Thanks for the quick response! Am I correct that that is the only enhanced setting that will work with my set up? Again PS4 Pro, playing on a 1080p tv.

I believe so, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

It's a Sony Xbr55x850c.
I'm using the hdmi cable provided with the pro.

Here's a nice short guide to help you verify you have it all setup right. This is what I used

HDMI cable is fine and all your connection HDMI ports are the same. What video output does the PS4 Pro tell you its doing when you go into Settings------>Sound and Screen-------->Output settings--------->Resolution

Resolution is 3840X2160 - 60hz
Color format YUV420
HDR on your TV says Only 2K supported
Hdcp 2.2

MLB The Show 17 Supports 4K & HDR on PS4 Pro

Surprised more people aren't talking about it in this thread...

Same problem for me have to go to settings for every game and tweak the hdr intensity or just move from 4K to high frame rate so the hdr comes back up. Sucks that for online we can't access the visual settings, have to play with the game looking dark. Hopefully it can be an easy fix for next patch.

This thread makes my brain hurt. I am going with the setting from the video's I posted a few pages back. Nice and simple without too much tinkering with settings.

PS: The two videos are by visual professionals stating the same exact settings for the Pro and KS8000

TV Settings

*Game Mode On
*Backlight Max
*Color Space Auto
*Smart LED High

PlayStation 4 Pro Settings:

Video Output Settings 2160p Resolution / all others automatic

You realize when you tweak the HDR settings, it's not actually "coming back up" but rather screwing up the HDR completely right?

After you access the HDR slider or anything in that menu you should always exit the game and restart it.

You really need to read back in this thread a little, specifically post #974 by Artman22. I can't see your screen but it's likely not too dark, it's likely how it should be when HDR is turned on.

Honestly, I'm not an expert. I'm just a gamer who wastes way too much time on stuff like this. I could be way off but my honest opinion is this is just the first year SDS has handled Pro Mode and HDR and there is just a hiccup or two here or there, which is understandable. The HDR slider is the first I've heard of, and the three visual modes for 4k displays is very ambitious. Other games have done it, but most just up the resolution, or downsample, automatically and call it a day.

I'm sure any smudges will get ironed out in time, and I still think some people probably have improperly calibrated sets or a setting somewhere on their TV or PS4 that's just not right and may be hampering something, which is also understandable as Pro/4k/HDR are all pretty new things to a lot of people anyway. Growing pains are good, it means we are making progress!

Been following this tread for a while and yes, ODogg is extremely helpful.
I'm playing with OG PS4 with KS8000. Game looks great without HDR and even better with it on, another good resource is rtings, they do a great job of explaining that when your watching HDR as it was designed there's a bit of an adjustment.
However, I do have one issue and I'm not sure if it's a PS4 issue or not. When the ball is put in play with HDR on it disappears in the grass. It's almost like it blinks in and out or it won't show up at all off of the bat. I don't know if it's the color of the ball or what but something isn't right. Just wondering if anyone else has seen something like this.

I have noticed this as well, however when I keep the HDR slider at the default or maybe a little less (45%) then it looks better and doesn't seem to disappear in the grass. It still isn't as white as in past games but a little bit easier to pick up. That's just what I have experienced with my TV settings and the in-game settings.

I think I know what you mean. It's not just you. I've not entirely lost the ball in the grass but it seems almost like it's translucent at times. They need to fix it so the ball is a nice, crisp white.

I gotta say next year I bet things will be figured out and they won't use a hdr slider.
