tightI'm replacing the hdmi ports on an Xbox one x right now, some goof thought a good solution to replacing a damaged hdmi out would be to remove the hdmi in, and solder it to the hdmi out channelnow both ports have to be replaced, since he not only damaged the in port when either removing or installing it, but also because he was stupid enough to trythe hdmi in is only a 1.4 port, and the out is 2.1they were never compatible in the first place
