  1. Xbox One X HDMI Passthrough not working


    For the past week the HDMI passthrough on my Xbox One X has been working fine and suddenly today when I turned it on it was saying no signal(it was passing a DirecTV tuner through). I changed HDMI cables with a cable on a device that was working at the
    time and still wasn't working, ran my DirecTV tuner direct to the TV with same HDMI cable and it worked fine. Under settings it listed no HDMI connected, but if I unplugged the HDMI and plugged it back in it would go to "Connected" but then still no picture
    and it moved back to saying no HDMI connected. I updated the latest patch that was available, but that did not fix the problem. Seems like an issue with the HDMI slot on my Xbox One X given my troubleshooting but open to other ideas. Also tried passing
    through other devices(Apple TV and Roku and neither worked either)

    :)

  2. 1X degrades cable picture

    So are you saying you plugged your cable box into the HDMI passthrough on the One X?

    If the cable box is defaulting to a lower resolution when connected into the Xbox One X's HDMI passthrough, you should be able to adjust the display output in the cable box's settings menu.

    1X degrades cable picture

    When cable box goes through xbox one x the picture quality is degraded compared to when it is connected to tv straight. Not really resolution, theres more noise in the picture. Tried switching hdmi cables, inputs. Hopefully it can be corrected via software
    update.

  4. Xbox One X HDMI Passthrough not working

    As far as I can tell, you probably have a defective HDMI port on your console. If different cables and devices aren't working, then the problem must lie with the HDMI port.

    It sounds silly now, but have you tried a
    power cycle
    yet? This is one troubleshooting step that should never be missed, just in case!

    If that doesn't help, then it seems that your HDMI port is broken. You will want to return the console for an exchange with your retailer, or set up a repair with Microsoft (you can do that
    here).

    Pass through question

    Sorry, but the Xbox One must be turned on to enable HDMI passthrough.

    Xbox One X setup with Soundbar

    Hello JasonEvans16,

    If you have a 4K TV I would connect the Xbox One X HDMI to the TV. Then connect the optical out of the Xbox One X to your sound bar. That way you won't have to worry about degrading your video quality. Most sound bars don't have 4K passthrough.
