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?
Hey bro, thanks for the video. I do have a question about how to capture game chat. I have the Series, and I use a Elgato 4k60s to capture my game play. What do I need to capture game chat?
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 RUclips channels do. Excellent video bro! Thank you.
MY GUY THANK YOU SO MUCH! I just bought the A50s and just got the new console and was extremely pissed off that these weren't working. YOU SAVED ME! thank you so much! forever thankful
I was my A50 for PC only the day I got my Series X and I used my old A40 for the Xbox, but now my A40 got a loose contact. I was about to buy a completely new one if I didn't find that video. So I want to say big big thanks you safed me a lot of money and I can go back to gaming now
Even 2 years later this guide is way more helpful than other RUclips guides I've seen or especially astro themselves. I can say anything more than what others have already pointed out. Thanks a bunch for clarifying cuz I was about to take them back.
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? 🙏🏻
That video makes me dare to buy the Astro A50 now. The video is short and precise and you speak clearly and distinctly. Thank you ... little greetings from Denmark
I’ve done all this and I get sound fine but I’m not sure if I’m getting Dolby audio? The Dolby button on the headset doesn’t make any difference to the sound for me. Is that how it’s meant to be or have I done something wrong?
THOSE WHO HAVE NOT WORKED FOR THEM, HAVE TO DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL ASTRO PROGRAM, BUT FROM THE MICROSOFT STORE, BECAUSE THERE IS AN APPLICATION THAT IS NOT AND DOES NOT UPDATE THE HEATSETS TO THE LAST VERSION, IN THIS VIDEO, SEE THE STEPS , THEY ARE LIKE THE MITAT OF THE VIDEO, I ALREADY SOLVED IT
Not all heroes wear capes! Thank you so much for that clear and easy tutorial. Just one thing: you forgot to mention, that you have to switch the base back to xbox before you plug it in the Xbox Series X
Just got a Series X after using the a50's on an Xbox One for a while. I was always a bit perplexed at how Dolby Atmos worked without buying a code, you've informed me well my friend (good news to hear I've got a lifetime subscription that I wasn't aware of too), I'm a happy man 😎👍
@@DoubtMeTech Hey what’s happening with the lifetime subscription to Dolby, that’s you talked about. Everything was fine for a couple of months, now it says I don’t have Dolby anymore and have to pay. Other people have this problem as well, please help
If you see this years later I had lost all hope until I put it into xbox mode, plugged the base station via micro usb into my xbox series x and then when I docked the headset it instantly gave me the pop up saying headset assigned. Try this before giving up after your headset is updated. Works perfect!
I've tried this but it doesn't work for me. I had to downgrade to my old TV just to use the optic cable so I can hear sound with my new Xbox. It honestly sucks :(
I powered up my laptop after seeint a lot of complaints but funnily enough, in 2023 you no longer need that update. There wasn't one and everything works fine! Great video regardless, thank you, this is so much better than Astro's!
I have the Playstation version of the A50 Gen 4 my wofe just bought me, the store that sold it to her said it would work with xbox as well with nothing extra needing to be bought or hooked up, is that true? Can I use this headset with my Xbox one and Xbox series x after updating it?
When I try to download the firmware it keeps saying it’s in bootloader mode I’ve tried downloading the firmware on windows 10 and standard command center. I’ve reset my headset couple times unplug everything and plug it back in nothing still works.. Please help
Wow! I can imagine how much you had to spend turning the cog wheels of the brain to find this golden nugget of information. Cudo's to you and thank you again 😊👍
awesome video, so i had them for ps5 but got rid of ps5 i got a xbox s til i can get a x model, do you no if this method will get my game chat on my stream ?
Best explained video for these headsets, thank you soo much for this excellent video!! I got confused when connecting to the Xbox, but after this, you made it so simple for me ! Keep it up!!
@@detectiverdr2305 no I haven’t, the only issue I had was with me not hearing whoever was in my party but that was a simple fix with my output/input settings, I’m not sure if that can help in your situation, sorry!
Hey I have problems with the update of the firmware, when I connected to pc it gives me a version older than the one you have, do you know what i have to do ?
Is optical one of those pieces of tech that has now become obsolete or is it still a valuable option when it comes to audio? In short, if optical is an option with something, should it be used over other options?
If optical is an option, it still has the superior quality with most scenarios. For gaming headsets I don't think the quality difference is noticeable.
Is there a way to use the Astro’s on the Xbox series S and get game audio while having it also connected to my PC to hear PC audio and use it as a MIC for streaming ?
My gen 3 base station isnt recognized and asks me to do trial or 10 dollar payment. Also my dolby surround sound button on my headset does absolutely nothing now. It beeps as if its changing to surround sound but the quality is still the same with no surround sound.
