Is it possible to have one keyboard connected to pc and Xbox Series X and then have an option to maybe button press via a usb hub that as buttons to change to playing on pc or xbox when gaming etc? just curious if its possible on what i might need as atm i have 2 keyboards on my desk :)
 
I use a Aten US224 for similar but no idea as to compatibility with the Xbox. There are also similar devices by brands like Ugreen, etc. some of the generic brand versions are trash though.
 
Logitech allow more than one device on some of their keyboards.

USB dongle into my PC as input 1 and then BT to my iPad as input 2, then so just change the output device on the KB itself.

Pretty seamless so far

Except this is unlikely to work with an Xbox series X since it's very restrictive on what you can and can't pair with it via BT.
 
yeah thats why was hoping for usb and not wifi etc, as i do have a keyboard and mouse that im using on my xbox atm its just have to have 2 keyboards and mice on my desk hehe :(
