Hey all.
Just bought a new TV at the weekend with a bit of future proofing in mind (LG 65SM9010PLA) which has HDMI 2.1.
Now... My receiver is a Sony STRNDN1080 which i believe is HDMI 2.0.
When the next generation of consoles comes around and i'd like to make use of HDMI 2.1 features i'm assuming the receivers hdmi 2.0 passthrough will not be happy with VRR and higher refresh rate gaming.
Would it be possible to plug the next gen console directly to the TV then use eARC on another hdmi to pass the audio down to the receiver?
Hope that makes sense.
Cheers
