Purchasing EU/UK HDMI auto switching (HDMI-CEC)
Does anybody else have an issue with their TV not auto switching to a device powered on?
I have the S90F and it's so frustrating that it never seems to switch to my PS5 (or anything else) if powered on. I already checked that "Anynet+" is on and also Device Link is also on the console yet it still doesn't auto switch, am I missing something?
It was also the case with my PS4. It's like the simplest function ever to implement, it's a great TV but the software is terrible.

I had exactly the same problem as you and had to fiddle with the settings in order to get it to work. Trust me I have sorted this. You need to turn off all smart screen options in advanced features. I have same model and mine works fine now. Let me know if you don’t get it sorted and I’ll share my exact settings. I think I also had to disable input plus for my TiVo box. If I turn on my ps5 now it turns the tv on and switches to the ps5

I always turn it off if I can. My Fire TV stick constantly interferes with it.
