10-bit color in video settings when having an 8-bit FRC panel?

Yes, choose the 10-bit option for color depth. This will allow HDR color on supported games.

Yes this makes perfect sense. I was thinking the same thing. If you have an older 4k tv with out HDR it would be a (8-bit) panel. If you have a newer HDR10+ panel it would be a (10-bit) panel. and 4k tv with Dolby vision will most likely be a (12-bit) panel,
at least on higher end Dolby vision equipped panels. Anyway I switch my colored fidelity to(10-bit 30 bit per pixel) and noticed a difference right away from the 8-Bit. Much better color fidelity taking advantage of the HDR 10-bit panel. So yeah set it to
the correct color depth of your panel and you'll see the wider colors😎. Just search your TV panel on the internet to find what color bit depth it is.this site will let you know your panel specs.

I can not find much info on that TV but it seems most likely due to the price, that it's using fake 10 bit color in what's called "8Bit + A-FRC" to get that many colors. This is not technically 10 bit color but 8 bit color that has a screen feature that
blinks between two colors in a pixel to approximate the color that 8 bit can't show.

On the other hand, some TVs actually have to make you enable UHD color on each HDMI input before it will show 10 bit color if it's true 10 bit color. My Samsung required me to do that. Look around in the TV options with your remote to see if that's the case
in the menu, then reboot your console by unplugging it for 30 seconds. It should show 10 bit after you enable that option, if there is one.

A bit more info I found....

"

‘8-bit HDR’
Some manufacturers will label their televisions as HDR even if they only support 8-bit color. This is because there are 2 different specifications that can classify a TV as having HDR compatibility: contrast
and color depth.

Contrast is the specification we’re looking at here. Contrast is the difference between the blackest black a panel can produce and the whitest white. Technically, the more nits produced by a panel the whiter
is can be, so often times manufacturers will meet a certain contrast level and stick the ‘HDR’ sticker on their TV. While this is not going to look as good as something with a 10-bit panel, it will still look quite a bit better than your standard ‘non-HDR’
8-bit TV."

Not sure how it applies to videos tbf though

What is the model of your TV? Sometimes, manufacturers disable 4K resolution over one or more of the HDMI inputs, and you must manually enable it in the TV's settings with your remote.

The Xbox One can support almost any TV with an HDMI input. The 8/10-bits on panels only indicates whether the TV supports HDR or not, which is an optional feature. The Xbox One X can support 8-bit 4K displays (considered non-HDR
4K).

If your TV is an 8-bit panel (non-HDR), then make sure the "Color depth" setting is set to "24 bits per pixel (8-bit)" while switching to 4K UHD resolution. You may also want to experiment with the advanced video settings if you
are still having issues in trying to get your Xbox One X to display in 4K.

Hello Wrecker!

Here is some solutions from the support channel:

Make sure the Xbox is automatically detecting your TV

Go to System > Settings > Display
& sound > Video output. Under the Advanced column,
choose Video fidelity & overscan. In the Display column, ensure that Auto-detect (Recommended) is
selected. 4K isn't available when HDMI or DVI is manually selected.

Also there are more setup and help solutions to 4k and HDR here:

Hope this helps!

Thank you for your reply. I understand all the settings everything's fine my question was which video Fidelity to pick 8-bit or 10-bit for my particular TV which is a Samsung 10 bit panel hdr10 Plus some people have told me different things that I don't
believe are right so I'm trying to get the right answer. Should I set the (Video Fidelity) To "Color Depth "30 bits per pixel (10-bit)", If my 4K HDR10+ TV is a 10 bit panel? The default preset on Xbox One X is (24 bits
per pixel (8-bit) But you have a choice of the greater Color Bit Depth's of (10-bit) or (12-bit). Thank you to everyone who has input on this.🙂
