QuestionI was wondering if this projector is capable of displaying 4K and HDR simultaneously or if it can only do one or the other. I have both an Xbox Series X and a PS5 and I'm able to display HDR content on my ps5 in 1080p but not with my Xbox.
Asked 4 years ago by Z.
- Answer Hello Z. The EF12 can display 4K HDR with the following refresh rates 23.98/24/25/29.97/30. The refresh rate on your console may be set higher than the supported options. With 1080p HDR, the EF12 supports higher refresh rates such as 23.98/24/25/29.97/30/50/59.94/60. We recommend starting there; if you need additional assistance, please reach out to our Technical Support team by phone. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

QuestionSo I am trying to connect my ps4 to the projector, I can hear it but I cannot see it on the screen. I have tried both hdmi ports and still no image. Any recommendations? Help!
Asked 4 years ago by Jaliskilla01.
- Answer Hello Jaliskilla01. This could happen due to resolution issues. We recommend Pressing and holding the power button on your PS4 for about 7 seconds (until you hear the second beep from the console. You should then see instructions to have the PS4 controller connected using the USB cable and press the PS Button. You will then go into a menu where you can select Change Resolution. You will then get a message that the PS4 will restart. Once it comes up, choose Automatic or 1080P. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
