Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 5040UB with Denon S720W having issues with 4k

Hi all,

I am very confused. My Projector says it supports 4k HDR10 and so does my reciever. However, when I go to display settings 4k detail it says my TV setup doesn't support 4k 10-bit at 50hz, TV setup doesn't support 4k 10-bit at 60hz, TV setup doesn't support
Dobly Vision, TV setup doesn't support HDR10 for gaming, and TV setup doesn't support HDR10 for video capture.

But it supports HDR10 for video and 4k 10-bit at 24HZ as well as 4k UHD (60Hz). Yet when I call the companies that make my reciever and projector they say it does indeed support HDR10. Also when I look at the Signal output, it says the color depth is 8-bit
4:2:0, the people at Epson said the Xbox should be output 4:2:2. Anyone know what I need to do so my Xbox and project give me the support it is suppose to? The color format is also showing up as BT.709 But if I switch to my 4k fireTv it says the color format
is BT.2020 HDR. I also tried plugging my projector directly into the xbox, bypassing the reciever and still get the same data from the 4k details screen. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

:)

Got it to work, So the HDFury Linker did the trick. The company gave me a bin that included 3D, and now it works great, except I can only do a max of 8-bit color for 4k, I believe that is all my projector supports at 60HZ. I don't see any way to lower the
HZ and if I go above 8-bit it just renders a black screen

. Oh well. at least it is at 4k60HZ and HDR10

The singal coming form the XBOX is 4k 60hz but for color depth 8-bit and 4:2:0. From what I understand 8-bit is fine, but the 4:2:0 should either be 4:2:2 and 4:4:4, which makes me wonder if I need to get a HDFury Linker and connect that to my Projector
which then connects to the AVR, for the Xbox to detect that it does indeed support it. UGH Wish I knew more about 4k technologies. Still super confused why PS4 Pro, Roku, and FireTv all send the right stuff but Xbox doesn't.

Before you go buying that have you tried the other settings, auto will set what it thinks is best.

It is all set to Auto which is what the TS person at Espon said is to correct setting to be set at, for it to work properly.

Did some more research and it looks like I need to get a HDFury Linker, as the Projector has a processor that is a little too slow for the Xbox one X, which is why everything else works but the Xbox. URGH, considering the price of the proejctor and Xbox,
I now need to dish out another 150 - 200 bucks. Sigh. Well at least I have a solution.

Thanks all for trying to help.
