4K TV & Xbox One S will not upscale. Help.

J 3ennett · Sep 23, 2016

My new Xbox One S came today and one thing I was most looking forward to was playing my Muse concert Blu Ray in 4K.

My TV is a Philips 4K 6800 series that supports 4K UHD at up to 30Hz.

I had an error to start with but resolved that by changing my video output to 24Hz. Anyway finally got the 4K disc playing and it was displaying in 1080i @29Hz. Why?

I currently have my Video settings at: Allow 24hz and Allow 4K, but on the TV Resolution drop down when I select 4K UHD it says "That didn't work because you're TV supports 4K but does not support it at 60Hz. Erm yes I know it doesn't support 60Hz? So why
can't I run everything at 24-30Hz?

Seriously Microsoft the main reason I bought this was to use the 4K player. What's the deal man? I'm hoping this will be resolved over an update since I'm not exactly using a high spec Sony or Samsung tv. But it should still be supported!!!

Xbox One S 4K upscaling for DVDs and standard Blu-rays

I would like to purchase a 4K Blu-ray Player for my new 4K TV, and the Xbox One S seems like a good choice since it can be used for gaming and other entertainment as well. However, I would also like to play non-4K discs (480p, 720p, 1080p) on the Xbox One
S using a 4K TV.

So, my question is:

Does the Blu-ray App on Xbox One S upscale SD (480p DVDs) and HD (720p & 1080p standard Blu-rays) discs to 4K?

Xbox One S 8 Bit 4K support

Hello,

I have an older model 4K tv. It's an 8 Bit panel not 10 bit, non HDR. My question is, will the Xbox one S still upscale games to 4K and will I be able to view UHD blu ray in 4K?

Is your tv the 6809 series ( no ambilight ) . If so it won't support connected 4K due to it not having HDMI 2.0 . Will only play streamed or broadcast 4K

No, but you can upscale on your TV or Monitor. I have a One S and upscale to 4K.

Xbox One S has a 1080p output for this game with HDR. You TV upscale input video signal to 4K, if it not a 4K or less.

Xbox One S and X does not support 4K at 120hz and to get 4K at 120hz you need a HDMI 2.1 port on both console and TV,

also the Xbox One S is a 1080p console that upscales to 4K unlike the One X which is 4K console.

I personally use a Samsung 4k tv currently with my Xbox one x previously had an s and honesty I'd go with a 4k because what they don't tell you is that your tv will upscale it to 4k automatically

The xbox one S runs games at 1080p, mostly, it will not run games at 4k, it will upscale and allow hdr if your tv does, also supports 4k blue ray and netflix.

most games will run at 900p upwards and upscaled and run mostly at 30fps
