    Washed out colours with backwards compatible


    Recently I purchased a Benq monitor (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B079HV1TDC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and have been playing my xbox one perfectly along with a few backwards compatible games such as MW2 and Skate 3. These have all
    been working perfectly until I noticed today that when I play Skate 3 it switches my monitor into HDR mode where the colours appear to be washed out and quality of the image is awful.

    Im not sure what to do, I've tried messing with my monitor settings however HDR becomes locked to ON when playing skate and I've also tried reinstalling skate but neither has worked. Im not sure if its an xbox issue or a monitor issue but I find it strange
    how its only effected by 1 game I play.

    My monitor works perfectly in HDR mode for anything else I'm doing whether its on xbox one, other 360 games or connected to my mac.

    Any help or suggests to solve this would be great as I'm completely baffled and I would like to play skate again in its normal mode.

    this explains my issue perfectly:

    Catherine's blacks are washed out..

    so Catherine has terribly washed out blacks when played on Xbox one. This seemingly is the only backwards compatible game to have messed up black levels. Why is this?

    Surely we can get an easy patch to fix this? Makes me wonder if anyone actually tested this game, because it doesn't have this issue when played on a 360.

    Washed out colours with backwards compatible

    This might be an issue with the game Skate 3 itself and how it appears in HDR..I would be curious if others were experiencing a similar issue....

    the thing is, it worked perfectly a week ago - i dont know what happened. my monitor settings are fine and MW2 plays perfectly. Ive seen on the forums that this has happened to other people with a single game and not others.

    I came up with a semi solution by turning HDR off on my xbox which makes skate look normal again however doing this then means im not actually getting HDR and just standard image but this still looks better than when HDR is on.

    also when skate loads my monitor goes black for a second as if its adjusting and then pops up in the corner that HDR is now turned on

    Xbox series S color washed out

    I have a 1080p 144hz monitor, when it is set to 120fps then the colours looks washed out, on 60fps it looks fine. I only play Warzone on 120fps but have to set it to 120fps before launching the game and it makes the colours look washed out. Frustrating as the game does not give me the 120fps mode if not set on the Xbox and like I said it makes the colours look washed out

    put your brightness all up for the best graphics

    turning it up too high will wash out the colours and ruin the textures , and dark areas and night scenes will be ruined
