Full RGB solution and apology to the x box community as well as a shoutout

Before I begin posting this for a second time I just wanted to give a shout out too J3RS3Y DEVIL who recommended I post here instead of the X Box One console Forum. I give credit where credit is due. Thank you J3RS3Y DEVIL for
redirecting me to the proper forum as I am still quite new at this.

So the day before yesterday about a problem with the PC RGB mode on the X Box One. I have found a solution for myself and wanted to share it.

Unfortunately I didn't read the forum rules and I compared the X Box One with other consoles and I was arrogant and rude in my first post so I'm pretty sure it was flagged and taken down and even if it wasn't hardly anyone read it.

Honestly this is an X Box Forum and I should have known better and will from here on out keep my personal opinions to do with other consoles away from this forum as it is rude and not appropriate to everyone that supports X Box and the X Box community.

So to the X Box forum and community I apologize and would like to make amends.

First off there isn't anything wrong with PC RGB setting and I let my impatience get the better of me.

What was really wrong was my setting for the colour depth and I'm sure allot of people will also find this useful as otherwise they will run into the same issue I did.

Any modern TV supports what is known as "deep colour" and although technically changing the colour depth should not effect anything per say but it does in fact improve the picture imo.

I had my colour depth set to 8 bit also known as 24 bits per pixel. Your average TV setting at limited and the standard rgb setting on the X Box One makes excellent use of this. It looks so good that I'm sure most people wont bother to switch over. When
you change to PC RGB mode and full mode on your tv I have found that the 8 bit setting crushes blacks.

So when you turn on PC RGB you should also change the colour depth to whatever your TV Supports. You can look this up usually on the internet or through experimentation see for yourself. If the setting you choose such as 10 bit or 12 bit only fades to a
black screen then your tv does not support that colour depth. Makes it fairly easy to discover your maximum depth quickly.

So after adjusting my settings to 36 bit aka 12 bits per pixel and turning both the tv and console on to full rgb wala the picture looks great in full.

I emphasize the word "great" because it isn't perfect by a long shot.

Due to the fact that I did not originally understand X Box One's system options I overlooked this and it was silly of me but its an easy mistake to make when you don't know what your doing or talking about.

The other reason I overlooked it is because the internet sites and other forums say that there is no point in changing the colour depth as no content will support it anyways. That may be true but I still do notice a difference in overall picture quality.

It is worth noting however that I still can't get the blacks to be perfect per say and I can still see quite a bit of black crush when playing games though not nearly as prominent as before.

In the X Box calibration screen I still cannot see the closed eye no matter what adjustments I make which is curious.

The picture it self has way more contrast and is seemingly better but I still feel like setting the X Box set to standard and tv set to limited may produce better results even if those are not perfect either. On the standard setting I still notice a lil
bit of black crush but it is not nearly as noticeable as on the PC RGB settings which again is curious.

I like the PC RGB colour range much more as it is more vibrant and way more sharp (seemingly) but it almost seems like you lose details even when both are set up correctly.

Still if you think that your TV's picture can be better on your X Box One and you can't figure out why despite being convinced by different things across the web that certain settings are the way to go then you may want to give this a try.

I am going to experiment more today (as i did not get the chance yesterday) with standard and PC rgb settings and I'll see what I find and post an update later for those interested and who like this topic or are curious for their own tv setup.

I will post a follow up post to this with my findings later today or tomorrow.

Keep in mind that different TV's all will have different settings and you may need to do more tweaking then I have. My

TV is a Sony Bravia.

Also keep in mind that if your TV does not support full range or deep colour then thats okay too. There is no such thing as a crappy TV when your a gamer. You play on what you can afford and and set things up based on what your TV has. Not everyone can afford
to have top of the line brands and as long as you enjoy your games it doesn't matter what set up you have.

If you have questions feel free to message me and I'll do what I can to help as time permits.

Also If any one has a similar experience or feedback they would like to share then I'm all ears.

I will not balk at or turn down any advice or opinion. Thats what forums are for.

Cheers everyone.

Hope this post helps out anyone new to this console like I was just yesterday.

The X Box One once you understand it is quite the system.

Unfortunately, your info is wasted on the Riff-Raff that frequents this particular area of the forums.

This would be better appreciated in the A/V section.
