Wireless, it's going to be a bit of a pain getting it wired given how they're in completely separate rooms of the house.
Nope. Try another controller, if it still happens, return the system or get it replaced.

Hi, just a quick question!
Reading the PS4 Pro Faq
http://blog.us.playstation.com/2016/09/08/ps4-pro-the-ultimate-faq/
i found this:
So, i'm interested in GTA V right now, can someone tell me if clips on PS4 Pro are saved at 1080p resolution in both single and multiplayer?
Thank you very much!

i found this:
I initially thought that every game could benefit from higher resolution gameplay capture via internal dvr (not talking about live streaming here, just saving clips), but it seems not to be the case.
So, i'm interested in GTA V right now, can someone tell me if clips on PS4 Pro are saved at 1080p resolution in both single and multiplayer?
Thank you very much!

Hmmm.
Well the Pro uses a newer WiFi standard.
That's probably your culprit if they are not that close, I remember someone explained it's faster but more susceptible to interference and being physically blocked.
You can probably tell your router to force the older standard that your OG model used.
I don't know much about that kind of thing but I'm sure someone around here probably does.
Apologies, it is 5400. I should have checked more than one source.

Hi guys, does anyone happen to know if the unofficial way of redownloading PT still works? I've just got a Pro but want to throw in the SSHD that's in my base PS4. I don't have a spare HDD to do the backup procedure on, so I was just thinking of syncing everything to the cloud and redownloading everything overnight...

So far I have not run into any game (Pro or unpatched) that does not record at 1080p. The "specifics vary by game" thing likely has more to do with the fact that developers can block games from being recorded by the system, which we've seen for certain story elements or whatnot (in which "Recording blocked" type of message will appear).
Regardless, here is a clip straight to YouTube from my PS4 Pro - beginning with online and then switching to single player: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQOAGU-xgLw

New unit has a loose top lid...or it's just me...
Can someone please try lifting the rear right corner of their ps4 pro and tell me if you hear a click?
I'm really OCD about these types of things...

No click on mine, sorry.

Just tried it, and it seems to be the same for me. Never noticed it before.
EDIT: No click though, but the corner lifts a bit.

Any sound at all when you lift it?

No, that doesn't sound too good.
On mine, all the corners have some lift, but no clicking sounds.

Tried it again, and no sound. It only moves very little, when I lift it.

Not sure if people are aware about the top lid but:

It comes off which is why it moves a bit.

Thanks for sharing that. Good to know the insides can be cleaned that way.
I have to say that the design has started to grow on me. At first I didn't like the Big Mac design. But having is sit beside the original PS4 makes me kinda like it.
Do you run it like that?
The heat!

It's actually quieter this way than when it's horizontal or normal vertical. The fan is now also positioned at the top improving airflow.

P.T. is really small so all you need is like a 2gb card or usb stick. Youd have to download everything else but youll get to keep p.t.
I think he meant that all the hardware is next to each other so the heat will accumulate.

There's plenty of space between each active device and there's ~18cm between the Playstations and the wall.
The PS3 and PS4 Pro are never on at the same time* and the (original) PS4 isn't even plugged in. The PC is only running ~5°C above ambient temp and dumps its heat at the top and top-rear.
*Even if they were they wouldn't obstruct each other's airflow.

Picked up a 4k TV for the new apartment I am moving into with my girlfriend. So, I am going to trade in my old PS4 today and pick up a Pro!
Still no Bloodborne
I'm waiting for a Pro patch to play that game for the first time!
I thought that might be the case. hmmmmm, interest rising.
fake edit- dammit I thought that was for Lego GTA. :/
Thank you very much not only for your answer, but for even putting a video up. Really, really appreciated!

I know the dev said this on Twitter, but my pixel counts of the game only found it to be 1440p. So either they were mistaken, I am mistaken, they thought 1440p was called 4K, or the game runs at dynamic resolution.

Don't say that. There is an ounce of hope that Sony has some sense.
Out of stock probably.
What? I have no problems pulling up the listing.
EDIT: Ah. I see, they only have the listing for other sellers. Curious. Out of stock does seem like a plausible explanation.
They have been going in and out of stock regularly. Slickdeals had a whole post when they came back in stock. I think they are selling everything that they can get at this point.
I bought directly from Amazon.
I don't think this is about demand, looks like supply problem to me. Amazon.com/.de/.co.uk or Sony authorized dealers in my country, all out of stock. Manufacturing problems maybe, I don't know.

That's happened to me a few times with my launch model. Maybe half a dozen times in 3 years and it got lots of use.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Jeese, that sounds bad. Thankfully my launch hasn't shown anything like this.
But you should still have it under the 1 year manufacturer warranty, or better yet if you got the retailer warranty, I would recommend having it replaced if possible.
same thing just happend to me...hope its not something thats gonna happen a lot now
