Buenas,
now if! it’s official and we can talk about them. Windows 8 it is RTM, Surface also and of course, if you share your Microsoft Account from your Windows 8 and your XBox you can leverage the power of SmartGlass.
First, the first thing we have to search for it in the store and install it.
Once installed, if your Xbox 360 is connected you can share content between 2 devices. But before you must activate this feature in the XBox. To do this:
1 Go to the “settings” section
2 Enter the menu “system”
3. Select “Console configuration”
4. Select “Devices”
5 Active SmartGlass option
6 Done!
Now we can already launch XBox SmartGlass and see that the app takes a few seconds to connect to the console.
Once connected, the console will display a notification indicating that the app has been connected and we can already access the different elements of XBox SmartGlass from the menus of the application.
Now, to give you the impressive touch you most want to do is share a video from your computer to the console, to do this you must open xbox Video. Here you can select a video of those who are in the xbox channel (by loosening a few urakos € of course); or select the option “open or play any element” to select a video from your local disk.
In my case I select a family video shot with my camera
And then with the option to “play” the contents are passed automatically to the console.
At this moment we can control the playback of the video from our Windows 8 and also disconnect at any time of the Xbox 360.
It’s that simple!
However, if you read until here I wonder the amount of Gin that I have above to write a post of this kind… the good thing about this is genuine is “open” to a world of possibilities and that C# is one of them
