    Xbox turns black when switching games?


    I got a new 4k tv and everytime i switch games or apps it goes black, some say that its the tv but i can access the tv home screen fine on its snapdragon cpu, its the xbox that goes black.

    Update: I found the problem, in video modes in the Xbox settings there is an option to auto switch the tv to low latency mode, which should be off for hardcore gamers with the game setting calibrated for the low latency. Now my games switch instantly.

    :)

    Xbox turns black when switching games?

    Hello! I'm John P an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. This support request can only be handled in English and I hope that is okay with you.

    Please try the steps below and see if it helps;

    1. Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.

    2. Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 10 seconds.

    Important Be sure to wait at least 10 seconds. This step resets the power supply.

    3. Plug the console power cable back in.

    4. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on.

    If it still doesn't work, please try to refresh your operating system and delete all potentially corrupted data that restricts you from using your console normally without deleting your games or apps.​​​​​​​

    Note: Make sure that you know your account logins before doing this step. Also, this will remove all your Home Xbox associations.

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    2. Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info > Reset console.

    3. On the Reset your console? screen, you'll select Reset and keep my games & apps.

    Not auto-switching to HDMI input source

    Mine too in all cases but this one, X1 sends turn on command (black fast switch like when you switch source) and then it goes to TV that is the default source. If I turn on the TV using its own remote, it uses the last source. If I turn on the blu-ray player
    it switch to its HDMI input source.

    It is the X1 the one not switching to its source and the only one that switchs to TV source if I set the "Turn on TV" HDMI in console options.

    Is my Xbox Series X or my LG C3 48 inch faulty? Or software issue? The games?

    Hi,

    Now I've have started to have new issues. Often when I turn on my Xbox, on my tv appears no signal or Just Black screen. Is happening often. I changed HDMI Port andcable HDMI. Doesnt make difference. One strange thing though I noticed once. My TV game optimizer turned off freesync AMD and switched tò vrr g-sync. When this happened, the freesync was on and the screen went black and the TV showed a refresh rate that changed in a matter of second from 60 hz to 650hz tò 330hz and so on until switched tò vrr gsync. What does this mean?
