So if i connect my series x through micro USB, to use the headset for my pc I would have to switch the micro USB right? There isnt another way to connect?

I was just following your steps when it said my update failed and when I reattempted my headset died so they at 0% while needing an update. So the headset is dead while needs an update at the same time idk what to do I’ve been at it for hours now

You go into much more detail than Astro's own setup video and don't skip the necessary step of updating the firmware like they for some reason do.. That, and you get right to the important content without blabbing on and on about crap nobody cares about like so many KZbin channels do. Excellent video bro! Thank you.

I just bought it. It sounds great and the base station works.. But what I’m wondering is normally when I log into a game on the top right corner of my tv it says Dolby vision and Dolby atmos. But when I log into a game with the headset on it only says Dolby vision. But it is set to Dolby in settings and on the base station. Am I missing something? 🙏🏻
