Topic: HDR static on screen

Posts 1 to 4 of 4

Whenever HDR is active in game and the camera moves I get static on screen. This has only just started happening after a power cut mid game. Replaced the HDMI and no change. If I turn off HDR the issue goes away but obviously want to play in the best way. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@Danny1249 I had a similar issue recently. Only one of my TV's HDMI ports was HDR capable, and it would frequently throw up some light "red snow" static (whether using HDR or not). Fortunately I was on the verge of upgrading anyway, so I made do whilst researching new screens.

My point is, this sounds like it could be a fault with your TV, not your PS4. As long as you rebuilt your database after the power cut, the console should be fine.

To rebuild your database, start the PS4 in safe mode and select the option from the menu.

@RogerRoger thank you for the advice. I feel a bit stupid but after changing the hdmi ports around on the tv and adjusting the tv visual settings it now running smoothly, thanks again

@Danny1249 No worries, and don't feel stupid. The more technology we interconnect, the more potential problems there could be. Smart people stand up and ask when they're not sure.

Glad it's working well again, and I hope you continue to enjoy whatever it is you're playing!
