Color Depth Question

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.🙂

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've never been able to find a straight answer on this. No one seems to be able to tell me which to use.
