    Screen dims while watching tv


    I have a day one edition xbox with kinect, and lately the screen will randomly dim. It dims the same, as when you give a voice command, but no kinect listening prompt comes on the screen. It darkens to where you almost can't see the picture anymore. To
    un dim, I actually will say "hey cortana" and then it will un dim and bring up the listening prompt. Anyone else having this issue? I have hard restarted and re calibrated the kinect, but it seems like a software issue.

    :)

    Hey there Sverre054,

    What game or app are you using when you see this happen? Do you have a controller connected to the console and if so is it turned on?

    Let us know!

    Screen goes dim while watching tv

    I have this issue on my console too. Found a workaround that works for me, thought I'd share.

    Ive found that the screen dimming thing only starts happening after I've been in a game and then gone to watch tv.

    It doesnt happen if i go straight into oneguide from startup. If i play a game and then want to watch tv afterwards i restart my system and go straight into oneguide.

    Its a bit of a pain still but not as bad as having to nudge the controller every 15 mins
