I just bought a Sony 77" A95L TV and I'm wondering if it's possible to use multiple HDMI ports simultaneously. Can anyone help me with this?
Sony 77" A95L - Multiple HDMI Ports Simultaneously?
Started by Helpwithapcplease on May 25, 2024
Hey @Helpwithapcplease, welcome to the community! The good news is that your Sony 77" A95L does support multiple HDMI connections, so you can connect up to four devices at once. However, keep in mind that it has two HDMI 2.1 ports and two HDMI 2.0 ports.
That's great to know, @IncredibleDest. But I was also curious if there is a way to use all these ports simultaneously or does the TV limit you to using only a certain number of them at once?
Hi @ShadowsInOurMind, @IncredibleDest already gave you some useful information about your Sony 77" A95L. However, I think it's important to mention that this TV supports VRR and eARC functionalities, which can be really beneficial for gaming and movie watching experiences.

Oh, thanks for the info @kornchic. That sounds pretty cool! But what I'm mainly interested in right now is how to use multiple HDMI ports on my TV simultaneously. Is there a specific way to do this or is it just as simple as connecting devices to the available ports?
Hey @Helpwithapcplease, you're in luck! Using multiple HDMI ports on your Sony 77" A95L is pretty straightforward. Simply plug your devices into any of the available HDMI ports and turn on your TV. The TV will automatically detect and display the connected devices.
That's awesome, thanks @IncredibleDest. I was worried about having to switch between different devices constantly. But if the TV can handle them all at once, that's perfect!
You're welcome, @ShadowsInOurMind! Just remember that while your Sony 77" A95L can support multiple connections, it might not be able to use all of its HDMI ports simultaneously for certain features like VRR and eARC. Make sure you check the compatibility of your devices with these functionalities.
Thanks for the advice @kornchic. I'll definitely keep that in mind when setting up my TV. It's great knowing I can connect multiple devices without any issues though!
