I just bought the new Playstation 4, and my HS420 doesn't work at all. No pictures. Seems like the PS4 HDCP is no good for the HS420? Anybody?

are your other inputs working? Are you sure your in the right ports and have the light lit for the port your in? If so, check your cables. I have no problem with my ps4 hooked through it

Thanks! That makes sense. I did get a message that said something about HDCP. Can you recommend any HDMI cables that are HDCP compatible? I was trying to avoid spending a ton of money on one, but maybe I just have to. I also read on avsforum about firmware updates, etc. I guess I'll try a new cable before contacting Samsung.

Robbie....Thanks for the wealth of discussion on the S560 I am another dope who thought he would get Netflix streaming only to find out the it was only available on the S460.. then my son in law called a few mins ago and said the tech that had just set up his HD TV and PS3 said he needed the disk from Netflix before he can receive netflix. He then said I should use the disk to set up the S560 .... now I can tell him the it "almost works" but needs a date/time config........any more ideas guys?

At least you can get your TV to recognize the signal, my tv won't pick up on the hdmi connection. But if i connect it directly to my TV, our when I had my 1080i TV, to change the setting all you would have to do is change it on your playstation, as long as you have 1080P and you change it to automatic, you should be able to get it to work fine in 1080P...sorry this is one year late?

@ JonThe Oppo 980 has several video outputs. There is the HDMI, Component Video, S-Video and the Composite Video.I believe that HDCP is an issue when playing back on HDMI but it should not be an issue for Component Video, S-Video and Composite Video. I would like to suggest that you check directly with Oppo at www.oppodigital.com. The tech support guys there have been very helpful on past queries.Please let us know what Oppo's response is so it will be of help to other similar inquiries in the future.

Has anyone played games on it?I just bit the bullet and bought the Samsung LN40A550 based on reviews. (Got ps3 for blue ray discs and I watch A LOT of movies.) I also like to play FPS and other games with a lot of movement and action. Has anyone noticed any sort of ghosting or blurring when they play games on it? Bad thing to wonder about AFTER I buy the tv, but I'm sure it'll still be worth it when I see my movies in a new-1080p-light.

Mark, I am considering buying a Sony KDL-40EX700 TV and a BDV-E770W or BDV-570 Blu-ray Disc Player Home Entertainment sytem. I went to the Sony web site and contacted David P. on their chat link and asked the HDMI hook up question.His reply is as follows: "I'd be happy to assist you with that. There is one HDMI connection on those systems that connects to your Television. Once you have connected that, you would then plug any other devices that you have (Cable Box, Game Systems etc) to your TV via HDMI and it will send the sound to the surround sound system." Sounds like it should work but have yet to try it. Good luck. Mark, I am considering buying a Sony KDL-40EX700 TV and a BDV-E770W or BDV-570 Blu-ray Disc Player Home Entertainment sytem.

Unfortunately the power over HDMI did not work for me, for some reason my HD television couldn't supply enough power to the machine and I didn't want to have my playstation on all the time in order to power the device. You might need to connect one of the HDMI slots on this device connect to a power outlet through a HDMI to USB cord or some other method.

@Anthony - I've been using it in my PS4 for several weeks and no issues so far. All data has copied properly so far, no issues with video streaming and a half dozen game downloads. System shows all HDD as available. I'll update review if I experience any instability.

Just saw a youtube video of a guy baking the HDMI board. The commentators claim it works. Not for the faint of heart, though. I have the same issue. Will try with Onkyo first to see if they agree to repair it. If not, I'll bake the board. What's the worse that could happen?

You can buy a HDMI to component cable or converter box, but it will probably not work with Sony's HDCP copy protection in place. Odds are you will need a new HDTV. While most recent HDTVs support HDMI, there are plenty of gamers who are using an older HDTV that came out right as HDMI was becoming a standard feature. These cables don't work with most content, Bluray or streaming devices.

Depends on what you play in the PS4. HDCP protected content will not pass. Non protected content should. Basically, don't expect to play BluRay movies through your PS4 while some games may or may not. This isn't a problem with the Kanex product. Every Kanex product (including this one) that I've used has worked very well.

Does with work with the latest PS3 Software update 3.55? I know they've been disabling 3rd party USB devices and narrowing it down to devices that are either Sony or USB Certified.EDIT: I checked that Newegg link and it had a product picture of the packaging which had the USB logo on it. So it appears to be USB Certified. A review on the same site said it didn't require drivers. Thanks for that link. :D

Ken, did you find a cable that supports HDCP Handshaking? I've not gotten this cable to work with AppleTV, looking for alternative. Anyone?

I tried to using this device with an older Sony Playstation 2. The device converted PS2 video output to device - then to HDMI (with no flickering) but without audio. So device was useless to me... unless my kids want to play game without sound.

i had the same problem with a powered hdmi over cat6 extender with my playstation. worked great with tv but not with playstation.this product solved this problem. i use a fiber optic audio from playstation to my home theater and use this cable to run the video from p/s to flat screen tv. sound works as well but tv speakers suck. good luck!
