LG Ultrafine 4k/5k with PS4 Pro?

JayCar said:
I have an LG Ultrafine 5K (connected to MBpro) and I can tell you that you can use any adapter configuration you want to physically connect it, but you will not get the display to turn on unless it's connected to a Mac, period. Nothing else will send the correct display signal. It was designed specifically to connect to the mac and they ensured this would be the case. Not to sound like a jerk on this, but it simply won't work as others have stated.

You've actually gotten this to work in your own home with your own gear? Color me skeptical, but can you post images showing the results?

It's a bit more suspect since you're a new user as of the 17th, and only posting about a $42 cable for sale on eBay. Not trying to be rude, just pointing out the current situation.

This has been tried many times before and has been unsuccessful. If I'm off base here and it's legit, then it's awesome you were able to figure it out. I just feel like in this case a bit more validation would help.

I'm not posting ebay link I just simply post a reddit link I found, don't know why here automatically appears the linked page preview screen,click the reddit link not ebay link to check out the detail from others. You have every right to suspect I know how hard this cable to be found,I have been following here for a long time, but I haven’t registered. When I found this solution I register as soon as possible to inform here just trying to help. As far as I know this cable has a built-in chip which expensive. I'm not at home now I will post pictures next week.

This cable even work on XDR

Combination PS4 and XDR display

I bought this cable and received this morning. Here I'm reporting that I tried with my Razer Blade Pro and XDR, and YES it works perfectly. With the connection of the USB cable, I can even adjust the brightness from the bootcamp panel. The resolution is only 4K, but based on this set up, I think...

I stand corrected. Thanks for posting that and I apologize again for my assumption. :)

I'd really like to buy one of these cables but that eBay seller appears to have sold out, and I cannot find them anywhere else after much searching. If anyone finds them and would be willing to share the link, I'd love to buy one!
