How do I connect an Xbox to a computer? (HDMI ONLY)
As a Windows-based device, the Xbox has a lot in common with a typical Windows PC. The Xbox is one of the best consoles for interacting with a Windows PC, with the ability to stream games, share media content, and more. If you want a seamless multimedia experience, combining the Xbox and a Windows PC makes sense.
As long as you have the correct network settings, connecting an Xbox to a PC is a simple process. You’ll need both devices on the same network, and if you want to stream content, an Ethernet connection is preferable. If you want to know how to connect your Xbox to a Windows PC, here’s what you’ll need to do.
The Xbox Console Companion app gives you complete control over your Xbox One console from your Windows PC. It lets you start up or shut down your Xbox, stream Xbox games to your PC over your local network connection, install or uninstall games, and chat with your Xbox gaming friends.
