Problems with EFB on Xcloud / Xbox.

[ricardo]

I have a situation that does not happen on all Inibuilds aircraft. In some, I can enter the Simbrief ID normally, but in others, I cannot. When I try to enter the Simbrief ID, the Xbox virtual keyboard window appears, but even when trying to enter the Simbrief ID, the screen disappears without entering anything. The problem is that it seems to enter input mode and does not exit this situation, leaving you stuck. The simulator continues to work, you can enter the menu, but the controls no longer operate the surfaces, and the simulator seems to be stuck trying to enter some information.

This does not happen on the A330-200 and 300. If you try to enter the Simbrief ID on these aircraft, the EFB virtual keyboard appears (with a warning that the aircraft cannot be controlled in this mode), but you can type the Simbrief ID without any problems using the keyboard that comes with the EFB itself. In other words, it does not bring up the Xbox virtual keyboard window, so there is no problem.

However, this happens on the A330 Beluga and the A400M. Although you can manually enter the route, pulling from Simbrief is more efficient.
