Hey everyone! I tried to make this video as accessible as possible to the largest audience as possible. For those of you who like to get deep into settings, we could talk about that, too! Let me know as a reply to this comment what your top questions are and I’ll see what we can do!
Hey Caleb, what’s are your recommendations for the LG C1 settings?
Do U review Samsung S95B soon maybe....
You know what? I'd love it if every TV had a flux capacitor setting even if it did nothing :-)
I WANT THE Z9K REVIEW.....ITS ALMOST MAY SO WHAT'S TAKING SO LONG!!!!!😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Can you please discuss recommendations for motion processing ? My DLP home theatre projector has perfect native motion processing out of the box. Period. My OLED Sony has a great picture, but, the "sample-and-hold" is pure hell when the camera does a long slow pan. It's as jerky/choppy as hell. How do we make the panning on a flat panel look like a panning shot we grew up with in a movie theatre ? Thanks !
I spend more time fiddling with my settings than actually watching a movie, it drives me nuts 😂😂😂
What you need is a movie about fiddling with TV settings. Maybe this needs to be my next project?
@@Caleb_Denison that’s it!!
i like setting the settings up differently for evey movie so that everything looks just like what i wanted to.
Brilliant Jan 👏👏👏
Ok thank u I’m not the only one😅 I jus want a good viewing experience, I’m constantly adjusting speaker placements and picture settings
"promply turning of power saving mode" is the most powerful thing I did to my TV, huge improvement. Kudos to this guide.
always pick vivid. It blows your eyes out baby
I’ve been watching you for a few months now and I must say my interest in televisions and the technology that comes with them has grown excessively. I currently have a 75 inch Q60a Qled Samsung it’s all I can afford lol! I love the tvs you guys post im a total sucker for a great looking picture and I must say these videos don’t help my obsession 😂 love what your doing it’s great and thanks for explaining everything your great hope you get to 1 million subs soon!
There is such thing as option overload. I’m feeling nostalgic for the days of just brightness and contrast adjustments!
Well done and well explained was waiting for something like this for all the people out there that aren’t quite sure what they should do with their settings.
Great video… good delivery and pace and above all useful info presented in an understandable way.
Caleb, your videos are always super helpful. I have one suggestion to make: When I first started with adjusting picture settings on my tv's it took me a while to catch on to the fact that you have to be watching a show that is broadcast or stream in the mode that you want to be adjusting, such as Dolby Vision, HDR, SDR, etc. And that once you make settings adjustments for that mode, the tv(hopefully) will revert to the settings you previously made for that mode. I realize that for most people that watch your videos and actually make picture setting adjustments, this information might be literally innate knowledge, but for those of us that were starting out make custom adjustments, it really took a while to come to that realization.
John, you are spot on.... Like you, I had to learn the hard way as to having the tv content set to my desired tv program...i.e. SDR (cable) Dolby Vision Netflix ..etc. Would be nice if others can mention that as a "requirement for us novices.. LOL!
I'm late to the party but just bought a TV so here I am 6 months later. Thank you Caleb, this was quite helpful. When my new TV arrives, I'll be sure to cast Vivid & Sports modes straight into hell in your name lol... I haven't bought a new TV in a while, so all of these are still a bit daunting but watching this video gives me more confidence in at least being able to fake my way through the set-up.
Very good video and applies to almost every TV :)
I have a QN90B from Samsung and my personal preference for both SDR and HDR is Standard Mode as it is generally brighter. I also like it because I like to add a little bit of sharpness which helps with HD content in my opinion. The only things I change depending on what I am watching are Color tone and Color space. Standard color tone is sometimes too blue and cold so I switch to Warm1 (personally I would like something in-between). And Native color space sometimes has very unrealistic green colors so I switch it to Auto. In the end it depends on what your eyes are used to and how the content you are watching has been edited (post-processing can make a huge difference in how an image look).
This is our first smart tv,had no idea I could change picture settings. Thank you for your information.
Can't say enough how great this channel is - Thanks Caleb!
Great video...with some great ideas. You are spot-on with your recommendations! And your suggest to "play around with the settings..." if the best advice you can give...Thanks for your time.
