I finally decided to plug my sky cable into the xbox to see how well the TV/OneGuide works and tbh I'm pretty disappointed. The guide is ok and I can change channels with my voice/controller but the picture quality is quite poor and blurry/fuzzy, it's also seems to judder a lot.

So damn annoyed I'm not in the beta update program, this is a feature I've been waiting for.
IQ with sky hd seems fine (despite some interlace flickering on sports) to me but I'm using a powered splitter so I can view tv normally without the xbox having to be on too. Make sure the xbox input on your tv is setup the same as sky's original input. Have you enabled 50hz for tv in the xbox's settings?

What splitter did you use? Am interested in doing the same.
Hi have you enabled the 50hz tv mode ?
Very strange all i can say is that since they introduced the 50hz tv mode picture quality has been good here so not sure whats going on there
All the problems you mentioned are similar to what i experienced when tv could only be output @ 60hz from the xbox.
It's called a Cablesson® - 2 Way HDMI SPLITTER BOX 1x2 Port (1 x 2) (1 input 2 output).
Try the rainforest site. Cost £23.
I'll give that a go tomorrow. Cheers.
the one guide for sky is next to useless apart from favourite channels, without any categories its thousands of channels including radio and no easy way to navigate.
It works fine for me but its a starting point not what it needs to be.

Still sitting on the fence about buying a One. The only game we would really play is Dead Rising 3. That's not enough to justify the cost of a console tbh. When Halo / Gears of War come along, that may the thing that proves to tempting
Hoping that the release of those games coincide with a slimmer console. I have no room in our setup to put the fat one

You'd think you'd be buying a game for something original, not yet another sequel

Not sure what that is meant to mean, but in terms of franchises. I love Dead Rising, Halo and Gears of War. I hope they make plenty more games yet. If the Xone is the only place to get them, I will pick one up at some point..
I recently hooked up my Virgin Tivo to the Xbox One again with 50hz mode enabled but everything looks like it's going too fast, it looks too smooth like the soap opera effect you see where everything moves at a weird pace, has anyone got any suggestions or recommendations? it's really weird and distracting
