Black screen, purple light all of a sudden

noob404

Guys, as you all know. I have been working on Batocera for PS4 for some time now. Close to launch, I am facing an issue. It'd be great to know if you guys have some input. I have been using a cpture card to record my videos while running Linux and it has never given me an issue. But, since 2 days now, upon loading the payload using Netcat GUI (Mira+Nazky's Linux), all I get is the black screen with the purple light. Has anyone of you faced this issue? If yes, how did you fix it?

Things I have tried

Changing OBS Settings
Setting resolution of PS4 to 1080p and disabling HDMI link and HDCP
Tried unplugging and replugging HDMI cable

Tried everything. Shortlisted it down to an issue with my capture card. Couldn't have come at a worse time, when I was very close to Batocera launch.

noob404 Hi Friend I'm doing tests on my ps4 pro by installing various distros, often I also get the black screen and the blue / purple light I managed to get to the dashbord, first disconnecting hdmi then reconnecting hdmi then I press the keys ctrl + shift + F2 then ctrl + shift + F1 and then I tried in sequence also ctrl + F3 up until you get to F9 until the login screen appeared, Try them all you will see that you will see the login screen exit

LaZzday Unfortunately, none of these work for me. Still trying to figure it out. Thanks anyways.

noob404 When the black screen comes off I immediately disconnect hdmi and then hang up I proceed like this but the dashboard is not instantaneous, I press as I told you ctrl + shift + F1 and then ctrl + shift + F1 and then only when after about 3 or 4 minutes that I try I press also ctrl + shift F6 or F7 and after this comes the dashboard maybe you make further attempts waiting a bit, however I use kiro's playload without sending the playload aim I hope it helps you

LaZzday I will definitely try this later.
