Stream Configuration
The streaming configuration controls various aspects of the stream such as the resolution or bitrate. The streaming configuration for direct connect can be modified via the Streaming Configuration dropdown menu which contains a couple base configurations.The settings here can also be controlled through the command line. Please see Manage game streaming (xbgamestream.exe) for more information.
Direct Connect
The configuration options in the Direct Connect section control whether or not the development console is actively listening for local (IP address based) game streaming connection requests. Because this connection type allows anyone that knows the console’s IP address to connect, as a security consideration it is necessary to put the console in ‘listening’ mode each time the console reboots to use this feature.The Web Content Test Application (CTA) overview cannot connect directly via IP address due to browser security policy.
Remote Connect
The configuration options in the Remote Connect section control whether or not each user on the development console can be used for remote game streaming connections. These connections require the same user to be signed into the Web Content Test Application (CTA) overview and that the console be connected to the internet. This feature is the developer equivalent of configuring a retail console for remote play.Overrides
Overrides can be viewed and configured in the Streaming tab using the Stream Configuration Overrides panel in the bottom right (or by the xbgamestream tool). For more information on overrides check out Manage game streaming (xbgamestream.exe) and Setting up your XBOX Development Kit for streaming for more information.
