Microsoft App Tiles Showing Stripes

Hey everyone,

after connecting my Surface to my TV via Mirco HDMI Kabel to HDMI, I recognized some tiles looking strange and different / showing stripes. I don't know if this was there form the beginning or if it started after plugging in the cable.
Reinstalling, rebooting, repinning or resizing din't solve the issue.

To see the issue, just zoom into the picture and look at the Mail.app on the left. But also all other Microsoft Apps seem to have these strange stripes.

Any help would be appreciated. I hope I don't have to do a System repair.

You might try going into the TVs menu and looking for something that increases the RGB gamut/range. You may see something like 24 bit, 32 (limited), 32 bit (full) etc.

It's not only my TV having this issue. My Surface screen also shows the Microsoft Tiles that strange...
