Xbox One S visual problem

Cubemation1 · Jan 30, 2019

So, while i am playing a game, or watch Youtube, a 1-2 frame visual glitch occurs at random. This does not occur very often, maybe 1 or 2 times during my play session, and most of the times, it won't even happen.

I don't have any footage of it, but i'll try my best to describe it.

So, when this glitch happens, my entire screen displays a mixture of Red, Green, Blue, White and Black pixels in a pattern simmiliar to a noise map. As i said, this presists for 1-2 frames, dissapears, and then everything works as intended.

It's not a big issue, but it worries me.

If you know why this occurs, and how i can fix it, please let me know. Any help is much appreciated.

This issue might be cause by several reasons:

The HDMI cable is faulty.

Inspect the HDMI cable for damage. Also verify that the cable is plugged in and seated properly.
There's a device between your Xbox One and your TV.

Plug the HDMI cable directly into your TV. If this fixes the issue, you can configure your video settings later. For more information, see

How to adjust the display settings on your Xbox One console.
Your Xbox One can't determine the resolution of your TV.

The Xbox One X and Xbox One S consoles send digital audio and video signals to your TV through the HDMI cable, and your TV sends signals back to the consoles in constant two-way communication. One of the messages the TV sends is extended display identification
data (EDID). The EDID describes the modes, resolutions, and refresh rates that the TV supports. The Xbox One acknowledges the EDID and then sends the picture at the best possible resolution for the TV.

Hi,

A common problem when running newer games on such older hardware like the original Xbox One and Xbox One S. The Xbox One lacks the processing and graphics power of the Series X and S consoles. I'm afraid there isn't anything you can do to improve things
on your Xbox One. You'll need a Series X or S to get a better visual experience.

Luckily if or when you buy a Series X or S, your game will be updated to the Series version for free.

I think the only real visual difference with the Xbox One S is that it can display in HDR - but your TV needs to be able to support this.

This is an incorrect assumption. You can insert an xbox one disc and download updates that may improve visuals and frame rates on Xbox Series X/S but in order to play you still need the disc unless you own the digital version of it.

Xbox Series X will utilize the Xbox One X version of enhancements while Xbox series S will use the Xbox One S enhancements.

You will not get a free game by borrowing or renting a physical version of a game and installing it on Xbox Series X/S.