@caleb
Been watching your videos for some time now, ever since I bought an LG B2 OLED a few months ago, and connected it with a JBL Bar 1000 for some cool home theatre setting. I thought I should mention this: Apart from all the information you give out that's been super useful for a not-an-expert-but-likes-to-tinker-with-settings kinda person like me, the thing I have most enjoyed, almost as much as the information itself, is your casual but wonderful sense of humour. Makes watching your videos all the more fun, and not just useful (which it also is aplenty). So here's a shoutout to you: Thank you for taking the trouble to make these videos. You have made a difference to my life from across the other side of the planet, and for that I'm grateful.
Cheers
Roy, from far-away India.
Thank you this is a great starting platform can play with your suggestions to improve further.
All hail to Vivid Mode.
Honestly I appreciate this. I used to love vivid mode because it's bright but with newer TVs it looks way over done. I'm getting my first oled so videos like this help explain why certain seeing exist.
If it's an LG then go with Filmmaker mode with the OLED Light (not to be confused with brightness) adjusted according to preference and Cinema or Cinema Home for Dolby Vision content. For gaming you'd wan't Game picture mode with colour temp set to Warm 2 and ALLM on if supported.
I got my LG CX a couple of years ago (while it was current) and have loved it ever since.
Thank you so much for this video bro, I'm really into tvs and elections and stuff, but I've always had a hard time trying to figure out all of the pre sets and which ones changed which things and all that, but thank you so much for clarifying all that for me, I never realized vivid mode was trash, and had it in 90 percent of the time, thanks!
The best setting I have ever found in a TV is the natural motion setting in clarity section on my LG nanoscreen. It's like you are on the set with the cast, amazing depth! I set this up under my standard setting.
Another excellent video. We'll see where the options go in a year or two, but Dolby Vision done correctly is amazing.
Subscribed. Your videos are very grounded. Helpful with things that matter. And my little brain understands your words!
I use calibrated calibrated dark movie mode and whatever picture mode I think is best for a specific brand of TV. Once you have some experience with using picture settings you can find a picture that you like to watch. I haven't had any of my TV's calibrated but I do know how to use the TV picture settings to my advantage. As far as color temperature I've found that warm is really the best. I'm another one of those people who don't really like motion settings and like a natural picture as possible. But everyone has their own preference for tuning up their own TV's
I just got an LG C2. I find standard mode with the colors turned to warm are the best for me. Filmmaker mode was nice. But it completely kills all that HDR pop. I like the colors to pop but not too too much. So standard with a few adjustments seems to be the best .
I use movie mode most of the time as my TV and gaming rigs are in a room with blackout curtains, and then turn on and off Game Mode as needed. Keep in mind I am using a TCL 43" UHDTV as both my TV and computer monitor. So when watching stuff on any number of the streaming services I use, I just turn game mode off, then, when I go in and play World of Warships or fly in DCS: World or Microsoft Flight Simulator, I just turn on Game Mode for the reduced input lag, and aside from an almost unnoticeable drop in picture quality, the input lag drops considerably which is great for fighting games, first person shooters and great for the fine inputs needed to hover a helicopter.
very helpful video tq.but what is the best picture setting for sony tv(x900h) custom or cinema.plz do make a video featuring sony tvs picture setting and processing capabilities especially clarity setting
Yes, it was helpful. Going through your TV "pick your pic" videos. I am armed and ready to do it. Thanks.
Don't forget your 4k player has picture modes that need to be adjusted. I noticed on playing The Fog for example was to Dark.
Then I remembered to go and set the LG 4k players picture mode. You need to do this unfortunately ever disk you play because it resets to Standard picture mode. This fixed the darkness problem.
The better the TV is better in general but you need to still check this setting. Good Video.
Thank you for the suggestions It was very helpful.
Love your content, subbed 😂
Vivid mode is fine just relax
Yes. Very helpful. I need to keep exploring my settings
Glad it was helpful!
Very, very helpful. Thank you.
You should choose whichever looks best for you. On my oled LG I like the Isf modes for both games and movies. Looks great.
On my Panasonic lcd I chose cinema for movies with warm 2. And standard mode for video games with warm 1. Sharpness 0 for everything. Everything else off.
There’s not 1 choice for everything.
