  1. Xbox One S lost most of functionality after switching display output to 4k


    Bought a new Sony 4k tv last night and when I hooked up the xbox one S it asked me if I wanted to change the display to 4k, so I naturally said yes. After that things slowly started to stop working. First thing I tried was an ultra HD bluray, but when
    it went to play that it said it couldnt read the disc. After that I noticed all the tiles from the home menu were gone and most of the icons on the left were grayed out. I can open some apps but it always says there is no internet connection even though
    it is connected. Also, if I try to enter the settings menu it immediately closes out the second i click on that menu. Anyone have any idea what might be happening?

    :)

  2. Visio 50 inch D1 not working

    Some 4K TVs with multiple HDMI inputs may only truly output 4K with select ports. It may be one of the HDMI ports of the whole set, or several. Consult your TV manual for those exact details.

    For 4K output, the Xbox One S must be connected to a port that supports 4K at 60Hz, with HDCP 2.2.

    Try out the different ports on your TV with your Xbox until you are able to set 4K as your resolution in the display settings.

    Xbox One S 4K output causing black flashing with Vizio PQ65-F1

    When I enable the 4K video output on Xbox One S it causes intermittent black screen flashing on my new Vizio PQ65-F1

    Set-up: Tivo Roamio>Xbox One S>Yamaha RX-A660BL>Vizio PQ65-F1 on HDMI 1 input on TV. All HDMI cables are high speed 18GBps.

    When I enable the 4K display video output setting on the Xbox One S the problem happens when watching TV or playing games.

    When I change it to 1080p the problem is resolved. Allow 4K setting is turned on and YCC 4:2:2: is turned off in advanced settings.

    Using a Roku through the receiver with 4K to the TV works fine no issues, the problem is only with Xbox One. on 4K video output.

    Is there any way I can play Xbox One S with 4K video output for TV watching and gaming on the Vizio PQ65-F1 without these HDMI handshaking issues?

    Thanks.

    Xbox One S lost most of functionality after switching display output to 4k

    Hey there!

    I'm sorry to hear about the issue. The first, and easiest, suggestion is going to be trying to

    power cycle
    your console. If the issue persists after that, the next thing you'll want to try is a

    factory reset
    of your console. You can keep your games and apps when you do this.

    Hopefully one of those doe the trick for you. Let us know!

    What are your thoughts with the Xbox One Slim?

    BluSwirl, I'm not sure what you are asking for but if it is if the Xbox One S will Output Display at 1080p for a 1080p HDTV, then yes it will.

    Keep in mind though, the Xbox One S will Output all Xbox One (and BC Games) at 4k Upscale as well. It is not just for Media but Games as well. This is Upscale though adn not Native. imo Upscale from 900p to 4k is going to look like butt, again better to wait
    for the Scorpio to come out for Native 4k (or at least closer).

    3D Blu-ray PLayback issues

    Set your XBOX One S to 1080p and not 4K, it should work fine.

    The XB is attempting to scale the image up to 4K, which makes it an invalid format.

    To set your resolution to a lower resolution but switch to 4K when 4K content is played:

    1. Open the guide and go to Settings > All settings > Display & sound > Video output and then make sure TV resolution is set to 720p or 1080p.
    2. Select Advanced video settings and make sure Allow 4K is checked.

    4k problems on xbox one s

    I am having a similar issue. My xbox one s and tv support all video functions, and when gaming or in the menus, my tv shows that the output is in 4k. As soon as I load up Deadpool 4k blu-ray, my tv shows that the output is 1080p.. Any ideas?

    Thanks.
