Xbox Preview build 1703.170305-1701 released with improvements

Xbox Preview build 1703.170305-1701 is now available for Alpha ring members. The latest build 15051.1001(rs2_release_xbox_1703.170305-1701) fixed an issue which could sometimes prevent newly installed games from launching.

However, there are known issues with this build. Check out the full list below.

Fixed in Xbox Preview build 1703.170305-1701:

Games & Apps

  • Fixed an issue which could sometimes prevent newly installed games from launching.

KNOWN ISSUES:

Controller

  • Upon resuming from connected standby, you may be prompted to update your controller firmware when no update is available.

Cortana

  • Cortana may take a long time to respond when activated while playing certain games.

Notifications

  • Some users may not receive certain types of notifications.

Game Clips

  • After capturing a game clip, the game clip fails to automatically post to the Activity Feed (if your profile is configured to do so).
    Workaround: Manually view game clips in Profile > Captures > Manage captures and post to the Activity Feed.

EA Access

  • The EA Access app may indicate you are not an EA Access subscriber when you are. This does not affect your ability to download or play games from the Vault or receive discounts on EA titles.

Screen Dimming

  • The screen may dim after a short amount of time while viewing videos in certain apps (Hulu Plus).

Settings – Ease of Access

  • When enabling the Mono output setting in Ease of Access – Audio, Settings becomes unresponsive, crashes, and fails to launch on subsequent attempts.
    Workaround: To launch Settings, perform a hard reset (hold down the button on the front of the console for five seconds until it fully powers down, then powers it back on).

Settings – Display & sound

  • The Audio output page is under construction and some of the new settings are not yet functional. New support is planned for Dolby Atmos for home theater, Dolby Atmos for headphones, and more in upcoming builds. An announcement will be made when these new features are ready to try out; enabling these settings now will have no effect.

Wireless Display

  • The Wireless Display app fails to launch and immediately crashes to Home.
