    Xbox One Losing TV Signal


    I am also having this problem with Xfinity. I ultimately ended up disconnecting the cable box and plugging it straight into the television and the cable has been fine since. Is there any timeline on the fix for this? It's been over 6 months and withoutbthis
    ability, I should have stayed with the 360.

    :)

    Xbox One losing TV signal

    So for those of you who are having the same problem I was having, I feel stupid for it taking me so long to think this through but I hope you all will benefit from my logic. I am in San Diego California and have Cox as my cable provider. The box that my
    cable goes through is Scientific Atlanta model Explorer 8240HDC. I have an Onkyo HT-R580 receiver that my PS4 and Xbox1 both go through. The Signal flow for cable goes Cable box, HDMI, Xbox1, HDMI, Receiver, HDMI, TV. My Xbox1 played fine, but when I switched
    to TV it would play for a few seconds, freeze, play for a few seconds, then notify me that it lost signal. Clearly to me now, the signal from the Xbox1 through to the TV was good, but the signal loss was between the cable box and the Xbox1. I used the HDMI
    cable that came with the Xbox1 to go from the Xbox1 to the receiver, and the one that came with the cable box to go to the xbox1. I replaced that cable with a 18Gbps Monster cable from Fry's to see if that would fix the problem, and it has completely. Apparently
    the free HDMI cable that came with my cable box was not very good (Go Figure). I still wish Xbox would realize that gamers tend to like nice tech and would enjoy TV in 1080i and not 720p, but at least the TV isn't glitching anymore. Hope this helps.

    XBOX ONE LOSING TV SIGNAL

    No, but a lot of people have theories and apparently Microsoft is aware and looking into it, but don't expect an immediate patch. There are a few other posts in this forum with lots of responses about people with similar issues. You're not alone.

    Reducing to 720p helped me since launch. I had an occasional 1-2 second video pause when I changed channels, but not often enough that it really interfered.

    Now with the latest update, I have to unplug/replug to get it to recognize the tv signal.

    Same boat as others. Worked most of the time prior to May update. Scientific Atlanta Explorer 8300 to Xbox one to tv. Straight forward. Cable box set to 720p only and 4:3 ratio. Like recent guy, mine will connect fine with tv app IF I leave my cable box
    on ALL the time. If I let Xbox control cable box on and off it almost always resets box to 480p after initial lost signal screen. Come on guys...you are going backwards!!! It was bad enough that Xbox couldn't handle my leaving cable box on 1080I but now 720p
    doesn't even stay connected. Something needs to be done to boost signal from cable while using instant on mode. Anyone find a solution.....Please share.

    Think my prob is the worst, TV was working fine untill the update, tryed tuning in my virgin media box since then the TV dosent work, when you try to set up TV it says my brand isent found (toshiba) which is clearly listed, same when I try to set up the
    digi box (Virgin media) and can't even get into the display settings just got kicked out, something seriously wrong, mys been like this over a week now.

    So my Motorola VIP 2250 replacement from AT&T started this problem. I "think" there was a release this weekend or week, to help fix this but I am not 100% sure, I did notice there is an option now for the TV and One Guide to no longer turn off the DVR when
    you turn off the Xbox. I think that was one part of my solution, disabling that power off feature.

    The second is I upgraded the standard HDMI cable it comes with and what I had going to my TV with these from monoprice:

    www.monoprice.com/Product

    I noticed now I do not even get a delay and do not have to do the "power save mode" where it reboots. I can put it into sleep and as soon as it wakes up, the TV is already going in the menu. This is even after having it sleep all night last night.

    I hope this helps, but it help confirms a suspicion I had where the signal gets to low when the DVR goes into power save mode and not enough data is being received by the Xboxone. The new cables ensure the data is completely transferred now matter how little,
    and has the bandwidth to send the cable commands through HDMI to the PVR
