This gif seems to slow down the amount of time i takes for the snap-sidebar to appear, almost twice as long actually than in the video.
It's sstill choppy but doesn't take that long to load.
Yeah, it's 5 fps choppy.

Noticed this the day the video came out
I'am sure it will be as smooth as butter come release.
I dont know why anyone would think otherwise.
And?
However, the exchange:
"I don't know the channel, what can I do?"
"Channel 13!"
What?
so fucking what?
a demo of a product that isnt anywhere near final, not working as snappy, stagged demo during presentation to demonstrate how it will work when all the kinks are worked out. sue them.
using a gif to prove a point, seriously gtfo.
You're making a lot of assumptions to make the Xbox One have a viable place to enhance cable boxes.
That is no guarantee.
It's still a little embarrassing, and it's probably not smart to allow video like that out to your target audience, us, who they must know will pick it apart and come to unfavourable conclusions, whether well-founded or not.
and what is your agenda exactly?
Yes there is no guarantee the OS will improve but if you look at the history of first announced OS's/GAMES/CONSOLES it would be illogical to think it wont improve.
The Xbox One is going to be in a position to integrate with more consumers who have satellite/cable than the Comcast X1 will. That's a safe bet.
It's shitty as hell, but it'll be cleaned up by launch almost certainly.

That GIF is deceptive. When she says "go home" it goes to the Bing search screen off camera. The perceived delay is from her issuing another vocal command that's visually off camera.
C'mon now, Microsoft doesn't fake stuff at presentations.
I feel bad for this woman. She looks like her soul has been sucked out after wasting so much time working on something so pointless.
Yes. I'm not really arguing the X1 is going to take down the Xbox One. (The name similarity is pretty funny) What I'm saying is that we should expect cable boxes in a couple of years to have this as a normal feature. When that happens, the Xbox One loses what makes it special.
Yeah that Wii U launch was great!

Your receiver is essentially a centralized box that you tunnel everything through to utilize for multiple purposes. Why is it okay there, but suddenly with the Xbox One, nobody would ever want that?
The woman in the video clearly states that its abvery early build. Calm down people.
The wiiu is the only console/OS/game in history?
that settles it then
its proof the x1's OS will be very slow because the WiiU's was.

I don't know about most people but people I know, including myself, who have receivers do because we demand extremely high quality video and audio. We drop thousands on top of the line receivers because they are dedicated devices for handing that. There is no way in hell a <$400 device that plays games as its main function will be anywhere close to even the worst receivers on the market. That is why.
Are we allowed to critique ANYTHING on the Xbone, then?
Every time something is revealed that's negative about it (EVERYTHING), the response is "wait until it comes out, it'll be fine then". That's 5 months away. And I doubt much will change.
It loses what makes it special only if it doesn't eventually add anything new. Why do you think they want more original programming on One like that Halo series? So that you turn on your xbox right after the TV. You assume that theyll just launch the console and sit on their ass for 7 years. If 360 is any indication, itll be completely different in that time.
"Yes.. it really is that fast!"Logic and reason do not belong here. This is an XO thread. It could have had "THIS SOFTWARE IS AN EARLY BUILD" in huge white letters over the screen through the whole time and it would still be "Fuck Microsoft"
Ya, it is pretty funny that it's called the X1. I already addressed what you're saying. I'll say it again.
How often do people swap out cable boxes though? How often is it free? How likely is it that every service is going to do it and all 100 million of those people are going to get new boxes?
It doesn't matter if those features become normal on newer boxes, you still have the issues above about distribution of it. People are much more unlikely to upgrade their cable box than they are to buy a game system and take advantage of a feature gained by it. The TV functionality is a perk, not something anyone is going to buy an Xbox 360 exclusively for.
Most recent launch AND you didn't say "Well, if you ignore the Wii U" lol
I would expect MS to smooth out the OS by launch. Not a concern to me at this point.
Look, I've got a high end setup for the reasons you outlined. My point is, the device is used to centralize functionality to streamline the setup. I funnel everything through the receiver because I don't want to have to change inputs on the receiver and the TV separately. It streamlines that connectivity. I don't expect the Xbox One to replace a receiver. I do expect it to streamline the setup with better integration.
I don't have high expectations from their TV programming creators.
I loved the leading question:
"What if I want to watch Monday Night Football and don't know what channel ESPN is on?"
Really?
