If that splitter works, I'll buy one today. Keep us posted

No luck with the splitter. The screen keeps flashing on and off. I was able to get it to stablize, but with both plugged in it locks it to the limits of HDMI 1.4. I hooked up just the Z9D, and it worked fine, but then when I unpluged it, and plugged in the PSVR, the sceen went back to flickering, and I couldn't get it to stop. I am using brand new HDMI 2.0 cables for every connection, so I don't know if the switch is defective, or what, but I gave up for now. After swapping cables for about an hour today, I am actually getting really good at doing it,so I may just live with it and hope a PS4 with PSVR built in comes out in the next year or two. Or maybe Sony will licences an official splitter/switch to patch their fumble.

You probably need a hdmi source duplicator, if that exists. Perhaps amps with dual hdmi will work, if each hdmi port can run with independent settings since one has to render in 1.4 and the other in 2.0a. Yet that will introduce lag to psvr depending on the amp.

Perhaps you can use the splitter if you turn the psvr unit off when you want to use 4K HDR. Kinda pointless I know, you'll still need to uplug the power cable to the processing unit.

Btw, do you still have your old ps4? Can you confirm that HDR actually works on the base ps4 and in what mode? The options are ofcourse simply grayed out on my system, but I'm curious how it is supposed to work. Does a 4K HDR tv accept 1080p HDR, or does the base ps4 somehow output a 1.4 2160p HDR signal? And how does it compare to HDR on the pro?
