  1. Xbox One brightness decreased? Help needed


    I was just watching Twitch and apparently it happened. I didn't even notice it until I exited Twitch. My home screen and everything too. I tried power cycling and messing around with the settings, and it shouldn't be my TV or HDMI cable/ports. Having the
    Xbox One on also makes features of the TV lose brightness (i.e the menu). Is it a power issue? Is it an issue with the Xbox One or the TV? I'm not sure. Google isn't any help and I can't do anything on the Xbox One because it strains my eyes. What do I do?

    :)

    Need help with Xbox one or monitor settings

    i have been playing the Xbox one on my computer monitor and for some reason the screen is really bright and white. While playing call of duty it is very hard to see people in the distance because it is dark and up close is white. My brightness is around 30 and my contrast is around 80. I have played with these settings and nothing seems too work. I have calibrated the monitor with my Xbox as well as my computer and still nothing works. Any suggestions?

    HELP

    The xbox doesnt have a brightness adjust setting. The games that you play however do. So I would either check the brightness on your TV or even check the brightness within the game your playing.

    This is mainly caused by your tv so check if there is a dimming effect caused by some "ambient light sensor" or the "dynamic contrast". Turn this setting off if it and also calibrate the brightness on your tv under normal conditions.

  5. Why would that only be an issue now? Nothing's changed whatsoever. It happened as I was on my Xbox.

    Coincidence is the main reason of everything that "seemingly" lacks causality. If you pass most of the time in front of tv while using xbox one console is normal that you will notice the change under such circumstances.

    Try to check your tv settings as I stated above.

  7. Ok so we figured it out. You were kinda right, but also kinda wrong. Well uh, apparently something happened with the power yesterday and I didn't notice and the TV went into some kind of power saving mode. We fixed it. So you were right about it being the
    TV just not in that way. Thank you for your help though!

    Xbox One brightness decreased? Help needed

    I was having the same issue but it only happened for about 30 seconds while watching youtube and it returned to normal. Does seem strange. Random question OP, what brand of tv do you use with your xbox? I ask because a family member was having the issue
    and we both have a samsung smart tv. Probably unrelated but just working on getting as many pieces of the puzzle as possible.

  9. Try going to Home > Settings > All Settings > Display and Sound > Video Output

    Then, make sure the TV resolution is compatible with your TV. If not, hit on Calibrate.

  10. Huh that's weird. My post didn't go through or something. *** lol, this was sorted out a bit ago. I'm really sorry guys. I resolved the issue. Turns out there was some sort of problem with the power yesterday while watching Twitch, and my TV went into some
    stupid power-saving mode.

  11. issue's resolved guys. thought I made a post here but it disappeared or something. I think clicking "Did this answer your question" on your own post deletes it or something. Well something weird apparently happened with my power that day and my TV went into
    some kind of power-saving mode.
