Video Communications with Xbox 360

 

Manage who your child can communicate with on Xbox LIVE using video.

To configure your child's communications settings for Xbox LIVE:

  1. Start from the System area of the Xbox Dashboard or—if you're using your Xbox 360 system for the first time—from the Initial Setup Complete screen. Select Family Settings, Xbox Live Controls and sign in using the password for your Windows Live ID.
  2. Select Privacy and Friends, Video.
  3. Choose one of the following settings:
    • Select Everyone to allow your child to communicate with anyone on Xbox LIVE using video.
    • Select Friends Only to allow your child to communicate only with people on his or her friends list using video.
    • Select Blocked to prevent everyone from communicating with your child using video. Your child will still receive new friend requests.


    To keep your child from viewing video and images, set this option to Blocked or Friends Only. If you choose Friends Only, be sure to manage your child's friends list using the New Online Friends control.

To configure your child's settings for new online friends (including settings for approving friend requests), see New Online Friends for Xbox 360.
