Hi guys,

I'm hoping you can help guide me. I just got an Xbox One and I'm on the verge of purchasing the TV tuner. Thus I have an open HDMI in slot. I wanted to connected my Kodi PC via this, in order to control everything via the Xbox One. I did consider getting Plex but not supporting DTS was a dealbreaker.

The question is then, how do I control the Kodi part of the experience with the same controller as the Xbox One uses? Can I buy the Xbox One remote? Will that help.

Basically I'm looking for inspiration on how others are doing it. Are you just keeping things seperate?
Xbox One should have an IR blaster option to simulate a remote control, right? I imagine that could be used somehow with an IR receiver on the Kodi device.
