Hello .
My name is Ryan. I'm an Independent Consultant and I'm happy to help you today.

The first step i would check here is your HDMI cable. If you can try to use a HDMI 2.1 cable. This should fix your issue in my experience.

Kind regards

Hi There

have a similar issue with the game

what worked for me was to turn on (or if it was on, turn it off\on again) the YCC 4.2.2 under video modes

This is because you are forgetting.when you use a splitter /switchwr you are sharing the same bandnwidth

Sharing the bandwidth? Sharing with what exactly? The switcher switches the output signal to the alternative HDMI on the switch box, it wouldn't be sharing it with anything else.

I agree with Lucas and suspect that the manufacturer hasn't been quite truthful about the switch box's capabilities. Either that, or it's faulty. A 48Gb/s switchbox should have the full capabilities to support 120Hz @ 4K with HDR.

In the Xbox video settings, has the 'Allow YCC 4.2.2' have a tick in the box? YCC/YUV are the colour primaries and 4:2:2 is the compression used. YCC 4.4.4 is no compression and uses more bandwidth. If 4.2.2 works then problem solved. The compression should not be noticeable in games.

Note that the cable going from the TV HDMI to the Switch must also be fully HDMI 2.1 compliant. If that doesn't fix it, replace the switcher.

I forgot to check the YCC 4:2:2 option in Video Modes.

If anyone has problems regarding HDR on the TV, try to activate the YCC !
