Today I went to play on my PS4 and when I go to turn it on everything seems fine up until there is no video displaying on my screen. I tried several different HDMI cables and a few different TVs. Nothing is working and now I am waiting to receive my return box to ship to Playstation support to be repaired... The last time I played was last weekend gaming it up with my buddy Dangerboy and it was working fine all day.
Anyone else ever have any video issues with their ps4s like this?

Quick Update... I had this issue happen to me again after getting my PS4 back from the previous time. This time I was able to fix it myself and probably would have been able to before if I had tried what I had done this time. So the issue that was occurring was if I had used my PS4 on a different TV/Monitor, like when I go to LAN with Iamdangerboy and use his extra TV, that it would somehow confuse the settings on the PS4 and would generate a black screen when turned on using my ASUS monitor. How I fixed it was using another TV and going into my setting and unchecking the "Enable HDCP" option under Settings > System. I had tried starting it in safe mode several times but wouldn't get any response on my monitor. After unchecking this option I plugged it back into my monitor and it worked normally. I found this fix here: community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-4-Support/PS4-Black-Blank-Screen-flicker-PLEASE-HELP/td-p/44895828It seems that going to an older TV with lower resolution options and then going back to a newer monitor with higher resolution was the issue I was having. Not that anyone cares or has ever had this issue from what it seems... lol |
