Issue with notifications such as game requests and achievements when playing in HDR using...

Hey there,

We will be locking this older thread due to it being revived by a new post. If the issue is
on going, we recommend creating a new thread
detailing the issue at hand and any troubleshooting steps (if any) you’ve tried so far. We will be more than happy to answer any questions.

Thank you!

Did you manage to sort this my son is having this issue

Has this been picked up by anyone who can feed it back to the team responsible for fixing it?

This is an amazingly annoying bug and surely I cannot be the only person to experience it?

It quite literally takes you out the game while playing anything HDR to display a notification then again when the popup disappears

When playing HDR on the console it does not do this, its purely a PC issue displaying notifications when in HDR mode - I have tested it on two seperate displays and both show this issue, so its 100% with the way notifications are being displayed via the
Xbox companion app.

Should be easy to replicate to see what I am going on about? Maybe not many PC players use HDR capable screens to complain about this, but its definitely there and really annoying - keep having to play with notifications turned off, which isn't the best
way forward!

Hi,

The games are via the Xbox App (Beta) using game pass, but the notifications are handled by the Xbox Companion app, and that is where they are able to be turned on and off from.

My Windows install is fully up to date.

I have already left feedback via the feedback hub on this, but that seems like a dead end to be honest, so posted here to raise awareness of the issue as it should be easy to replicate and see for yourselves
