Flickering and flashing om series s and x

The problem you are describing sounds like it may be a setting on the monitor/TV that is being used that needs to be changed.

Some of these monitors come with a variety of framerate and other default options on the screen itself--for example, my TV has a Standard, Movie, and Gaming mode available on it. Despite having consoles connected, I actually don't use the Gaming mode when I'm playing games because it causes a strange effect on my screen when I'm playing.

Have you tried looking up the manual for your monitor/TV and seeing if changing that option helps?

If the problem is because of the console, then the problem will still be present when you connect another TV or monitor into it. So you can try connect it to another TV or monitor and seeing if the problem is still there.

Finally, you can try changing the cable, as the problem could also be the cable that is in use.

Let me know if this works.

I have exactly the same issue today with the Xbox Series X but not the S.

"issue with flickering pixels that only happen on the menus of the console, but not in game"

tried multiple displays and multiples HDMI cable.

Do you have any news update?

I am sorry that didn't work. Are you using an external hard drive? Does the same issue happen on both TV and monitor?

My name is Loren. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

My suggestion is to make a "Factory Reset".

it will refresh your system and delete any corrupted files that are causing issues.

- Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

- Select System > Settings > System > Console info.

- Select Reset console.

- On the Reset your console screen: Select "Reset and keep my games & apps".

You will have to sign in again.

I know that the xbox one controllers will work om the xbox series x so they should but I cannot guarantee it, we will have to wait and see
