    Does anyone use a HDMI splitter with their PS5?

    Used to use one with my PS4, but I had to get rid of it as it caused Spider-Man PS4 to behave weirdly. I can't remember exactly what the issue was, just that I needed to get rid of it. Haven't used one since.

    Yes I do but I have two Samsung TV so I don’t have the choice I must use the splitter as there’s no direct HDMI port on the TV

    Do they work reliably?

    It’s like cars or phones etc it depends the brand but personally one of my TV which is 7 yo using the same HDMI splitter I never had any issue and my internet box, my PS5, my PS4 and Xbox Series X are all connected on it

    Slightly irrelevant but why do you have both a PS5 and PS4 connected at the same time? Do you play one of the literally 10 games that aren't backwards compatible with the PS5?

    The PS5 can be quite full quickly even though I added an extra 1To SSD and PS4 games tends to be a bit bigger in size than installed on the PS4 but the main reason is that some games act weirdly on the PS5 such as AC Syndicate or Assetto Corsa so that’s why I kept it to play with me mates as well

    I got a Totu from Amazon. Four inputs, auto-selects the right one when you turn something on, remote control. Had it for a few years now, no problems at all. Cost somewhere in the low to mid $30s, I think.
