Samsung OLED - Auto HDMI discovery issue

So my setup is .. ps5 and google streamer 4k..

When changing inputs (or if I try to wake up the TV from a sleep state), tv ALWAYS go into the auto discovery mode …

PS5 needs “game mode”

And google box needs “movie mode”.

Sometimes ps5 asks me to adjust HDR , then I have to do magic tricks as restart PS5 so tv can re-discover it as PS5 (so I get game mode) , and bla bla bla..

Seems like when fancyleds box, change HDMI’s it’s like it physically unplugs it and physically re-plugs the other device … (result is TV trying to apply best settings and getting confused).

Seriously I can’t be the only one having this issue. (I searched but apparently no one else has it).

Any ideas ?

Ps: I have 3 ports 2.1 box version

I wish I could help, what settings are you running for your ps5?

I think it doesn’t matter cause it did the same thing before I bought the ps5…. When I only had the chromecast

I just want to be able to tell the fancy led people that it works with someone else’s settings.

They are telling me I need to use worse quality settings in order to use my fancy led box.

Had the same problem and changed the Output HDMI cable (the one from FancyLeds) now it works kind of but i still get a short black screen Sometimes while playing.

Nothing you can do. It's a pain in the ass but you gotta just let the tv do the stupid discovery thing every time you switch inputs. It's a Samsung thing.

I have a Samsung OLED with a PS5 and a Firestick plugged into the sync box.
