How to use your PC as a display for your Xbox One S

My TV is broken and I still want to play on my Xbox. I tried using an HDMI cable to connect my Xbox to my PC but my PC wouldn't display anything. How do I connect my Xbox to my PC using an HDMI cable?

You need a HDMI input port on your PC and configure your PC to simply use pass though the signal. I highly doubt there is one, it's most likely a HDMI output port. So you can't do it. If your monitor supports HDMI, you could try that instead (for the PS4, it won't recognize PC monitors unless the monitor supports TV input).

I know this answer doesn't specifically involve connecting an Xbox One to a PC with an HDMI cable as requested in the original question, but the overall objective of using a PC for sound and video while playing on an Xbox One can be achieved with Game Streaming via the Xbox App running on the PC.

For full details of how to setup Game Streaming see this Microsoft support page.
