Reddit reviews Sewell IBIS 4K HDMI Switch Box, 2x1, White, 4K 60 Hz, HDCP Pass-Through (HDCP 2.2 Support), 2x1 or 1x2 HDMI Bi-Directional Switch

There's a lot out there now as far as switches. I personally use this one

But the most important thing is to make sure you have hdmi 2.0 cables that are no longer than 1.5 meters(although 1 meter is better). I had blackouts occasionally until I shortened my cables.

I've been using this one without any flicker or blank out issues so far.

I got a splitter and it works pretty well. Pick up some short hdmi high speed cables as well.

So hdmi 1 is hdr/4k, while hdmi 2 is for psvr. I'm still figuring out a good way to get the tv to recognize it half the time, since the toggle on the switch doesn't refresh the hdmi signal. Turning on the psvr seems to do the flip.

And no, other than toggling the button on the switch, there's no plugging and unplugging.

I just got a Sony Bravia and set up my psvr version 1 last week with a PS4 Pro.

If you don’t want to keep unplugging HDMI cords you could get this:

You press a button and it will switch to the other hdmi. Have one going to tv and one to monitor. So when your wife wants to watch tv, click the button and bam it goes to the monitor.

HDMI switch saves a lot of hassle when using VR and HDR/4K tvs. . This one works well with my Samsung.

But yea, fuck Sony for making us go through all these cable gymnastics to make everything work. Piece of shit break out box not having HDR pass through is nonsense.

Some on r/PSVR prefer this HDMI switch box ~ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06WP755QH

Also, 1 of the top reviews is from a PlayStation VR user.

I'm using this. It works great. HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2.

I copied from a post similar to this so I hope it doesn't read too strangely.. I ran into issues trying to get the ps4 pro, vr, and my tv to play nicely.

Samsung js7000 suhd tv with one UHD port.

>PS4 pro > single Ibis input

>Ibis output 1 > second switch(to TV)

>Ibis output 2 > PSVR "TO PS4" hdmi port on processor unit.

>Processor unit to second tv hdmi

These and these are the cables I've tried in various combinations with the PS4 pro hdmi that came with the system.

I went batshit with various combos trying to get it to work. Finally, I was able to get everything to work by using these cables.

I use a .5" from ps4 to Ibis switch, and the ps4 pro cable(that came with the system) from the switch to the tv(second switch).

I hope this helps because I really know the frustration. I can add detail later tonight/

I wanted to avoid going to the back of the TV to change cables so I'm using this HDMI switch, it supports 4k HDR pass through with HDCP 2.2

There is a cable diagram and more information / other solutions on this NeoGAF thread about this issue.

Here is a YouTube Video showing the setup you need.

I just set mine up today. So far it works as advertised.

I'd suggest a switch instead of a splitter. The Sewell Ibis does the trick.

I'm using the Ibis from Sewell on my LG TV with no problems:
