For example, my TV stand has shelves designed for more traditional TV and console-sized boxes, meaning my Xbox Series X doesn't in the TV stand in either horizontal or vertical orientations. The shape of the console can be troublesome depending on your TV stand.
But none of that matters when you're just trying to watch a movie. Starting with the external chassis of the Xbox Series X, it's an "unusual" shape for a TV box, and that's because it's designed for optimal heat exhaustion, since it's a super-powerful box designed to drive 4K gaming at a smooth 60 frames-per-second (FPS) at launch. This review is not about the games, this is about the Xbox Series X as a replacement for the TV setup that Xbox One had.

I know there are people out there who bought in to Microsoft's original vision for the Xbox One, and are looking at the Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S and wondering whether they can upgrade without losing the "all-in-one" aspect of the box in their living. Microsoft has been clear from the beginning this new generation of consoles is all about the games, and everything else it can do come second. The new consoles also don't support Kinect, meaning you no longer have the ability to use on-console voice commands, and there's no longer a built-in IR blaster for things like TV control. Microsoft was clearly done with its all-inclusive vision for the console by removing the HDMI-in port and the ability to use the console as a TV box. You'll now have the option to use media folders and files on your XBOX 360.To the small group of people who did make the Xbox One the center of their living room, the announcement of the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S was somewhat of a disappointment, which was the opposite of the mainstream's response to the consoles. Enter the set up key you have received earlier. If not, you can open Media Center on your computer and a prompt will ask to allow "Media Center Extender" to connect your computer to the XBOX 360. Depending on your OS, a small icon will automatically show up on the bottom right hand corner saying "Media Center Extender".

You will be given a code to enter on your computer.
In that menu, you will find "Windows Media Center". If you have updated your XBOX 360, you will want to go to "My XBOX", "System Settings", and select "Computers". On an XBOX 360 without the recent update, find the "Media" tab and select "Windows Media Center". (If not, it can be downloaded from Microsoft) A wired network is preferred for the best connection, although a wireless network could work as well. On certain Windows 7 or Vista machines, Media Center is already included.
