Every now and then when playing on my Xbox X my colors seem to be washed out or dim it only...

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello HardMigraiine, This is only happening with MW2 or in all the games you try to play on Xbox One.

You switched in some kind of TV or Xbox setup, Samart TV's have image modes like Movie, Games, News, Sport etc, and depending on how your TV is, the colors can get a little weird.

I have the same issue but it happens with anything HDR including Forza Horizon 3. When content with HDR enabled kicks in the Xbox flashes black and then auto dims until the app that is using HDR is closed. It really sucks because it washes out the colors.
The Netflix app on my TV with HDR doesn't do this so it rules out my TV as the issue. What's going on?

Im just happy my games look good again! Finally they no longer looked washed out and the colors look nice and rich. Makes me want to go back and play arkahm city again, since I played the whole game when the color's looked washed out.

Why are there so many posts on this all over the interwebs with no solution anywhere?

I also have the ks8000 and all hdr content is dim. Colors are ok but far to dim. Driving at dusk in Forza Horizon 3 in the jungle is unplayable without adding dynamic contrast or changing the in game brightness/ hdr brightness to unreasonable levels...
which washes out the screen.

Playing in game mode, backlight 20, dynamic contrast off, smart led high, eco settings all off. Specifically using rting settings.

Ps4 Pro players saying they dont have the issues

I've been having the same issue I just go to something colorful and the color comes back the dimness only happens when games start

Same here with a Samsung KS7000, connected with the XBOX ONE S original HDMI cable and with all the correct settings enabled (HDMI UHD Color, XBOX settings, etc.). All the HDR content like 4K HDR blu-rays or games like NBA 2K17 look like the colors are
washed out. Everything seems dimmed, like having a white filter.

I bought XBOX ONE S to be used as a game console but also as a blu-ray player to complement my 4K HDR TV. Please Microsoft address this issue and solve it ASAP.

Thanks!!
