    Intermittent Invalid Format Error on LG Television when using Xbox One


    Hello,

    I have an Xbox one from launch. I have always had it connected to a 60" LED LG television 1080p. I play games, watch videos and watch a 1080p xfinity cable box passing through the xbox one. Up until about a week ago I had a harmon kardon avr receiver
    with hdmi inputs and outputs including an output to the tv with arc. I was getting intermittent invalid signal messages (with no picture) on the LG tv - sometimes from startup, sometimes when switching to the xbox one (on the receiver) and sometimes just
    out of nowhere while watching any sort of output. I had thought it might be hdmi cable problems so I upgraded those to latest spec - decent cables (I did not switch to $100 monster platinum things, just brands that seemed reasonable at non-ridiculous prices
    - tested with other devices with seemingly no problems). Cable changing had no effect, which did not surprise me. So I switched receiver from the hk to a denon (just looking at min features and price, no real focus on individual receiver connection track
    record) Anyway, switching recievers had an impact, the problem still occurs, but it can be circumvented by switching inputs quickly and switching back. With the hk, I _HAD_ to remove power and restart to remove the problem. The problem only seems to occur
    when using the xbox one - no matter the source (br disc, game, cable tuner pass-thru). It also occurs if the xbox one is directly connected to the tv. I have not observed the problem in any other context (various br devices, game consoles, cable tuner connected
    directly or via the avr receiver. I have not yet moved the xbox one to another monitor but I guess I will do so just to check the result. But I hoped someone may have a quick idea of what I am doing wrong with perhaps the xbox setup or whatever... Thanks
    for any help.

    Paul

    PS: I am certainly willing to post exact model numbers of all devices/cables etc if necessary - it just seems to be related to the xbox one most directly... I'm just posting from an inconvenient location at the second to get the exact details....

    :)

  2. 4K Set top Box - Directv

    I have an Xbox One X; I also have DirecTV; My television is an LG webOS TV UH6350; my DirecTV receiver is Model C61K-700. When I run my DirecTV receiver model C61K-700 directly to the HDMI input on my television (LG webOS TV UH6350 ) I am able to get 4K
    support from DirecTV. However, when I Set up live TV with my Xbox One X by Connecting my set-top box HDMI output to the Xbox One HDMI input I no longer get 4k support. I receive an error stating my television does not support 4K and it automatically switches
    to 1080P. Does the XboxOne X Connection to my set-top box only support 1080P? Also, is anyone else experiencing this when they connect a 4K set box to the Xbox One X?

    LG C1 invalid format

    That's coincidental then. As per the last post, it's only started happening since LGs last update! No problems whatsoever prior to that. It all points to that if anything. Plus only when game optimiser is turned on with 4K. Even in the xbox settings for TV details it even says your TV supports 4k 120hz dolby vision gaming but you may experience issues when this is switched on etc... That didn't come up before the update on the TV. However there were both an LG update and xbox update recently so clearly they haven't merged well at all. Thanks for the reply tho buddy đź‘Ť

    Same problems for me. Will Microsoft or LG atleast admit their is a problem? This needs to get fixed. I dont care who is at fault. Work together and get it fixed. Otherwise stop advertising your console as 4k120 with vrr.. because it doesnt work currently. And that is unacceptable after more than a year on the market.

    I have the same problem. On my 3rd LG c1. Tried different hdmi cabes and even have 2 xbox series x consoles and all have the same problem. I can game but can’t use Disney plus or most ither streaming apps without constant errors and also my consoles revert to 480p all the time.

    Yes that's exactly what I was saying! I'm so glad it's not just me. That sums it up then, it has to be a fault in the software/firmware then, thanks for your reply and sorry you're going through this aswell, it's so annoying
