However, simply connecting the USB storage device to the Xbox gaming console  will not make the video play. In order to play the video inside of your USB  storage device, you need to firstly download and install the Media Player app  from Xbox&rsquo;s official app store. Only when you have the Media Player app  installed on your Xbox console, can you start playing the YouTube video in your  USB storage device. <\/p>\n<p>Another thing you should know is that, the  Xbox One supports USB 1, USB 2, and USB 3 drives, and the drive must be  formatted in FAT16, FAT32, exFAT, or NTFS. If you have a Windows PC, your USB  drive will work on your Xbox One as long as your Windows PC can read it. If you  have a Mac, be sure to format the drive as exFAT and not with a Mac-only file  system like HFS+. If your USB storage device meets the standards above, you can  play your YouTube video on the Xbox gaming console according to the guide  below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Connect your USB storage device to your computer, and move the  converted YouTube video from your computer to your USB storage device.<br \/>\n  <strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Download the Media Player app on your Xbox gaming console and  install it.<br \/>\n  <strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Eject the USB storage device from your computer and connect it to  one of the USB ports on your Xbox gaming console. There Xbox One has three USB  ports you can use: Two on the back of the console, and one on the side.<br \/>\n<strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Open the Media Player app and you&rsquo;ll see your connected drive as an  option. Select the drive and you can browse all the media files on it and play  them. The playback can be freely controlled with your Xbox controller.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tc2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/play-YouTube-on-Xbox-Media-Player-App-and-USB-09.png\" onClick=\"return hs.expand(this)\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/play-YouTube-on-Xbox-Media-Player-App-and-USB-09.png\" title=\"play-YouTube-on-Xbox-Media-Player-App-and-USB-09\" alt=\"play-YouTube-on-Xbox-Media-Player-App-and-USB-09\" width=\"\" height=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\"><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-part pl20 mt10\" id=\"part4\"><b>Extension: YouTube files formats and Xbox supported formats<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>As you can see from the instructions above,  in order to play a YouTube video on your Xbox gaming console, you need to  firstly download the YouTube video, then convert the video format of the video  before you can transfer the video to the Xbox gaming console. That&rsquo;s because  the video file you download from YouTube sometimes cannot be directly played on  your Xbox gaming console due to the format incompatibility. <\/p>\n<p>YouTube and Xbox gaming console has  different video format standards. According to the YouTube official guideline,  YouTube supports the following video formats for upload: 3GPP, AVI, FLV, MOV,  MPEG4, MPEGPS, WebM and WMV. YouTube also recommends specific encoding settings  for optimal conversion. These are the H.264 video codec for an .mp4 container, and  the AAC-LC audio codec with a sample rate of 48 kHz or 96 kHz. However, because  YouTube re-encodes the video after it&rsquo;s uploaded, the video you download from  YouTube usually do not have the same format as its original format when it&rsquo;s  uploaded. The format of your downloaded video usually depends on the downloader  tool you use. The common formats downloaded from YouTube are MP4, AVI or FLV,  although a good YouTube downloader could provide more flexible download options.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Xbox gaming console, the  supported video formats are mkv, mov, MPEG-PS, MPEG-2, MPEG-2 HD, MPEG-2 TS, H.  264\/MPEG-4 AVC, MPEG-4 SP, and WMV HD. So in order to make sure your YouTube  video can be played on your Xbox gaming console, you usually need to convert  the YouTube video to one of the above formats with a video converter program  like Leawo Video Converter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As one of the most popular gaming consoles in the world, Xbox can be used to do a lot of things.
