Onkyo hts5805 hdr problems ps4 pro

Oct 26, 2018 6:12PM PDT

Hi,

I recently set up my new onkyo surround souns stem with ps4 pro and it sounds great. The problem is that it seems to disable hdr when I load a game. It automatically turns off hdr on my tv and when I force it back it looks horrible and oversaturated. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I'm using a Sony xe90 tv hooked up to the receiver from hdmi and the ps4 connected to receiver on game mode.

Anyone know a fix for this? I was thinking about connecting surround sound system receiver to tv via opticle instead of hdmi then just connecting ps4 to tv using hdmi. Would that still work and give me 5.1 on ps4? Thanks

I'm afraid that only doing it will tell you. It depends on the firmware in the TV.

Smart thinking.

PS4 video to TV, audio to receiver. That should do it.

Be aware that I get a LOT of complaints about HDR as to dull or dark colors. Don't be surprised.
