I'll have to check this out tonight. I already use the "PC -> Xbox" video stream option a good amount.

Steam is def gonna be on xbox then right?
MIcrosoft aint playing anymore. Phil spencer put xbox in the training room since the disastrous xbox one announcement.

I wonder if it will work better than Steam Link. Been a while since Ive used it, but it was pretty good.
Awesome, another step forwards for Microsoft. In the past I've been messing around trying to stream this stuff back and forth, but obviously it wasn't an ideal experience due to the latency of doing it through multiple platforms. Awesome thing this is getting native support now, and it's just the next step in Microsoft's plan in having your content regardless of what platform you're on. Play Anywhere, xCloud, crossplay, now this... great stuff.

I hope it's good but "miracast" is giving me ptsd. Always fucked up when I've used it in the past.

I already made a thread about Xbox Live Gold becoming a strange proposition, and now you can actually play the games without Gold on an Xbox console as long as you have a PC...
So people could stream the remote play app from Windows to play PlayStation games on Xbox? Or is it only for certain applications?
So does that mean I can play PS4 games on the Xbox?
1. Use remote app to stream PS4 game to PC.
2. Stream PC to Xbox.
3. ???
4. Profit!
Edit: beaten by a min :(.

Yes. It seems this works similar as using a Steam Link. Great feature imo!
Cool I wonder if they will allow this without the need for a PC one day, course we would probably have to pay for them to keep Cloud severs running.
I can already do that on my Nvidia Shield with my Steam/Uplay/Blizzard Library and no P.C, but to be able to do the same on a Xbox would be awesome, one less box needed.

I don't really see a use case for it myself but it's a neat idea. I'd just plug my computer into the TV if I wanted to but I've never felt the need to. It says it's ideal for streaming video content rather than gaming but I'd imagine most of the video content people are consuming are through native apps (Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Amazon, Youtube, Twitch and so on). The latency could be concerning for gaming. People don't even like the latency of many TVs to begin with. Still, I'm interested to see where they go with these initiatives. Nice to see moves being made.
Don't get me wrong the more options the better, but what is exactly is the point of this? If I already have a PC and a TV, why do I need to stream them from my xbox? I could just plug in to my TV and use a controller (what I currently do) or use a steam link. Unless I am missing something. Either way, glad Microsoft is making moves in the PC market finally.
Great, reminds me my 2012 Apple TV, that I used wirelessly on a TV for mirroring and dual-screening in Final Fut Pro.
It should be perfectly fine for local gaming, and maybe not that long before a hack to use the entire Windows desktop.

UWP RDP app? Let hem first fix that i can play Xbox One games streaming outside my house, like the PS4 can worldwide.
Steam Link is discontinued. You could have Xbox in Living Room and PC in your office and stream.
wait does this let me play any game in my steam library on an xbox?
might be interested in getting an xbox after all this stuff microsoft is doing...
