    Streaming issues with 4k/UHD content on Series X


    My Series X will not stream any UHD or 4k content. Let me clarify a bit, the audio is fine but the video is a jumbled pixelated mess. Not from Netflix, not from Amazon Video, not from Plex. Native apps on my LG CX OLED work fine. I thought it may be
    a TV issue but it has to be on the Series X. I've done a factory reset, I've changed the HDMI cable, I've changed inputs on my CX, I've made sure I have the most up to date firmware. Also tried wired/wireless as well. Nothing.

    Seriously at my wits end. Can anyone please help out?

    :)

    No 4K without HDR (xbox one x)

    you need hdr for 4k output

    I don't think you fully understand

    Uhd and hdr are required for 4k output

    Unless you have an xbox one s not a x

    You can't play in 4k

    4k is only for.movies or streaming sources which require both uhd and hdr

    But.xbox.one x will do 4k gaming

    philips 4k tv not displaying 4k in my xbox series x

    First you need hdmi2.1

    Second series s isn't a 4k console and wouldn't recommend it because of the design

    Because Irs not a 4k console it doesn't need UHD files making games smaller for the reduce space and power of the series s as thats how smart delivery is designed

    Most games will only do 960p

    It will struggle with anything above 1080p

    It can do 4k movie streaming but not gaming

    If you wanted 4k gaming you should've bought series x or xbox one x

    XBOX ONE S poor HDR support with UHD BluRays

    I'm having similar issue with HDR content especially through 4K UHD Blu-ray playback. There seems to be no fix for past 10 months. This is very poor of Microsoft to ignore. Now that Xbox One X is out, it too have HDR issues with 4K UHD player & Netflix app.

    Blurry 4k on Xbox one s

    Hi,

    The lower resolutions that the Series S typically does are for games only. As long as you are using a 4K TV and have the console set to 4K the One will play 4K UHD Blu-rays and 4K video streams in 4k.

    Received Xbox Series S back from service, no sound no 4k

    Well no it's not supposed to do 4k with most games and doing it with the series s would cause artifacts

    Most games will only run at 1080p

    If you are streaming you can do 4k as it doesn't require that much power

    The series x and Xbox one x ps5 and switch pro are 4k consoles

    The series s can only do 4k with certain titles and mostly ms ones and not very well

    Most games will be locked at 1080p or 1440p at most

    Smart delivery will not give you Uhd textures due to the space and proccessor
