3440x1440p monitor and xbox one?

hi, like the topic says..

I want to get an xbox one, but have it in my gaming room, and use the same monitor as I have for my pc, an 3440x1440p monitor, my question is does it work with xbox on this type of widescreen monitor/resolution, or will it just look like crap?

:)

 

Screen resolution problem!

It's possible that the Xbox 360 thinks the monitor doesn't support the timings for 1920x1080.

Disabling display discovery makes the Xbox 360 ignore some of the EDID data but not all. Maybe if it thinks the resolution is out of range in terms of bandwidth for the monitor the Xbox 360 still hides it.

So my instinct is that it is a compatibility issue where the EDID data given by the monitor is either self-contradictory or the Xbox 360 misinterprets it. If so, there is no immediate solution except to report the issue to Microsoft and the monitor manufacturer
and cross ones fingers.

Hi there. First you should try the steps that TMX boxburn recommends. If your Xbox has trouble reading the resolution and other settings of your monitor, you should try to find the resolution of your monitor by looking at the monitor menu or reading its
documentation. Currently, the Xbox 360 supports a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. You should set the Xbox resolution to the closest setting to your monitor, but don't set a higher resolution than the monitor.

Thanks for the reply, So if I would use my 34" superwide monitor, ut would work, but take up a 1920x1080 portion of the screen, and the rest be black bars on the sides if I understand correct?
