Since this is new technology, there’s a lot of confusion about how to set up one console correctly – in fact, it can be confusing for both TVs and consoles.

Best hdr settings for ps4
If you want to get the best HDR output from your PS4 or Xbox One game console, then this HDTV settings guide should get you on track. The PS4 Pro and Xbox One S support HDR/WCG (High Dynamic Range / Wide Color Gamut) for games and video. So that’s all well and good if your TV set supports it too, but there are a few things to consider. The PS4 Pro, One S and upcoming consoles such as the Scorpio have 10-bit HEVC decoding (HDR10), whereas most current HDTVs only support 8-bit color so to get the most from your expensive new toy you’ll need to adjust the settings on your TV set. So what we’re going to do here is firstly detail what HDR is, why you might want it, then we’ll compare different lighting modes found in HDTVs, before finally recommending some specific HDR settings for different brands of TV sets.
Hello, guys! I have seen many of questions about the hdr settings for PS4 so I decided to make this quick article. As you know, few weeks ago Sony finally added an option to play games with HDR support in PS4. This is a system program update that can be seen under Settings > System. After updating you’ll be able to see hdr video in video app, and game in the game menu if you bought some hdr games.
A good place to start is by checking your TV’s specs, because it can tell you which HDR formats it supports. HDR10 and Dolby Vision are the two formats you will find on current TVs, with most supporting the later. If your TV does not support any HDR standards you likely will not be able to get those extra vibrant colors. If your TV does support one or both of these standards, but you don’t see higher quality images on supported services (Netflix, Amazon Video, etc.) there might be an issue with how the signal is being sent to your TV.
HDR stands for high dynamic range, which gives you a brighter picture with richer colors and more details in the dark and bright areas on the screen. If you’re watching a movie and an explosion goes off, HDR will make it look even more dramatic since the brightness of the flash is very vivid.
