I need help with my Pioneer SC-95 playing HDR signals from my XBOX One X to my Sony 4K TV. I have set the SC-95 to 4:4:4 and can get the xbox to play an HDR game, but once I switch back to the home screen of the xbox the signal will drop and the screen will go blank. I cannot get anything to come back on unless I remove and replace the HDMI cables. I have upgraded the HDMI cables from the "high speed" walmart brand to the Cinnamon cable from Best Buy, with no change in results. I feel like there is some kind of glitch within the SC-95 receiver, but am not sure. Could it be related to the ARC-HDMI from the TV to the receiver? I have the problems regardless of which input the XBOX is plugged into, and even when not using the ARC output.
 
Solution
Does the problem occur if the Xbox is connected directly to the TV? Use the cable that connects the receiver to the TV to check.
ARC isn't going to affect this but do try a different HDMI input on the TV.
Try 4:2:0 instead of 4:4:4
