After downloading the PS4 app this week and seeing how well it worked I wanted to try and do the same with my Xbox One. I downloaded the trial for Parallels 11 and got everything up and running but I can't get the Xbox to stream to the iMac. I can connect to the xbox through the iMac and can control it but when I hit "Stream" it never loads up. I ran the streaming test and it came back with all green check marks from "low" to "very high". Anyone use this setup and can offer any advice?

I use this setup, but not sure how much advice I can offer. Mine just worka fine, except the occasional not connected error if I try to connect too soon after the remote power up of the console.
 
I think I had a similar problem at first, and resolved it by switching the network adapter in the virtual machine settings to be a bridged network rather than shared. (I think shared was the default.)
