360 hdmi help

4 January 2014

Hi guys,

Got a problem with my Xbox 360 and TV not showing a picture.

It's just a black screen when I plug in the hd cable but I can tell the Xbox working fine by ejecting disc.... I have tried 3 or 4 different cables which all work with my PS4.

It worked fine on my big 50 inch tv but that broke and now using a 32 inch.

Any help would be very appreciated

Do you have space on the back of your TV to try HD composite? Or just composite at that because I would just make sure your box is giving out a signal and double check the settings

Your Xbox may be putting out a higher definition than your 32-inch tv is capable of. You might have had it at 1080p so my suggestion is find a friend/relative who have a better tv, take it over and make the adjustments on the console/display settings and then take it back home and enjoy.

Also you may want to reset the display settings - check this article near the bottom :http://support.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-360/system/image-on-your-tv-is-unclear#40598191531f4657ba71962cb6d90e19
