    Darkened screen when playing certain games at Native Resolution


    So I'm having this very strange issue when playing certain games set at the same resolution as the desktop. When the game boots up, the screen suddenly goes dark. I can still see the game but it's like the brightness has been turned all the way down. Almost like there's some sort of filter over the top of it.

    This goes away when switching from borderless windowed to regular windowed, as does bringing up the widget menu thing.

    Turning off HDR solves the issue, as does changing the desktop and game resolution so that they're different, but it's not ideal.

    It only happens in a few games, but the main offender right now is Forza Horizon 4. No matter what settings I change (other than turning off HDR) the dark filter just wont go away.

    Has anyone else come across this? Or have any ideas on how to fix it?

    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    Do games that are 60fps lose their framerate when playing 720p on a native 1080p screen ?

    Oh yeah another thing I want to ask does playing 360 on a 1080p native resolution screen cause any input lag in games when you use your controller ? Either when you set the console at 720p or 1080p .

    How to swith RESOLUTION even when it dont allow?

    if your setup won't natively support certain resolutions it's never a good idea to try and force it.

    Xbox in game resolution

    I have tried trouble shooting the resolution but the game it’s self looks pixelated playing at 1080p on a 1440p monitor when I play any game on the Xbox series s. but if I play the same game on the Xbox one x it plays at the native resolution at 1440p

    HELP!!! Bingo app crashed on startup.

    i'm having the same problem on my surface pro 3. Tried all the above, but it still crashes and won't start. I did the screen resolution change and it works. Need to fix it so it works with the surface pro 3 native resolution. It's a pain having to change
    the screen resolution every time I want to play.

    So, I looked at Ryse closely yesterday on youtube in 1080p...

    Way too much emphasis on native resolution. All games are output at 1080p regardless the native resolution. The quality of the textures is much more important than the native resolution. Ryse is a great example of a game with
    quality textures vs. native resolution. The latest GT on the PS3 is a great example of a native 1080p game with lower quality textures. You can't simply use 1080p as a baseline for measuring graphic quality.
