Samsung Neo Odyssey G8, lovely thing, except, if I leave it on Display Port for my PC, I can turn my PC on or off and it works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But, if I turn on my PS5, connected via HDMI, It won’t switch to HDMI port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My PC is on. Or my PC is off, no difference with how it works for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have to manually stretch and click the buttons to get to HDMI, select.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Use the PS5, then turn it off when done, monitor goes to sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next morning I turn on my PC, nothing. I have to go through the motions of switching manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If only I had a remote control for this device. (Every previous monitor I’ve used in the past 15 years has had a remote control)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My situation is that my monitor is way back on my desk, and it takes a workout session to mess with the menus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s always been like that. AutoSwitching+ is solidly garbage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
