HDR always on is a really bad idea for LCD TVs. Most exhibits raised blacks and blooming issues in that mode so playing an SRD title on PS5 vill look noticeably worse than on PS4. This really sucks but I'm hoping one can turn HDR off in the settings at least, but it will be a pain in the ass having to go there and do it manually if you are switching between SDR and HDR titles.
The default behavior should be to have HDR turn it self off when launching an SDR title.

I asked for you to read the conversation, not to came into conclusion. I explain 'why' I asked a full wishlist support, not limited to the PS5, but to the html version as well.
There are no demands here. Feel free to ignore my list.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Found another feature that was available on the PS4 but isn't anywhere to be seen on the PS5 (someone correct me please, if I'm wrong).
On the PS4 you could select a game and see it's available addon (DLC) from the PlayStation Store. You can still do this on the PS5. However, on the PS4 there was a button that said "See all of your addons" which would show you a list of the DLC you owned, and it was easy to just go down the list and download everything straight from that page. This doesn't seem to be possible on the PS5.
Some games have tons and tons of DLC. My personal frustration for this came from Rock Band 4 - I can browse through the list of literally thousands of songs available trying to hunt down all of them that I own so that I can download them, but this process is literally going to take hours.

Restriction the home damn thing....its just combersome in my opinion. im sure they will clean it up, but damn....unless im missing something, check to see whos online and messaging them is a pain in the ass. They should move that entire bar above Games and Media and have it always visible. Pressing PS button would just take you to it.
Turning off the console is a chore too...another option is to make the PS button have 2 functions, one for pressing and one for holding....the holding option should be entirely customizable to what you want...
P.S. (no pun intended), I much rather have a round PS button.

Yea Xbox definitely has the edge there. PS5 needs it.
Does anyone know if there's some special sauce with the Xbox OS that wouldn't allow the Quick Resume on PS5?
The greatest of dreams.

If I remember correctly, the "secret sauce" in the Xbox OS is how they implemented Hyper-V for games. There have been major advancements in virtualization, and Hyper-V in particular, since the Xbox One started using it 7 years ago. The virtualized architecture and containerized nature of each game makes it trivially easy to snapshot (dump memory to disk) which is how Quick Resume works. In the case of Xbox, multiple game snapshots are automatically managed by the OS until they get to be a particular size (every game is different) and then the oldest are rotated out.
There is nothing stopping PlayStation from setting up a feature like this, but I would imagine it would be 1) much slower than Microsoft's implementation as they've literally had a decade's head start to optimize the technology and 2) would consume more of the PS5's already precious disk space.
But never say never...

- Sort out the crashes, freezes, bugs
- VRR support
- Auto switch between SDR and HDR option
- Store PS5 games on external drive
- Improve load speeds on BC games
- PS1 Classics and PSP Support (Sony already have emulators for both systems)
- PS2 Classics to have native PS5 versions instead of BC PS4 versions
- Remove trophy restrictions so more publishers can easily release PS1/PS1/PSP games on PS5
- All games have a activity card for load last checkpoint/save so we can skip intro and menus universally

It has been a bit of time since the last firmware updates that were mostly focused on bugs fixing.
So I guess they're now working on implementing new features.
Most wanted for me:
1)Being able to install an extra SSD inside the PS5. Let us know which models are compatible (if any atm...). The internal SSD is just too small especially if you like to take videocaptures while playing games like me.
2)Just fix and complete the HDMI2.1 video output stuff. 8K support is promised on the box and it's not there, VRR support, 4K RGB 120Hz + HDR+VRR support without bugs.
3)Folders and themes support should be back asap.
4)L2/R2 support to do fast forward/backward in videocaptures.
5)Trophies need to be organized a bit better, the progression percentage within a level isn't visible anymore, also the cards given to each trophy are kinda big so you have to scroll a lot horizontally to see all the trophies and to showcase the infos about hidden trophies it was much faster on PS4 (just press square).

GerAlt-Right. Ciriously.
1) should happen NOW. If the SSD does not meet the speed standards then allow it to be AT LEAST a place to store PS5 games that aren't being played.
2). Duh

Stop the f****** installs of ps4 Versions If you already installed the PS5 versions.
There is no f****** reason why someone wants to play ps4 versions of games on the ps5.

I know it's not perfect, but restore licences gets rid of the icons for me.
-Redeisgn the party chat system, it's a proper bag of shit messing about in game base. Half the time I don't get invites from them.
-Themes. I miss my ps4 themes
-Fix external HDD problems and crashes in rest mode.
The virtualization is also what allows Xbox One games to access more of the Series X's hardware capabilities vs. the PS5 and why there aren't really any XBone games with issues on Series X.

- Add a profile option that shows your top three fav games. I share what I listen to but I can't share this, really Sony?
- For trophy hunters, add a profile option that shows the top three trophies you're most proud of.
- The option to delete a trophy list for a game even if you unlocked some trophies.

The UI needs a "social" pass. There should be some sort of activity feed, a quick way to see what my friend are doing, are any of them currently streaming that I could watch, are they unlocking trophies on the same game as me, etc. Right now I feel like I'm playing in complete isolation on the PS5. Everything is really buried.
Trophies also need a lot of work. Ditch the massive horizontal card shit, bring back the PS4 list that will remember what you sorted it by last (I always sort by rarity).

1440p support, and ultrawide support would be amazing, I have a 800 dollar ultrawide sitting by my PC that it kills me not to be able to use with my PS5 well. Not every game would support ultrawide but those with PC ports could easily patch it in. Also Freesync, which isn't just covered by VRR. Lots of display stuff.
USB saves and USB PS5 game cold storage.

Trophy interface improvement, so trophy info can be read without clicking in and also all hidden trophies can be seen with one click rather than for each one.
Access suspend/power off by holding down PS button.
Allow games to be tagged/filtered or Xbox style folders (where a game can be in multiple folders)
Have game artwork respect my purchase, if I buy a game full price at launch, I don't want the fuckin PlayStation Hits artwork showing in my library
