Hmmmm.
Trying to connect my new #PS5 to the TV and it is *adamant* that it can't do HDR in 4K.
The AV receiver supports HDR passthrough, and the TV supports it. Things like the FireStick 4K are happy to do HDR at that resolution when plugged in.
Tried a couple of HDMI cables, but still no dice.
Time to figure out if it is a firmware thing, a cable thing, a port thing, a HDCP thing, or something else.
Almost as fun as actually playing games on it 😆
