I just picked up the h-pattern but all ports are used up on the RS50. I figure I’d just use a usb hub (ala pc), but it’s not recognized. How are you all using a 4th device without disconnecting and without using a usb switch? Or is that not allowed on ps5? I imagined this would be straightforward.

I recently received a PS2 from a buddy of mine that may, or may not, have issues. Before getting this PS2, he tried it on his TV via component but it did not have video, only sound (even loaded a game with sound). So my initial thought was I just needed to navigate blindly to the system configuration >> and switch to component (or composite). When I took it home, I was not having any luck getting the video (and sound) to work. 

Here are some things that I’ve tried, please let me know if there’s something else I’m missing. These steps are pretty much information that’s already out there.

Model: SCPH-39001 . Both blue and green lights are on.

1. Navigate blindly to the sys config video settings: down, x, down, down, down, x, left, x . I’ve tried all kinds of different intervals (also tried with “right” instead of “left” to attempt to switch to composite)
2. I believe it made an attempt to switch to component because I no longer see the “no signal” pop up on my tv. It’s just a black screen.
3. Tried to dust off the AV port as well as the cables (both component and composite). The contacts look pretty good and still intact. 
4. For sanity, I bought new cables but same issue.

Any help is appreciated!
