    Random White Flicker?


    With my new Xbox Series X I encounter randomly occurring screen flicker/white flash while playing games or watching videos in 4K/60Hz with HDR enabled. The flicker/flashing is only for a second and sometimes trigger the HDR notification on my TV. When I turn off HDR via the console this problem doesn’t occour. The console is connected to a PhilippsTV from the 5000Series which is 4K/60Hz/HDR enabled. This problem doesn’t occur with other hardware connected to the TV. Latest firmware is on both the TV and console installed. To me it looks like a handshake issue or intermittent connection between the console and TV while running at 4K/60HZ with HDR enabled.

    During my research on the internet I noticed that other users encounter similar problems at 4K/60Hz with HDR enabled. Is Microsoft going to address this problem with the next firmware update and do you have a workaround for me in the meantime so that I can use 4k/60Hz with HDR enabled?

    Thank you in advance for your support.

    :)

    That's a great sign! If it worked with the monitor, it means that this is not a hardware issue on your console. As I tought from the beginning, this is probably just an incompatibility with the TV firmware and the console firmware that is making HDR not being processed correctly.

    I would suggest you (if possible) to test it on another TV. But this is probably just an incompatibility with the Xbox firmware and your TV firmware that is making HDR not being processed correctly. I'm almost sure this is not a console hardware issue.