@@nunnybun3256 no solution. The lack of a direct audio port on the series x makes it incompatible. So youre stuck using them as a standard headset through usb... Pretty lame for the series x to take a step back like that. Ive gotten used to it tho
The firmware update is not coming up for me... I plugged it into my pc and started up the astro command center, but there's no notification that it needs a update :( please help
this has the updated versions you can install manually...took me a while to find it but it worked. Also, if your mic still isn't working, try a different usb cord, that fixed mine. www.reddit.com/r/AstroGaming/comments/muryxi/astro_troubleshooting_guide_manually_updating/
@@michaelmarquez6133 how I felt dealing with this headset. I got a series X and had to go through it all over again. It just didn’t like it until I updated it. Apparently there was an another update pending the SECOND it was plugged into both xboxes.
@@Conbonzx so I'm thinking of getting this headset last week I got a series x and I have a turtle beach that cost me like 350 I think but it doesn't work on the x box because no optical cable! Or I'm thinking of getting the 100 dollar headset that Microsoft came out with the "official " one I guess, should I get the ASTRO? Is it way better or just ok? Thanks
@@michaelmarquez6133 for games that require precision sound, astro any day, their default sound is so good. I swear by astros, if you can afford the a40 or a50, they are amazing. there's a difference in sound, it sounds more bassey, but it sounds surrounding, whereas other headsets i've tried have been very tinny and like hollow sounding
How did you connect he Astro50 wire to the Xbox? I connected the same wire that has the small UsB to the Astro base to the USB on the XBox but it doesn’t connect?
When i connected it to my mac, It did not need an update, and when i connect it to my Xbox I never get the notification on the bottom that says it synced
Can you connect the headset to the Xbox and the Bluetooth on your cell phone at the same time? If so, how do you do that? Thanks so much for you help and time!
Even with the update, the consoles were still made for optical audio. Pick up an HDMI audio extractor or the ps5 HDMI adapter. Works fine. My only question is even with Atmos enabled, do you turn passthrough (star) off or on?
Did all the steps, everything is detected in the atmos app and even set to Dolby atmos for headphones and I never get any audio through my headset. All firmware is completely up to date as well.
@@madden907 yeah I returned them. These headphones are not as compatible with the series x as claimed. I guess I’m just stuck with my wired Razer Krakens
Video makes it seem so easy. Yet like you, did all the steps, still get no game audio through the headset. Same headset works fine plug and play on PS5 though... why make the Xbox so complicated?
@@Verlassen13 yeah I don’t understand why Xbox has so many incompatibility issues for wireless headsets, that never used to be an issue until the Xbox one era. 8 months after returning this junk of a headset I still haven’t found a remotely decent wireless headset compatible with my series x.
Its like shit over usb no 3d sound and you have Always Problems With Sound stutter and this things for Xbox one x Good Perfect no Problems and for Series x Shit very shit
I am using astro a50 gen 3's with the base station. However, when I go to the dolby atmos app, it does not recognize my base station and requires me to pay. Can anyone help me understand why I don't have the lifetime subscription?
The only problem using the A50s and A40s in usb mode they both go into passthrough mode so the eq and Dolby buttons are disabled because the Dolby access app does it all on the Xbox!
I bought my A50 wireless+BaseStation gen 4 for the ps4/5 Are these able to be used on the series X as well by downloading this onto the basestation and headset or will it not connect at all due the platform it’s sold for which is the PlayStation?
@@paulbowdish4638 unfortunately I wasn't able to find a way to connect my PlayStation A50s to my series X You'll probably have to invest in an Xbox branded wireless headset or use a aux cord connected to the Xbox controller You think most headsets would be universal by now but nope...
@@nunnybun3256 Yeah. Not long after this comment actually. It felt impossible for it to work, as if it was broken, but then all of a sudden everything fell into place.
Any advice on how to get the "Ready to use" to turn green? Mine is staying in the white out. Everything is updated and it's set to Dolby headphones so not sure what the problem is. Thank you!
I have everything plugged in like you said and when I am on the Astros command center app it still says “please connect an Astro gaming device or switch the connected device to Xbox mode”

I bought my A50 wireless+BaseStation gen 4 for the ps4/5 Are these able to be used on the series X as well by downloading this onto the basestation and headset or will it not connect at all due the platform it’s sold for which is the PlayStation?
Same situation here. Did you find a way to get them working on Xbox/x?
@@paulbowdish4638 unfortunately I wasn't able to find a way to connect my PlayStation A50s to my series X You'll probably have to invest in an Xbox branded wireless headset or use a aux cord connected to the Xbox controller You think most headsets would be universal by now but nope...
Mine doesn’t show “ready to use” on the Dolby app and it keeps giving me an error for some reason.
This is so irritating.
Ever figure it out??
@@nunnybun3256 Yeah. Not long after this comment actually. It felt impossible for it to work, as if it was broken, but then all of a sudden everything fell into place.
@@CameronJGilliam So you got it to recognize your base? Cause it wants me to pay
@@nunnybun3256 Is everything set up correctly and it’s still saying that?
Any advice on how to get the "Ready to use" to turn green? Mine is staying in the white out. Everything is updated and it's set to Dolby headphones so not sure what the problem is.
Thank you!
I have everything plugged in like you said and when I am on the Astros command center app it still says “please connect an Astro gaming device or switch the connected device to Xbox mode”
Dolby is not recognizing my headphones when im on the app anybody encounter this issue?
