    Screen Distortion


    Hi. I have been having this issue for quite some time, but it seems to progressively get worse. I get some sort of strange screen distortion with my XBox One console. Many green and white pixels flash on my screen and sometimes remain present, as well as
    images from the dashboard flickering or just disappearing entirely. This only happens on the dashboard or while searching through apps such as Netflix, StarzPlay, the Marketplace, etc. However, when I start a show/movie or XBox One game, it totally stops.
    I have tried different HDMI cables, different TVs (Using a Vizio LCD mainly), hard resets, unplugging the console and waiting. I really have no idea what may be causing this problem or even what would fix it. But if anyone could offer me any kind of insight,
    that would be great. Thanks!

    :)

    Hey again Dotchy! Thanks for getting back to me again!

    I can definitely understand that this might be difficult to get a video of since it's so unpredictable. If do you get a video of it, try uploading it to your OneDrive and send me a Private Message with the link to it.

    To send me a Private Message, just click the envelope under my post. Be sure to include your Gamertag in the subject so I can quickly identify it's from you.

    I'll be standing by to hear from you! ^_^

    Hey there Dotchy! Let's see what we can do to get things sorted.

    To start off, I suggest performing a hard reboot of your console. To do that:

    • Press and hold the power button on the console for 5-10 seconds until the console powers off completely.
    • Wait at least 60 seconds.
    • Unplug the console from the power outlet.
    • Wait at least 60 seconds.
    • Plug the console back into the power outlet.
    • Wait at least 60 seconds.
    • Power the console on and try connecting again.

    Let us know how that goes! We'll be standing by to hear back from you! =)

    Hey again Dotchy! Thanks for the video clips! That's exactly what I needed so I could see what you see.

    I have a couple follow-up questions for you to help us understand your setup:

    1. Do you have a PVR (Personal Video Recorder) or Capture Card of any kind hooked up to your console?
    2. What is the exact setup you've used for your Xbox One console? What is plugged into the console or into the TV?

    We'll be standing by to hear back from you! ^_^

    I have the same issue when I play any dvds. The screen goes all jumpy. Makes you feel sea sick. Even the home page dies this when the dvd is playing. But is OK with blue rays. Any ideas on how to solve this issue. As don't really want to use the other games
    console for this. (ps4). Xbox one is the better one.
