Activate HDR on PlayStation 4
With HDR, colors and light are displayed much more realistically. HDR has been available on the PS4 since the PS4 firmware update 4.0. Your TV must support the HDR10 format. You also need an HDMI Premium cable. Ordinary HDMI cables cannot transmit HDR.
- Connect your TV to the PlayStation 4 using the HDMI cable. Note that often not all HDMI inputs support HDR.
- Open the "Settings" on the PlayStation 4 and select the "Video output settings" in the "Sound and screen" category.
- Set the "HDR" and "Deep Color" options to "Automatic".
- Now start a game that supports HDR or stream an HDR movie via an app.
