Please can anyone help me. I recently went from PS3 to owning the Xbox One and the performance of Netflix seems poor in comparison. It almost looks like it's a lower frame rate and judders during streams.

My Samsung plasma TV is outputting the picture at 1080P at 60hz.

I'm very fussy about picture quality and a little disappointed. Playing games on the Xbox One the picture quality is amazing in my opinion.

I did a bit of googling to get a resolution and noticed when the machine first released there were problems and many people say they were ironed out.

Please any suggestions would help. I'm a Virgin Media customer on the 152Mb service and use 5G wifi connection on the SU2.

In the Xbox options there is a setting to make everything TV related to 50hz otherwise the picture would judder when watching broadcast TV, i guess this maybe the issue with netflix but not sure.

This option is already ticked in the display settings. Thank you for the suggestion though

I have run out of ideas, can you try wired to see if the problem goes away as i dont have any issue streaming wireless on 5ghz with netflix although the xbox is only about 10 feet from my SH2.

I will check after work whether my TV reports as 60hz or 50hz when using Netflix and report back unless someone beats me to it.

Another thing you can try is a hard reset, hold the power button on the console for 10 secs to force a full boot and also try different wireless channels in the SH settings.

I tried the wired connection to no avail. Really odd as Netflix worked great on the PS3. I've done a full reboot and run the network test in the Netflix options. Funny how my wife doesn't see it but I do. I feel it has some thing to do with the display being 1080P @ 60Hz but there's no option to change this as I'd like to try 1080P @ 50Hz.

Just done some tests on mine, and although mine doesn't display when it is in 50-60hz i can tell when it is switching from one to the other based on the 1080p HDMI message popping up.

So based on my results below and the fact that you get the same wired which rules out wireless i conclude that either your TV has an issue with 1080p 60hz or there is an issue with your broadband not being as stable as it should be.

My:
Netflix is displayed at 60hz 1080p
Xbox menu and games run at 60hz 1080p
TV broadcast is displayed at 50hz 1080p

Just had a thought though, look in your TV settings for things like motion flow and have a play, failing that borrow another TV or even another HDMI cable.

I'll have a look through my TVs display options and have a play. Thanks for the advise.

Windows 10 should be coming to the Xbox One previewers in the next few weeks.

I've recalibrated the whole picture displaying settings for both the Xbox One and my TV and it's improved it well. Sitting in front of my TV starring at it for what felt like hours adjusting and tweaking. It's seems nicer on the eye now.

SnoopZ · 10-09-2015, 22:57

I've never had a problem with my TV picture calibration luckily, just a case of plugged it in and switch on if I remember correctly, what problems did you have?

alexcopeland · 11-09-2015, 06:37

One thing I'd advise to double check is whether your TV supports the higher deep colour modes. Simply selecting the highest value doesn't always give the best results. Secondly, most of my TVs processing gave a poorer picture and by turning of a majority of settings for dynamic contrasting and edge enhancing made the picture better. Finally tweaking the c olour, hue, brightness and contrast for around an hour did the trick.

Windows 10 deployment on the Xbox One is hopefully going to start this week with invites starting to be sent out to some Xbox One Preview members.
