If you want to disable the instant game response feature on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition system, then you can follow the steps in this tutorial at Seeking Tech.
What is instant game response on PS5?
By using instant game response, your television set will automatically switch over to its Game Mode or Game Optimizer Mode picture setting when it detects that you are playing a video game on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console.
By using this mode, you should be able to play games with low input lag. On some television sets, this mode will also automatically enable the Variable Refresh Rate feature, which will make some PS5 games that have an unstable frame rate run smoother.
Instant game response is more commonly known as auto low latency mode.

One of the ways to turn off instant game response is by using the system menus on your television set. If you have a LG TV, for example, then you can try doing the following:
