    Xbox One with Dell S2716DG Monitor


    I have a Dell S2716DG Monitor for PC gaming but I want to use my Xbox on it too (when my girlfriend comes over she uses the TV for her Xbox while I want to use the monitor for mine) but when I plug it in, there's just a blank screen, the backlights are on
    but no image.

    The monitor recognises that there is a HDMI plugged in but nothing is working.

    I have contacted Dell and they have been trying to sort it but they recommended that I ask on here to see if anyone has had the same problem or if anyone knows if I have to change settings for it to work.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    :)

    No More Video Output to Monitor

    Hi.

    I'm going to try and be as detailed as possible with this one. About to pull hair out.

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Materials On-Hand:

    Xbox 360 Slim (The Culprit)

    Xbox 360 Pro with HDMI Output (Alternate Test Subject)

    Laptop Computer with HDMI Output (Alternate Test Subject)

    HDMI-HDMI Cable (Works Fine)

    HDMI-DVI Cable (Works Fine)

    Dell 2408WFP Monitor (Has DVI Port, HDMI Port, Composite Video Port)

    Dell 2208WFPt Monitor (Has DVI Port)

    40" Sony LCD TV (1080P Capable)

    60" Sony LCD TV (1080P Capable)

    ----------------------------------------------------

    History:

    - For the past 7 months, I've had my Xbox 360 Slim connected to my Dell 2408WFP Monitor with an HDMI-HDMI Cable. No issues.

    - A couple of weeks ago, I lent my xbox to a friend a couple doors away. He has a Dell 2208WFPt monitor, which does not have an HDMI Input. I gave him an HDMI-DVI cable to use, and it worked on the monitor with no issues.

    - When I got my xbox back, it refuses to output a video signal to my Dell 2408WFP Monitor via HDMI-HDMI or HDMI-DVI. Nothing I do can get it to output to my monitor (which it was working fine with for the 7 months prior to me hooking it up via HDMI-DVI to
    the Dell 2208WFPt).

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Configurations Tested:

    Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-HDMI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor = NO Video/Audio

    Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
    NO Video/Audio

    Laptop Computer + HDMI-HDMI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor = Video GOOD (Proves that 2408WFP HDMI Port and HDMI-HDMI cable both work)

    Laptop Computer + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
    Video GOOD (Proves that 2408WFP DVI Port and HDMI-DVI Cable both work)

    Xbox 360 Pro (Borrowed from Friend) + HDMI-HDMI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
    Video/Audio GOOD

    Xbox 360 Pro (Borrowed from Friend) + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
    Video/Audio GOOD

    Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2208WFPt Monitor =
    Video GOOD (Proves that Xbox 360 Slim still outputs DVI Signal OK)

    Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-HDMI Cable + 40" Sony LCD TV =
    Video/Audio GOOD (Proves that Xbox 360 Slim still outputs HDMI Signal OK)

    Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-HDMI Cable + 60" Sony LCD TV = Video/Audio GOOD

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Troubleshooting Options Attempted:

    Factory-Reset Dell 2408WFP Monitor

    Turning Display Discovery Off

    Turning Display Discovery On

    Attempting to Reset Display Settings with Right-Trigger + "Y" Button upon Boot

    Hooking Xbox 360 Slim up to Dell 2208WFPt monitor, setting a lower resolution, and hot-swapping to Dell 2408WFP monitor (Both HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI Cables)

    "Blindly" Navigating Menus while hooked up to Dell 2408 WFP monitor (HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI) to modify Display Discovery settings and selected resolutions

    Hot-Swapping between Xbox 360 Pro (Borrowed from Friend) and
    Xbox 360 Slim

    Hot-Swapping between Laptop Computer and
    Xbox 360 Slim (HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI cables)

    ----------------------------------------------------

    With all of the above, my Dell 2408WFP Monitor immediately goes into Power-Save Mode when the
    Xbox 360 Slim is hooked up to it. The monitor works with another xbox, a laptop, and via multiple cables. Therefore I know that the ports are good, the cables are good, and the monitor is good.... but it refuses
    to display anything from my particular Xbox 360 Slim. Ever since being hooked up to the Dell 2208WFPt monitor via HDMI-DVI, it simply will not work with the Dell 2408WFP Monitor. I cannot think of any other options.
    The Xbox 360 Slim works fine on any other display I try it on. Another Xbox works fine on the Dell 2408WFP Monitor with both the HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI cables. As a reminder, the
    Xbox 360 Slim worked just fine with the Dell 2408WFP monitor for 7 months via the HDMI-HDMI cable.

    I appreciate any assistance that can be provided. I don't know what else to do. It's very mysterious. Thanks.

    Hey there,

    Try out our steps on our Blank Screen Troubleshooter to see if the steps help! You may be able to get around this by booting your Xbox One console to low resolution mode. If I understand correctly your monitor is 2560x1440, which is a resolution the Xbox
    One does not support at this time. This is to keep in mind just in case the image is not optimal.

    Keep us posted!

    Unable to play at 120hz with 144hz gaming monitor

    Hi,

    I'm sorry to advise that this monitor does not support 120Hz over HDMI. This feature is only available via display port, which the Xbox does not support.

    You can see this in the manual
    here

    When trying to change refresh rate from 60hz to 120hz I get a black screen then it reverts back to 60hz

    Hi,

    It won't work sorry. The Dell Dell S2716DG doesn't do 120Hz over HDMI


    [​IMG]


    I'm also pretty sure HDMI to display port is a dead end. A cheap HDMI to DP won't work, it has to be an 'Active' HDMI to DP, but also, I'm pretty sure the output device has to be DP capable (Xbox isn't) as well as
    the input.

    You're going to need a different monitor.

    The best advice is to check reviews and look at the online manual's. Only if the manual says 120Hz over HDMI will it work at this refresh on an Xbox One.

    xbox to dell monitor

    you will need one of these:
    www.xbox.com/.../Xbox360GVGSHDCable     and you will need a Y cable that converts the 2 red and white male RCA plugs into a 1/8" headphone plug (like the one you plug into a MP3 player or CD player) that will plug into your LINE in jack on your PC sound card.
