Suddenly No Video

MrFsuga · Jul 1, 2020

Hello. Suddenly, my Xbox One S, which is less than 4 years old, stopped sending video to the TV. If everything is off and I power on the Xbox, it does eventually turn on the TV, as usual, so some signal is making it through the HDMI to the TV. I have
changed out HDMI cables twice. I have used each of the 4 available HDMI slots on the TV. I have tried normal power cycles and the cycles using the power button along with the smaller buttons on the front.

I am not even close to a heavy player (maybe 4 hours a week), so I can't imagine the product is so junky that I've already worn it out. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello Mr Fsuga,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your issue with a blank screen. We recommend trying out the
troubleshoot wizard for blank screen. Please be sure to try all of these
and let us know. If still having issue not seeing anything you may want to think on getting the console repaired. You can set one up on the
device support page.

Thanks,

Brad

Thanks. However, after checking out the page, obviously none of those problems cover my issue. Any further suggestions, beyond waiting however many of months it takes for the new PS5 or XboxX to come out and decide between them?

It's a common YouTube system glitch. It does that with any suddenly-popular new video. The likes and dislikes are accurate, but the views will say 301 until the view counter updates.

gave youtube another try and watched a video where the guy lifted his xbox and it suddenly worked. Tried it and it worked

if anyone wants to try it out

I'm having the exact same problem but I don't find either of those answers helpful. The movie was working for over an hour and it suddenly stopped saying the video was unplayable. The video is mp4 format, which is supposed to be supported, so why isn't it
working? What do I do?
