I had to go into my settings under device I think and change the headphone out to all audio not just chat on my PS4 pro.

Report back on this! I didn't get round to trying last night.

I think InFamous varies wildly depending on your TV. For instance - if your using a 1080p TV the game is far too dark when you don't have a light source shining directly on you (so alleyways are insanely dark and you can't make out fine details). It seems to be a known issue that Sucker Punch is investigating, but I increased my TV brightness slightly and that has helped a bit. Still not perfect, but I do love that improved frame rate!
But data transfer will take a while (close to 1,5 TB)...Alligatorjandro

So will games that don't have a patch see any improvements?
No, the PS4 will run in base mode for them. But all upcoming games will have a pro mode.

What are my fellow PS4PRO & XBONES owners who only have 1 HDR compatable HDMI doing?

I learned today that I have zero issues with the amount of HDR input lag on my LG 65C6P OLED, which I was fairly worried about before! WOOHOO!!! I tried out both Uncharted 4 and Infamous SS and was able to control the game just fine, and my performance in the game didn't suffer.
Then again my last 3 TV's have had 115ms, 50ms, and now 67ms (in HDR mode) of lag so that probably explains it. Still, it's reassuring that I can play the games I want and enjoy them despite many in GAF saying it would be "unplayable".
Oh and btw... these games look STUNNING in HDR on this TV!! I'm a huge Pro believer now!
Edit:
Not the exact same situation, but my TV only has 3 inputs and I have 3 HDR devices to plug into it along with a receiver with 3 other HDMI devices plugged into it. I bought a new receiver that was HDR compatible.

I have a receiver that has multiple hdmi in that support 4k/HDR
once I get my Xbox one S it'll plug in to the other port on the back of my receiver.

It only asked me if I wanted to activate my new system as my primary device, it did not deactivate my old system. I had to perform a full system initialization on my old system afterwards.
Games will know its a pro automatically. But some games have different "pro" modes you will need to switch too...higher framerate versus better graphics\resolution.

R&C automatically detects it and a prompt appears informing you HDR is now active.

I noticed that the new controller doesn't pulse the orange light when it's recharging
Or is it not recharging? Kinda confused :\

It's done by default.
Some games have certain toggles for frames over graphical upgrades and such. Some don't.

Is there any way to force Pro into classic PS4 mode on games with patch ?

Yeah, I think most Samsung 4k TV owners are in this boat.
It's not great, and I'm hoping it's just an example of devs first attempt on the system and it'll improve as they get better at optimizing and/or don't aim higher than the system is capable of just to hit a number.
This was one of my initial fears. We shouldn't be buying a premium product and getting worse performance for it. Hopefully Sony understands this and is stern with devs.

No m8. Both of these are generally refered to as Input Lag. Display Lag just describes a certain kind of Input Lag, i.e. delay from output source to a display device (in this case the "input" is the HDMI signal).

For £450 I can't argue though. I don't usually use more than one device at a time, and thankfully it's not difficult for me to change cables (not attached to a wall or anything).
In a couple of years, maybe by the time I buy a scorpio i'll upgrade to a TV that does literally everything without any worries!

Hot damn. Modern Warfare Remastered and Infinite Warfare both look insanely good.
As does the Last of Us.
I won't be double dipping on PC any time soon.

16 more hours for my transfer to finish. I started it before bed 8 hours ago overnight...
I should have gone with a different method other than both consoles wired through ethernet to my router. I am transfarring 1tb of data, but some here have done half that in a fraction of the time. Maybe a direct console connection would have been more wise. Eh, I will be at work anyway while it goes, but ugh...

I think I've basically tried that but my methods might have been slightly different. I'll give it a try to the T tonight. Thanks.
Most of what I found was my own posts. I'll dig deeper but downloading from the cloud is not an option. For a number of reasons but mainly: I am NOT losing P.T.
I've had both attached to the same TV, switching between them to check it out, and I've had just the Pro attached to the TV and neither method worked.
But your post does give me faith that maybe it's just been some issue that will be rectified naturally by time. I'm going to do a hard powercycle by unplugging each PS4 and starting fresh tonight after work.
I really really really hope this works. It wouldn't let me back up on an external harddrive and I certainly don't have a flash drive big enough to house even my captures (68 gigs).

So far I think Infamous 4K/HDR is the new gold standard for graphics imo.
Thoughts?
Thoughts?
JS series also. You just have to turn it on for each individual input first.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
System transfer finally finished.
20 hours for 800 gigs. :|
I guess there must be some sort of bottleneck on my router with LAN devices communicating with each other. Never noticed it before.

Can you try hooking them to separate TV's and leaving both TVs turned on the entire time so they are both outputting a video signal during the whole process. I know it sounds pointless and weird but it might be worth a shot. I'm wondering if something is going on when the ps4 isn't outputting video that's causing it to timeout and with you switching inputs back and forth that would cause it to not output for short bursts of time.

I bought this so sure I'd play Tomb Raider at 1080p with the dials turned up but fuck me, 4K is just a game changer. Shame I'll have to move it to my room soon and stop taking up the main TV. Supersampling better be good!

I think it you hold down the PS button and choose devices, you go to your controller, and switch on the USB connection. You'll know it's working if you plug in the cord and the USB fork symbol comes up at the top left of the screen, and it disconnects if you take the cord out.
On a side note, should it take four hours per 100 GB over the same home network, on the same exact switch, to transfer from my old PS4 to the Pro? This is ridiculous.

I mean... I suppose that is possible.
It will be a hassle but I think I can arrange that tonight. I'll have to change some things around with setup but at this point I'm willing to try anything. Thanks man. I'll let you know if it works.

How's the quality of remote play on Pro now? Does it look better?

Havn't tried it but others say yes
Pretty steady 30 fps and looks great. Big step up, visually, from the first.

Hum i dont know how should i put it, im playing ps4 on my sony 4k tv and i have to put it in game mode so i dont feel the lag between when i press the button on the controler and i see the action on the tv.
What i was asking is if a buy a ps pro, the lag will be higher or low since ps pro dont have to upscale 1080 content.
Thank you
You'll need the new. The old version won't fit, but the new model fits both the Pro and the slim. Stood my pro up last night and it really looks fantastic.
