version. Things like downloadable content, game demos, themes, etc. all take up a hefty amount of hard drive space (some game demos can take up 2GB in themselves). That's not to mention any multimedia files your child may want to store on their system such as music, pictures, and videos, which add up fast in terms of GB. Personally, I find game demos to be an excellent way to try out a game before making the decision to buy it so that could even save you some money in the long run.
I hope that helps with the decision making process!

No signal from XBOX 360 when connected to a 65HT2U through HDMI

Good day peepz!
I tried to connect a XBOX 360 to my 65HT2U and it says no video signal
I already tried using other HDMI cables
and resetting the XBOX display settings by using Y and the right trigger
Still it shows no video signal
The weird thing is the XBOX works with my Samsung TV's HDMI ports and
other dervices can work on the three HDMI ports of my 65HT2U.
Is this a compatibility issue between the XBOX360 models and my Toshiba TV?

Hi,
Can you post back with the following.
1. The full Model No. and Product No. of the notebook ( from the service tag underneath your notebook ) - see Here for a further explanation.
2. The full version of the operating system you are using ( ie Windows 7 32bit ).
3. The full name of the display adapter.
Regards,

Keep getting disconnected from Xbox 360

Evening all
I signed up to BT Infinity around 2 months ago after having Virgin for 4-5 years. I eventually chose to leave Virgin after a month period where the Broadband was horrendously slow. I decided to go with BT Infinity as they seemed good for gaming. I play my Xbox 360 quite often and (other than the last month of my contract) never had any issues on Virgin.
The first 10 days with BT Infinity were brlliant, the Internet was quick and I didn't have any problems. Unfortunately, after 10 days I started to randomly get kicked from games, lose connection to my Xbox Live party, etc. After a lot of trouble shooting:
- Port forwarding
- Giving my Xbox a static address
- Changing my Wireless channel
- Disabling UPnP
- Wired connection to my Xbox
was still no closer to finding the resolution. Usually after getting disconnected I'll do a connection test and will get a moderate NAT setting. I do these tests randomly and I'm constantly changing from Open to Moderate. I can only assume this is the reason for my problem. I should also mention that this doesn't only happen on one game but all games.
After having no luck, I decided to do a hard reset and see if that fixed the problem. After doing this, I was able to play with no problems for another 5-6 days before it all started again. I've now reset my router about 5 times and the same thing keeps reoccuring.
I can only assume the router (HH3 Type A) is the issue as I never had any problems with Virgin. I've just got off the phone with BT support where they did a few checks and eventually came to conclusion that my broadband/router are showing no errors so it must simply be my Xbox (even though I told them about the previous 4-5 years of no problems). I did ask BT to send me out another router to see if that was the issue but they simply refused.
I'm at a bit of a loss what to do next, I'm hoping someone on the forums has experienced a similar issue and has found a fix.
Thanks in advance for any help suggested!
Dave

Thanks guys.
I've filled out one of the forms above so hopefully someone from BT will get back to me.
With regards to the DSL light bradhughes, did the light only flash when you got disconnected? Everytime I look at the Modem/Router the lights all appear to be fine. I wouldn't be able to tell if it's happening when I'm disconnected though as they're in a different room to the Xbox.

Skype and Xbox 360 kinect

Any plans on having Skype App for Xbox 360 with Kinect?

I'm extremely disappointed with this response. I've been a fan of windows for my entire life. I was even a microsoft developer for 12 years. However, Microsoft is dropping the ball and I'm finding it extremely difficult to continue my loyalty.
1. Windows 8 == failure (Vista all over)
2. Love the tablet but can't justify the cost (Bought Android which is equally as good for 1/2-1/3 the price)
3. Love the phone and xbox integration
4. Extremely pissed off that a multi billion dollar company can't answer a simple question and just leave everyone asking questions that go unanswered.
I may just end up buying sony and going android. I have no more loyalty and I have done nothing but stick up for you for years.

Can I programmatically control an xbox 360 console from a PC using a USB cable?

