    HDR captures on Series X appear dark


    Hi,

    Just thought I’d share, as I found a workaround for the dark captures issue when enabling HDR display on Series X.

    If you go through the HDR wizard and when you next take a game capture and it’s dark, then go through the HDR wizard again. Mine was fixed by reducing the brightness slightly, so having the boxes appear slightly darker.

    Hopefully this helps someone?

    :)

    XBox Club: The screenshot images are to dark to see any detail

    Hey there

    Are you playing on xbox one S or X with HDR ? HDR can make screenshots very dark or appear too be dark try turning off the HDR You can still capture in 4k without HDR you can also still capture in HDR and toggle the HDR off and on when you view the game
    clip for each clip. Settings Preferences broadcast and capture

    Something else too also mention is that the graphics in sea of thevies are very dark. For example the screenshot you took is at night and in a storm. The game makes it hard too see in this case on purpose has it isnt ment too be easy too see when sailing
    at night in a storm. So it isnt really a issue just the fact that yes its dark because thats how its been intented too be

    Xbox Series X 4K HDR blu-ray to SDR bug

    Thank you for your answer, but I think you did not understand my question. To sum up: 4k doesn't matter.

    The problem is that hdr blu-rays work fine on ps5 (good colors).

    So the HDR to SDR conversion is correct. But on xbox series x, in comparison with ps5, the picture is too dark.

    So the HDR to SDR conversion on the xbox series x is bugged. I don't think it's a washout color issue.

    Is there something wrong with the long-form recording option in my Xbox One X? Unable to reliably record for longer periods.

    I have a very, very fast Samsung ssd. It was 200 bucks i think last year for 1 tb. Same issue with xbox one x. I only capture in 4k hdr. Beyond that its pointless. So now, i don't capture. Xbox series x..... come on down!

    Xbox Series X 4K HDR blu-ray to SDR bug

    Since my TV does not support HDR, I cannot activate it and it is disabled by default.

    As I really like Interstellar, it was offered to me in 4k without knowing that I do not have a 4k TV.

    What I mean is Xbox series X has a very dark image with HDR blu-ray. But when I watch HDR blu-ray on my PS5 I have no problem.

    I think Xbox series x is not converting HDR to SDR correctly but that the ps5 yes.

    On the other hand, blu-ray 4k comes out very well on a 1080p TV.
