not entirely true. it currently downmixes to either stereo, or pipes DTS.
no dolby yet.. the fact that it says 'Beta' in the menu is shocking.

kotaku mentioned something about unchecking that box to make it work, or something like that.

edit: here it is
[..]currently only able to output surround sound if you dig into the menus and tick off a "Surround Sound (BETA)" option. Otherwise, it downmixes your cable's 5.1 surround to stereo.

However, the Xbox One is currently only able to output stereo and DTS Digital through its optical output.
wether or not that means that Dolby is supported through hdmi only, i don't know.

MS promises a huge dashupdate on launchday, and stresses that the current software is not final. lol?

While the system itself isn't region locked, meaning you can buy one and it'll work anywhere, the voice commands are.
So getting an XB1 in France forces you to either learn the commands in French or miss out. You can change everything to your desired language. Except for the voice commands.

I'm not getting a French XB1. But this will also mean my potential future XB1 will only accept Dutch voice commands. fuck that, I hate anything computer related in Dutch. Why don't they just ship the English voice software with all units with the option to download your own language, much like how phones do it?

jeez.

Hardware it seems, as changing your region for doesn't help

Christ I think your right, if I bought a french one and took it home I'd have to speak French to it.

Pretty fucking daft. I couldn't find anything solid but if it's linked to your live account (which I thought it would be) you could try setting up a yank account or migrating to an American account. It does look like a hardware lock though and sounds like MS making more work for themselves.

lol as if there weren't enough corporate logos on that box they had to ensure Qatar Airways was prominently displayed.

"The Xbox One...brought to you by Qatar Airways, EA and FIFA".

Someone kill me now, or at least aim a big fucking meteor at us.

tips and gotchas for the firsttime XB1 user

Do NOT tell your Xbox to go to another game unless you're sure you savedP

The console will not warn you that you haven't saved your progress. It will not ask if you're sure. It will just close the game down on you and load the next one
lol and/or ffs
