4k looks much nicer

Great deal on a flagship Sony TV here: http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/son...-3d-4k-ultra-hd-55-led-tv-with-6-year-2595466

Is there a cheap(ish) HDMI 2.0 switch that'll passthrough HDR/HDCP 2.2? More specifically for PS4 Pro/PSVR

Faffing with manually pulling cable in and out is annoying as everything goes in to my AV Receiver and that isn't accessible without pulling the TV Cabinet out.

This works according to the first user review

My 2tb firecuda shipped today, not sure if I'm going to keep it though or send it back as I'm starting to think 1tb is enough.

thanks for the heads up, I've ordered one on the strength of the review.
fingers x'd it works as I've ordered and sent back 5 of these types of things from amazon in the past 3 weeks.

Same, I need a bigger drive badly.

I sort of wish I went for the 2TB firecuda over the 1TB. I filled it very quickly and find that I need at least 50gb free to install updates for games. I had to delete a load of games so that overwatch installed its update few days ago!

Thanks

Looks live I would need two use two HDMI ports on my A/V Receiver. One for PS4 Pro HDR and one for PSVR? That would work, right?

I'll wait for your feedback Yungstar.

You did see this?

Note: Our device is HDMI V1.4 with 4K@30Hz support which may be NOT compatible with some latest devices with HDMI 2.0（4K@60H） output such as PS4 Pro, Xbox One S etc.
Please verify before purchasing.

Not exactly pro specific.
I just plugged in a mouse and KB to check out minecraft ps4 style.

It appears across the entire PS4 system mice do virtually nothing and Keyboards are usable in a parts, but not really supported in many games.

All this is pushing me towards looking at how feasible linux/steam etc will be on the PS4 pro.

Anyone know how much game are likely to give me on trade in for a PS4 limited edition destiny console? Just got a 4K TV so wouldn't mind the pro.

I would say around £150/£160 going off the cex price.

Make sure you price match at Game against the CeX price.

I got £134.45 today for a "C grade" PS4 500GB (launch release) which was thanks to GAME matching CEX price and then giving me 5% extra

It only had some minor cosmetic scratches though, I thought grading it a 'C' was a bit harsh.

Does the Netflix app for PS4 pro not support HDR/Dolby vision? I'm trying to stream Marco Polo which supposed to support Dolby vision but my tv isn't recognising?

Let us know how you get on, i am going to get one also if this works

Goberpiles316 · 8 Jan 2017 at 22:54

CEX is right opposite the game near me

So far I've not had luck with HDR/4k in either Amazon video/Netflix on the PS4 Pro. Annoying as without disk support the apps are the only way to get High Quality media.
