Curved Monitor and Xbox One Setup
Setup
- Alienware 34inch curved monitor (AW3418DW)
- first gen Xbox One.
Problem
When I try to play Xbox on my monitor it displays in what seems to be full-screen mode, meaning there are black sidebars on the left and right sides.
Question
Is there a way to resolve this? I have seen videos of people be able to fix this with the Xbox one s and x but I haven't seen one for the first-gen Xbox.

How do I connect my Samsung curved monitor to my Xbox One?
To connect an Xbox One to a monitor or television, unbox the free HDMI cable that came with your console. If the monitor or television has an HMDI port built in, simply connect one end to the Xbox One's HDMI Out port. Next connect the other end to the HDMI port on your display.Is a curved monitor good for console gaming?
