Guys, help :

- Booted up my Pro today and the system hitched for 2-3 seconds after which the screen got dark but my system resumed normally after that without rebooting or anything ...
Got presented with the "there was a problem with the system software" - console is A-OK but it's just that it's the 1st time that I've encountered this...

- the boot-up sequence , after the newly introduced "welcome tab" is laggy - is it normal? Maybe it's got to do with using an animated background ?

- The "other" folder (in the storage menu) has reached 94GB for fuck's sake ! Had the base PS5 for 1.5 years and it was around 30GB, what's up with that ?
Is it proportionate to the number of games installed on the internal SSD by any chance ?meaning, does the number get bigger depending on how many games you have installed ?
The Pro has a 2TB SSD and i have about 700GB left, will deleting some games make the number go down? (I'd like some confirmation before doing so).

Thanks

Make sure you're on the latest firmware - mine installed a new one when I first booted it up. Never had your system error thankfully. My system isnt laggy, though others have mentioned it. I'm at 115Gb in the Other folder, though I never pay attention as I have 6TB (2 sys + 4 internal expansion).

Thanks mate

Apparently, the "other" system folder is MOSTLY dependent on the number of PS4 (not PS5) games you have installed.

The laggy boot up animation is a weird one - console starts at the "welcome hub" since the feature got introduced and the lag is very apparent for 1-2 seconds.
Reset my console 'cause of my OCD aaaand...the lag is not there ? What the heck...
Anyway, I'm restoring my stuff via HDD now and after it's done I'm going to download some games and see if it's related - maybe the system gets bogged down depending on how much stuff you got installed ? fuck knows at this point...

Cheers

How is Metaphor: Refanazio.
How does it compare to the Persona and regular SMT games?

Has anyone had issues with Spotify on their PS5 lately?

Last weekend the Spotify app on my PS5 decided to just stop working completely and despite trying pretty much everything it simply won't work. Most of the time it I get this:

At times I get different error codes:

Can't find anything on these codes when googling. Useless.

I have tried:
-Repeatedly de-linked and relinked my Spotify account to my PSN both via the console and from the account itself via browser.
-Tried "Listen on Spotify" on several different tracks via the quick access music player.
-Deleting the app, restarting the console and installed the app again.
-Moving the app from the M2 SSD to console storage.
-Clearing the cache and rebuilding the database.
-I've rebooted my router several times.

Neither of the above seem to help. Any guesses on how to solve this?
I haven't tried reinitializing my PS5, but that's pretty much a last resort, I'd rather not do that if it can be avoided.
