Replied on September 22, 2016. Since the remote play is truely a feature of Windows 10 playing on a mac without Windows 10 will not work. I can confirm however that running a windows 10 parallels VM will in fact let you play and stream the xbox from my macbook pro. Click on “Apply.”. Your Mac will now be configured to work with your Xbox 360. Click on the “Guide” button on your Xbox 360 controller. The Guide button is the round button marked with an “X” in the middle of the controller. Navigate to “Settings” and select “System Settings.”. Then enable Remote Play via Remote Play Connection.
