Xbox One // The infinite power of the cloud \\ 1+360=1 || #XB1NoDRM || DisKinected

So I've been running some black level tests on my Xbox One using this site in order to establish whether Full RGB is working properly.



With my Xbox One and my TV both set to 'Limited RGB' (16-235), I can only see 20+ range, i.e. crushed blacks.

Similarly, with my Xbox One and my TV both set to 'Full RGB' (0-255), I can only see the same 20+ range, i.e. crushed blacks.

Now normally I'd put this down to a screwed up TV calibration or something. But, if I plug my PS4 in using the same HDMI input and cable, everything works as it should on both Limited and Full RGB – and all the squares appear with both scenarios. Also, when using the pre-installed calibration app on Xbox One, their own black level test works as expected on both Limited and Full RGB, showing every single tile. However, the background changes colour slightly when the app is launched, suggesting to me something fishy is going on.

Anyone else had similar issues?

Yup output is fucked. Especially full rgb. Limited is broken too because while it is 16-235 the EDID info still shows that signal info is 0-255. This means that if you are using a TV with an auto setting for RGB levels (such as the Panasonic 60 series) the picture will be washed out because the TV expects 0-255.

That explains it. I have the same TV. How do I get the EDID info? Weirdly though, forcing the TV to limited doesn't remedy the issue.

The first tier ‘Host OS’ and the ‘to-the-metal- operating system present in Xbox One dubbed the ‘Host OS’ is an RTOS (Real Time Operating System) has complete control over the entire Xbox One hardware and resources. In Frank Savage’s words “… owns where everything and how everything works…. owns CPU…GPU”. This is your basic Xbox One Operating System. However the thing is , this particular OS only handles tasking and the security layer. It does not run any game or application. It does however host (in a non – hyper-v form) the ‘OS’ and the ‘Exclusive OS’, which is Windows 8 and the stripped down Windows 8.

The second tier ‘Shared Partition’ is occupied by Windows 8. This Operating System is “virtually indistinguishable” from the Windows 8 we know (and love?) , code wise. This particular Windows 8 handles all the basic functions of the Xbox One including the shell. Shared Apps are run here. It handles some major features of games such as networking and some audio.

The third tier ‘Exclusive Partition’ is the Exclusive OS, which in Frank Savage’s words is a “windows 8 that has gone on a massive massive diet…… lean and mean windows 8″. It has been hand tuned to remove any and all bottlenecks as well as bloatware. However this is the part which defines it as a ‘partition’ and not a virtual machine. All the Direct X draw calls go straight from the Exclusive OS down to the Host OS. It does not go through the full windows 8 ‘ shared partition’.

The launch line up has not been fully confirmed, but Forza Motorsport 5, Kinect Sports Rivals, Sunset Overdrive, Halo on Xbox One, Dead Rising 3, Ryse: Son of Rome, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Tomb Raider: definitive Edition, Thief and Murdered: Soul Suspect have been confirmed for Japanese release.

"As a funny note of color, part of the Japanese audience watching online on Nico Nico Doga found the statement pretty amusing, as you can see by the comments overlayed in the picture [picture not pictured]. For those unfamiliar with Japanese internet lingo “w” is their equivalent of our “lol.”
It’s worth mentioning that the Nico Nico audience is always quite caustic and sarcastic, so this isn’t too surprising."

Wozu noch eine PS4 kaufen? Ein Gerät wie google's chromecast sollte doch reichen zum streamen.

Ich hab irgendwo so einen Outlook-Account. ist das auch ein Microsoft-Account?

Könnte ich dann einen fremden Xbox-Live Account übernehmen, seinen Namen ändern und mit meinem Konto verknüpfen? Geht das bei der Xbox?

You can change the Microsoft account that's associated with your Xbox Live gamertag. Here's how:
