Connecting Xbox One S to Displayport on PC Monitor

ShiningGundam · Aug 17, 2016

I have a 4K monitor with HDMI 2.0 ports but it only supports 4k 10-bit at 24hz not 50 or 60. It only does it on the displayports. Is there a why to connect the HDMI 2.0 from the XB1s to the displayport. I searched an only found displayport to HDMI 2.0
active adapters. Any suggestions?

thanks,

Paul

Can Xbox one work through DisplayPort

Ok, so I was wondering if my Xbox One S would work with DisplayPort. I know it doesn't have a DisplayPort plug-in so I am thinking about buying a DisplayPort to HDMI cable. If I plugged the HDMI part into the Xbox and the DisplayPort part into my monitor,
will it work or no?

Xbox One S 1440p on 4k monitor

I have just installed the latest xbox insider spring update 1804. This is supposed to offer among other things, the 1440p resolution. The problem is that i am the owner of a 4k gsync monitor with displayport and hdmi 1.4, and when connecting the xbox one
s on said monitor through the hdmi port, the 1440p option is not visible, when obviously the monitor and the cable and hdmi input support the resolution. Could something be done to alleviate the problem? Even with a future update. I mean to expose all the
supported resolutions of a monitor. Up until now the connection of the xbox one s on this monitor has been nothing short of frustrating. I cannot use the 4k output because of the hdmi 1.4 input, there is no hdmi 2.0 to displayport adapter to fix this through
the displayport input and now, after hoping that at least i could use the new 1440p resolution support which is well within hdmi 1.4 specs, again i cannot. Any help would be appreciated.

Go into your xbox one video settings and try allowing 24Hz mode.

The 24Hz is checked and passed. So I assume any content at 24Hz will play fine. But the Xbox wants 10-bit 60Hz to play games or other content at that refresh rate.

same question here. Want to connect my Xbox One S to a display port on my p2715q. Via HDMI I get only 30hz and I actually need to HDMI free for my laptop.

Any solution?

Make sure also that the monitor supports, HDMI Displayport 2.0 as that what the Xbox One S and Xbox One X use, I believe that the standard Xbox One only uses HDMI Displayport 1.4,

Its possible that the monitor only supports HDMI Displayport 1.4,

Its possible that you're TV has HDMI Displayport 2.0, which could be the reason it works on the TV but not the monitor.

I'm saying that HDMI to displayport adapters are pointless to use, and if you were to use one , you'll still only be getting 60hz.

you want to connect the HDMI port of the Xbox console to a HDMI port on the monitor or TV for the best outcome,

because the Xbox One X does not have a displayport on the console, you can't go displayport to displayport,

so the only choice is HDMI to HDMI, i personally would not go HDMI from the console to displayport on the monitor via an HDMI to displayport adapter,

when connecting to a monitor it's best to go straight...

HDMI to HDMI

or

Displayport to Displayport

never

HDMI to Displayport via an adapter.
