How to connect the PS 5 and Sky stream to TV the same time?
Good morning
I've just bought PS5 for my son and I've connected it to TV HDMI port but I did that I had to discount my SKY stream from TV.
The problem is that if I want to watch TV I need to disconnect PS5 and connect Sky stream back.
Just wonder is there anything I can do that I connect them both to Tv the same time?
Thank you.

Does your TV really only have ONE hdmi port?
You could try using a HDMI switch?

Search online it is a device that allows you to connect more than one hdmi device to a TV with a single available hdmi port!

It's an external device (small box) with two or more input HDMI ports, and one output to the television, plus either a manual or remote control to choose which of the input devices is displayed on screen.
Note this is different to an HDMI 'splitter' which is not what you want.

Also be aware that the switch needs to be specified as capable of passing the desired output resolution through to the screen, but I'm guessing that a television with only one HDMI port isn't UHD.
