    Xbox constantly launching HDR games really dim


    Lately my Xbox has been launching games that are HDR at an extremely dim level. I have a TCL 6 series and the HDR works fine. There has been a couple of times in the past where I’d launch Gears 4 or NBA 2K and it’s extremely dark, but just going back home to the dashboard and re-opening the game would fix it and it would display the correct HDR.

    Now it’s launching the HDR games dim all the time, and going back to the home dashboard to reopen them is not solving the issue anymore. This has started happening only a couple of days ago.

    Any others experiencing this problem?

    Xbox One X dimming for some games and apps

    Found out HDR was the issue. If I turn off the HDR everything works fine. Anyone know why all of a sudden HDR would cause my XBox to dim?

    Xbox one S, Netflix dims screen when HDR is enabled

    I have the same issue but it happens with anything HDR including Forza Horizon 3. When content with HDR enabled kicks in the Xbox flashes black and then auto dims until the app that is using HDR is closed. It really sucks because it washes out the colors.
    The Netflix app on my TV with HDR doesn't do this so it rules out my TV as the issue. What's going on?

    Xbox One X HDR dimming problem!

    Hello,

    My xbox one x has an issue with loading games in HDR. When a game or netflix starts up. My screen dims dark. Like it fade away. All colours are dark and not bright.

    I have a 4K/HDR tv with a 10 bit panel. And it doenst work.

    I tried everything. Switching settings from my tv and xbox, hard reset, different HDMI 2.0 port and cabel. Only HDR in 8 bit mode doenst go dark. But I know my TV has an working 10 bit panel that works with other content beside my xbox one x.
    Same here. It looks as if you have screen dim on as a power saving feature. The problem with this bug is that dims the screen as soon as you start and play an hdr game or app.

    Xbox one S, Netflix dims screen when HDR is enabled

    I've had the same issue since the one S came out. The only way to stop the dimming effect is to shut off HDR in the Xbox settings. Not sure if this is an MS issue or a Netflix issue. But seeing as I can cast 4k hdr Netflix from my phone directly to the tv
    with no dimming, my money's on MS issue

    Same here and only recently ... I notice the HDR doesnt kick in as it usually does with other games (Screen dims when launching games). Menus are fine like yours, only when in the actual heist. I’m curious about what they’ll ask you to do, but for sure,
    you’re not alone with this issue.
