When I got my PS5 a few months back, right out the box the supplied HDMI cable would not work. The TV could simply not recognise anything being connected to it.
Any other HDMI cable worked fine. The cable also didn't work if I tried to use it with other devices.
At the time I had heard a bit about HDMI 2.1 and wondered whether my TV might just be too old.
However, I got a new TV the other day, very modern mid-range set. But still the supplied HDMI cable does not work. Same issue - no signal is detected. Any other cable again works fine.
Is there something special about the supplied cable? Am I and my TV simply not worthy? Is an HDMI 2.1 cable any different? Is it just a dud? Anyone else have issues with this?
My TV doesn't have true hdmi 2.1 features, but as I understand it the cable should still in theory work?