I have an application that may require LabVIEW, some software normally associated with LabVIEW or both...
I would like to be able to programmatically control an Xbox 360, via a PC, and through the use of a USB cable connecting both. I have setup a separate Xbox 360 console as a "dedicated server" for my gaming clan. I would like to be able to have the PC issue scripted commands according to a schedule, that will cause the console to power up, start the specific game (disk in the machine already), and then proceed through a number of Xbox 360 controller button actuations to cause the game to essentially be ready to play.
If possible, I would like to find software that I could install on my PC (currently run with a Windows XP SP2 OS, but I have access to many versions of Windows and also Linux and soon, Solaris Unix).
I have tried using various Infrared devices that connect to and are controlled by my PC, but none so far have allowed the infrared signals to work once the game is launched (apparently, only controller signals generated through a USB cable or through RF from a wireless Xbox 360 remote work once the game is launched - and that probably because the IR signals are meant to control the console as a media device).
I would appreciate any direction that you 'all could offer. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your replies everyone, and thanks to NI for this great forum!
The last solution appears to be pretty close to what I'd like to do. If I understand you Robert, I would attach a DAQ to my PC via USB and would control that device via software, then the DAQ connects to a digital output controlled relay (looks multiple wires, and screw-on connections) and then there would be separate wires connecting 'channels' (my term) from the relay to individual button wires inside of the gaming controller? The signals coming from the controller following this would therefore appear as normal.
If this is correct, could you suggest any specific devices for this? I see that NI makes several USB DAQ's includng the USB-6501, 6008, and 6009. I also have seen many digital output controlled relays available from different vendors. I could use some assistance with the finer points for choosing the correct ones to purchase.
In case it makes any difference although the controller has analog functions my requirements are for only the digital buttons only as I would simply be proceeding through the Console's menu (left, right, up, down, enter/select, etc.), launching the game, and then within the game continuing to choose among the game's menu items, ultimately according to a script. So, I don't see any need to be able to actuate either of the 'sticks' which are analog in nature.
Thanks!

Connecting directly from my modem to XBOX 360 Live Please Help me.

Please help me I keep getting the message on my Xbox live that I can connect but that I have moderate nat. You see I play Final Fantasy online using Xbox live and I keep getting disconnected in the game..every 10 minutes..exactly. It's really annoying. The problem has to be the NAT.
I connect directly from my modem to the Xbox 360. I have no router. My modem is a Westell 6100G that's what it says on the front. On the bottom of the modem it says: Model: G90-610015-20. My connection speed is 1 MB.
Please someone help me if I need to reconfigure the modem. I do know how to get into the modem reconfiguration web page but don't know what to do in there. Please help.

WRT160NL not allowing Xbox 360 to stream files from PC

I have just purchased a WRT160NL and have hooked it up and it will allow me to access the internet fine on my PC and also allow me to connect to xbox live fine on my xbox 360. When I try to stream media files from my PC from Zune though it will no longer work like it did with my previous version of Linksys router (BEFW11S4). I have followed several troubleshooting steps including trying to open several ports on my firewall but have had no success. When I try to connect to my PC with my xbox 360 I can see that it is communicating with the router fine but it is not allowing the xbox to in turn communicate with the computer. Anyone have any ideas on to what might be causing this issue?

Follow this link and change the settings on your Computer as well as on your XBOX360. Once you are done with the settings you should be able to play media files from your XBOX

Problem streaming from Windows Media Center to XBOX 360 with Airports?

Good evening,
I have been having an issue trying to stream windows media center from my windows 7 ultimate (64 bit if that helps) to my Xbox 360. My network setup is:
I have an airport extreme (G) that is plugged into my cable modem and my windows 7 machine. In my living room I have an airport express that extends my wireless signal through out the house but my xbox 360 is plugged into it via ethernet. I have a very fast internet connection that is stable but any transfer between my computer and xbox is very limited it seems. I was wonder if there is a way to get this to work better. When I lunch windows media center on the xbox it sees my pc and it shows the available files but when I try and move from one to the other nothing happens and eventually I get a can't connect error. Would I be better off not connecting via ethernet to the airport express and just buying a wireless adapter?
Thanks

You don't say how your devices are connected, whether through your Verizon router or some other way. If through, say, an Actiontec then you may be having bottleneck issues. I used to run all my devices through my Actiontec and got poor transfer speeds (it only handles 10/100). Moving everything on my network to a 10/100/1000 switch helped my transfer speeds to shoot right up ten fold. This way only the switch gets connected to my Actiontec and my network devices can still get out on the 'net if needed.
It's ok to try to reinvent the wheel, but just make sure it's round.
