    Does Xbox One X support 4K video files?


    Hi all,

    I was just wondering if the Xbox One X fully supports 4K video files through the Media Player app.

    I know the S did not support 4K video files, but the PS4 Pro and standalone 4K players do.

    Does the Xbox One X now support 4K video file playback?

    thanks.

    :)

    Directv 4K channels limited to 1080p on Xbox One X

    I am having the exact same problem with my C61K-700. In the advanced video input settings and "4K Details" my Xbox One X states that my TV supports 4K content (all the parameters pass as indicated with green checks). I bypassed the Xbox One X and connected
    my C61K-700 directly to my 4K TV and it does show up the 4K content. When connected to the XBox One X even though it passes all the checks in identifying my TV as being a compatible 4K TV, when going the the video input and resolutions setting within my C61K-700,
    the 4K option is grayed out and states your TV doesn't support 4K content. When bypassing the XBox One X, the 4K resolution isn't grayed out and I'm able to successfully check the 4K resolution and DirecTV channel 104 does display content in 4K and doesn't
    downgrade my resolution to 1080p as it does when connected to the XBox One X. I have yet to get a solution from XBox Support in resolving this issue.

    Does Xbox One X support 4K video files?

    Yes and no. It depends on how it's encoded. Usually if it's encoded with DTS and a MP4 it will work. From my personal experience it's a bit picky with 4k resolutions. Check

    this link     on the official media formats.

    I'm bumping this thread because I'm getting ready to buy an Xbox One X soon.

    just wondering if anyone else has been able to play 4K video files saved on a USB stick using either the Media Player app or VLC app on the Xbox One X?

    Will xbox one support 1080p HDR like PS4 does?

    Of course Xbox One X supports 4K and HDR for both compatible video content and games, but Xbox One S should support 4K video content and HDR color palettes for games. The original first-gen Xbox One unfortunately will not support either.
    So you are saying it does indeed do 1080p games with hdr?
