It's just your tv changing to HDR mode. It's normal. I get something similar on my LG C7. Your receiver is just trying to figure out the signal as the tv switches.

Xbox One X |OT| The Scorpio King

Do you get a green flash ??
That might be my receiver making the flash. Maybe the XboxX when switching to HDR stops sending a signal for a second and makrs my receiver think weird
Yeah I registered and then restarted (for unrelated reasons) and got hit by the update prompt on startup
close your porn windows.
oh wait... nvm, nope no idea.
[mine's smooth as fkin silk]
Aye that's correct.
You can even download trials of games that may be in game pass before you activate it, maybe saves some time for people with not so great broadband.
Nope.
Only time mine makes a noise is during game installations. During play it sounds like an s or Pro in standby mode. I have played Halo 5, Gears 4, Evil Within 2, Titanfall 2, cod ww2 and F7 so far.
My friends are also saying the same thing.
I just casually strolled into my nearest Walmart on the way home from work and got one.
Now, PLEASE tell me that I can transfer data between systems directly, and I don't actually need an external hard drive or to set them up on my home network. They both have USB ports so it seems completely absurd to me to have such a runaround to transfer data.

I was so happy the day that my powerbrick fan died. Couldnt use instant on cause of that annoying fan.
Use Network transfer, you'll need both consoles hooked up on your home network work to do it.
You actually don't want to do this if you want automatic updates, downloading ect. You're turning the machine completely off every time instead of putting it in sleep mode. The reason you hear sounds when it's off is because it's not actually off yet, it's still doing stuff in the background
It had to be retuned...I gotta wait a week for a new console. It bit the dust before I could even play a game.
Is yours a Scorpio?
I need reassurance from Scorpio owners that I'm making the right choice sticking with it over the regular.
It's a RX 480 with higher clocks and more compute units, similar to a RX 580
Mine is dead silent, dead silent, no noise at all, only when it lets hot air out for 3 seconds.

Ok thanks. I just built a new PC with a 1070 and was wondering if I could've saved a lot of money and just purchased a One X.
Seeing how that noise neve went away, i prefer it this way.
Either i have great hearing but it was annoying.
It does take too long to start though.
I have a pretty big problem. The Xbox One X is always outputting a signal through HDMI to my HDMI Switch, this makes it impossible to use the switch for both my PS4 Pro and my Xbox One X. The PS4 Pro when turned off does not output anything to the HDMI Switch, The Xbox One X however, does. This means if I use the PS4 while the Xbox One X is off, i cant get a signal during HDR games as their isnt enough bandwidth. Anybody have a solution to this?
How's airflow while standing the console? To me it would kill air intake from one side would it not?
But it was probably making noise because it was actively downloading updates for games. The noise would stop once that process is done.
Is the Xbox in instant on mode? Maybe switch to power save if it is.
Okay, that's what I'm doing, but it is rather annoying.
ANYWAY, is it just me or is this thing the exact same size and shape as a PS2? I got major flashbacks holding it for the first time.
Oh, my atmos headphones are 100% USB
I think it says you can use the 3.5mm connection
The 3.5mm port on an Xbox controller is much better in quality and codec than the bt 2.2 audio on a DualShock 4
Just get an external. You are gonna need it anyway and they are so cheap now.
It was in Instant on Mode, and yeah turning it off seems to be the way to fix it. It still takes an annoyingly long time to stop sending a signal, and the start up time is quite long
So I was lurking on the AVSforums KS8000 thread and came across this :
I always thought that you had to select 10 bit manually but evidently not.

Oh, do you have the headphones connected to the USB port on the Xbox? Mind linking the set you own?
Any LG B6/C6/B7/C7 owners?
Do I set my range to PC RGB I remember reading a huge reddit post and settings on our sets saying leave it at standard
Which I thought was weird since our TVs as far as I know can do the full range of 0-255 for black and light levels

If your screen is flashing, there is a good chance you still have Motionflow and/or other image processing enhancements enabled in HDR mode. I too have a Sony TV and faced that same issue until I disabled everything. Also, HDR and SDR have separate settings and you cannot modify the HDR settings unless you are currently displaying HDR content.
My Scorpio edition just arrived from Amazon! What a wild ride this has been from all the issues with my pre-order from Best Buy.
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/plantr...os-for-xbox-one-black/5923415.p?skuId=5923415
This is the set I own, just released a few months ago and directional sound playing origins creeps me out due to how atmos works for headphones
Amazon failed me and Best Buy delivered. It's crazy how people after affected differently by carriers.
Don't have an Xbox One Two or a 4K TV (yet) but does this mean that you should leave it set to 8 bit all the time then?
So l redeemed the 14 day free gold trial code..and when l try to play Black Ops 3, it won't let me play online and keeps sending me to a page to sign up for gold?
True, I've loved every console launch but there is something magical with what MS/Xbox have done for all the BC titles and having a solid list of enhanced games while revisiting ones you've played before. There's even games I held off playing until the X1X launched e.g. Witcher III and Quantum Break. It's brilliant having a massive library to call upon. I'm blown away by the clarity of this console, the games its running and I'm yet to bring home a new 4K TV still.
Can't wait for some titles over the course of the next 1-2 years as they get more out of dev cycles for this console.
So yeah, I'd recommend it at any price.
I picked QB up for AUD$28 as 50% with gold. This screenshot finally tipped me over the edge and I get to play QB in all its glory for the first time.
Shit yeah, this game is insanely beautiful. Imma do a campaign play through for this and TF2.
