    Xbox colour depth


    Does anyone know if the xbox series x auto changes colour depth when showing HDR content?

    ive been told to leave colour depth at 8-bit and the xbox will auto change to 10-bit when showing HDR content.

    has anyone got any evidence if this?

    :)

    any tips for xbox one setup?

    This is what it says about the pixel count.

    Adjust display settings.

    Colour depth

    Colour depth is the number of bits of colour data that are used to display each pixel. True colours use 24 bits of colour data to represent the three RGB colours. If you know that your TV supports Deep Colour, you can select a higher colour depth.

    Display and sound issues

    I've now managed to get it working by setting the Colour depth to 36 bits per pixel (Settings > Display & sound > Colour depth). Here's my display/picture settings in full:

    TV Resolution: 1080p

    TV Connection: HDMI (auto-detect)

    Colour depth: 36 bits per pixel

    Colour space: PC (RGB full)

    Hope that sorts it out for you too!

    Xbox Series X with LG C1 --> Screen goes black for a about a second (audio still there) every 5-20 minutes

    What colour depth setting is your xbox?

    And is your TV in pc mode?

    HDMI issue and AV receiver

    Try setting the Colour depth to 36 bits per pixel (Settings > Display & sound > Colour depth). I had the exact same issue as you, right down to it working intermittently, on my Pioneer VSX-527, but changing that setting has fixed it for me. Here's my display/picture
    settings in full:

    TV Resolution: 1080p

    TV Connection: HDMI (auto-detect)

    Colour depth: 36 bits per pixel

    Colour space: PC (RGB full)

    Xbox one Settings Questions

    Hi.

    it's down to preference, I would stick with colour depth 24bit and colour space standard, leave the allow 50Hz and 24Hz unchecked.
