Paul Thurrott reports that Microsoft is currently internally testing TV DVR functionality on the Xbox One.

“A source very close to Microsoft tells me that the software giant is now internally testing TV DVR (digital video recording) functionality for Xbox One,” Thurrott said.

The update, “Xbox One Threshold Beta 1603 System Update”, will let the Xbox One record free-to-air television and will work while you’re playing games, watching another channel or even when the console is sleeping.

We’ll have more on this as it becomes available.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
