Yes you can. I just updated mine with a micro USB from my Nexus 7. It even asks you if you want to update another after you're done. Two controllers took about 3min.

So what's the best feature of this update so far? I gotta say party chat with automatic party chat turned on will be a huge plus. Took me like 30 minutes the first time to figure out why I couldn't hear my friends

You absolute darling.
Thank you !
Yes
The process for me went:
Email - 20/02
Xbox Dash Message with code - 21/02
Downloaded and ran app - 21/02
Message confirming I'll get update "soon" - 25/02
Update - 26/02
FWIW, people I referred on the 24/02 got their Xbox Dash Message with a code on the 25/02

How do you download the app? I redeemed on PC and there's nothing on the dashboard.
Go to "My Games and App" and then "Apps" wait a moment then scroll to the far right, it should be under "ready to install"

Wow, didn't even know that existed. Thanks.
I believe that feature only came out this month actually, so you're not alone!

No update here yet. Just turned my box on and nothing, and the Preview app says they are processing my registration.

The update is nice, you can tell Twitch is integrated with the dashboard because from the home screen it says how many friends are broadcasting; in addition to alternating between how many friends and favorites are online.
Another great feature of this update is to disable hand gestures while watching videos!
Its a new option under Kinect settings.

Quick question regarding the update:
I use the Kinect for Skype quite a lot, but it drives me nuts that it uses the same mic for multiplayer, making me have to go into the settings and disable/enable it depending on what I'm doing.
Is there now a way to make Kinect the "default" mic for Skype, and turn it off for Multiplayer chat?

Yeah, remember there are 2 ports on the controller. One is micro USB, the other is proprietary.

Was in a rush this morning, but I did see my power brick was orange. Can't wait to try when I get home.
Browsing reddit I've seen some more updates with the patch. You can now choose how much you want your volume to increase/decrease when you say "Xbox Volume Up/Down" as well as..

apparently you can already use the "Xbox, Broadcast" command, it will take you to twitch, but you wont actually be able to broadcast yet.

I got an email, then a message on my console couple days ago. Then an auto update this morning. I'm on the east coast.

No new options for that, and there hasn't been an update to the Skype app yet..
I imagine they could add audio settings to the Skype app to fix that issue.. Would be a good idea.
Thank god. No more floaty hands when watching Netflix!
Bitstream just passes the signal it receives. So if the source is Dolby Digital, I'd imagine it outputs Dolby Digital.
Yeah, I believe you'll need a receiver to decode the signal for bitstream. Any benefit to turn it on?
So exciting to see all of these small new features -- that's what I get excited about. Can't wait for us plebs to get the update lol.

WTF! I posted my GT on the ambassador forums 4 days ago and I still havent gotten anything. I wish they were more consistent with how they did this stuff.

Can anyone confirm this? I don't see the option anywhere.. Seems to behave the same as before.

I saw it there when I did a quick look at the update before I left for work. Didn't fiddle with anything though. I think saw it under Audio if I remember correctly.
If you're using surround sound in any way, you'll have a receiver. For example, if you have a set of Astros and a Mixamp, stick it on, and it'll decode the signal as full Dolby 5.1

I got the message on Xbox.com and put the code they gave me in, I didn't check last night to see if the app downloaded, but I assume it did. To get the update I'll just have to hard reboot right?
You have to sign into that app and agree to the terms and such.
No, you have to open the app to register your interest in being a beta tester. Then you'll get the update whenever it rolls around.

Update of the forever, disabling hand gestures is something that is sorely needed.
