  1. Xbox One X using computer monitor via HDMI cable


    I plan on plugging my Xbox One X to my computer monitor using a HDMI cable (said cable plugged into the one marked "HDMI out to TV"). If my desktop speakers are plugged into my tower while my hdmi cable is plugged into my xbox one x. i am assuiming there will be no sound. How do i get my xbox one x to utilize my speakers? Does my speakers' cable need to plug into the IR port in the back of the xbox one x or is there something else that is needed? I notice an HDMI port marked "HDMI in from SAT/Cable". Is this a place to utilize another HDMI for audio?

    :)

    Xbox Series X 1440p Monitor

    monitor for Xbox Series X at 1440p 120hz. If you have trouble getting 1440p 120hz on the Series X using the provided Microsoft hdmi cable, try switching it with the one that came with the monitor. At first I could not get 120hz using the provided hdmi cable that came with the Xbox, but switched it to the one that came with the monitor and the option for 1440p 120hz finally became selectable.

    Looks like.the monitor is picky

    As it has issues with ps5 and series x

    Odd it requires a hdmi 2.0 rather then a hdmi 2.1 cable

    That was a comment by another user also Bestbuy has Lenovo experts in ther

    How do you enable FreeSync?

    Hi HeyBlanket,

    How are you connecting to your monitor? Are you passing your HDMI through any adapter or receiver before it hits the monitor? Can you let us know what make / model monitor you have? It looks like the monitor has to be Freesync 2 with HDMI 2.1. If you're
    passing your HDMI through any device like a receiver, switch, or converter, I would recommend trying with the Xbox One X plugged directly into the monitor.

    let us know!
    Thank you for replying. My monitor is an Asus VP28UQG. The X1X is connected directly to the monitor via high speed HDMI cable.

    New gaming monitor

    I'm saying that HDMI to displayport adapters are pointless to use, and if you were to use one , you'll still only be getting 60hz.

    you want to connect the HDMI port of the Xbox console to a HDMI port on the monitor or TV for the best outcome,

    because the Xbox One X does not have a displayport on the console, you can't go displayport to displayport,

    so the only choice is HDMI to HDMI, i personally would not go HDMI from the console to displayport on the monitor via an HDMI to displayport adapter,

    when connecting to a monitor it's best to go straight...

    HDMI to HDMI

    or

    Displayport to Displayport

    never

    HDMI to Displayport via an adapter.

    HDMI Cables

    First, I want to thank you for trying to help me. Its driving me insane on how I might have just wasted 200 dollars.

    You are correct that one of the cables must be connected to your television, but there are three cables that need to be attatched in total. One from the monitor to the capture card via HDMI. Another from the elgato to a computer via usb. A third one connected
    from the elgato to the xbox via an HDMI. When I have it plugged in it is supposed to get video from the TV and audio from the xbox, the elgato just sends it a to my computer. My xbox thinks that it is supposed to be used for connection instead of video feed.
    Is there a setting that I can use to fix this? Please answer me back