Great content. Can you do a video on sound? Don't know about you but all new movies and shows seem to have dialog set lower. I thought it was me till I watched older programming. Any new sets coming out that can boost dialog or reduce music? Thanks.
Thanks for your suggestions
I got my colors back.........
Thanks I needed this
I have IMAX Enhanced on my Sony, love how that looks.
Helpful for general info. It would be great if the menus for the 5-6 most popular TVs were actually walked thru showing modes and what other “tweeks” are best and where to find them. Also mention how they work with diff inputs and if the settings follow the inputs.
I used to fiddle with picture settings constantly, trying this reviewer's settings or that reviewer's settings and I just got tired of the constant fiddling and never being satisfied. So I decided to simplify my watching by resetting all the settings first, then carefully choosing which factory picture mode looked best to ME based on the content I was watching. I settled on Standard for watching sports during daytime hours (Sony's is very good) and Custom for movies any time after setting Custom close to Cinema Pro with just a touch of motion smoothing. I'll occasionally switch to Cinema Pro or Cinema Home for movies. For sports at night in a dark room I'll enable Light sensor. On my old Sonys I turn the Black Level down to 40 (from 50) for the deepest blacks.
And you're right, Vivid and Sports are just too cold and obscenely bright for my taste. HDR and Dolby Vision bright for daytime and dark for nighttime. I wish I had an ISF Mode on my sets.
Just turn on vivid mode and change your white balance to a warmer one.
Both bright and """colour accurate"""
I have seen every other mode in my lg C1 ok?
I like vivid for some reason, the cinema mode makes it look like everything is yellow. I feel like my TV got jaundice. But lately I have been noticing the blue tint in my vivid mode. So I gone to my picture settings, increased the oled pixel brightness and made the white balance to cold 10 which made the whites look neutral, at least to my eye.
BTW I don't care what the director of the film intended the colour to look like, I will just prefer whatever looks good according to me
I'm the calibrator to my eye so idc.
Long message whoever read gets hatsoff
Reminds me of when people get pompous about "authentic" Mexican food. Like... that doesn't mean it tastes good. And everybody has their own way of going things.
@@dickriggles942 idk what you are taking about but I feel like u agree with me🤣
@@randomstorm1973 TL;DR, do what you like and stop letting other people decide for you.
Yep I just did a sanity check and ISF modes on my 2nd Gen OLED looks yellow. VIVID is 100% oversaturated, we know.
@@brbubba yeah, if you change the picture mode to vivid without the 2 point caliberation that Caleb does, then it looks fine, once you make the oled's standard( i mean the picture without post processing) less yellow then the vivid is gonna look more blue. I use vivd, which has lower blue tint than standard , at Warm 5, which is such a sweet spot that it looks soo good. but in HDR i prefer the blue tint as it provides an illusion that the oled is brighter, i am both an LG CX as well as a C1 owner and im pretty sure, thi ssetting looks the same on both.
Does this apply to watching cable broadcast tv? Everything mentions movies and gaming
Kudos for getting to 1M! And thanks for the data. (Also, thanks for not showing yourself from the side when you're not even talking to a live audience, which I find phony and annoying when people do it.)
My C1 65 lives on Vivid mode with two clicks down on the saturation. Looks spectacular!
Thanks for the information. I use to use Vivid when I first bought my 4K OLED TV. Based on a previous vlog of yours. I started using Cinema. But I strongly disagree about occasionally using Vivid. When I watch a 4K stream or BlueRay and 4K DVD, especially with animation, Vivid is what I use. I find the color is brilliant and the picture looks almost like 3D. I use Cinema for everything else. After buying a 4K OLED TV, I feel that Vivid has some uses and shouldn’t be dismissed entirely.
@Leonard Krasner, I also use Vivid. I just got my Sony A80J yesterday. Vivid mode is just so beautiful to me. I love it.
I have a Samsung AU7700. I use Filmmaker Mode. It has good natural colors, and no motion smoothing.
Vivid Mode in my TV looks garish, horrible.
There is an old TV here at home that I use vivid mode, because that TV is so bad that Vivid Mode is the only way to give that TV any appeal in the image.
I agree with you, almost completely. I've got a 2016 Samsung 4K, and I have really enjoy the Vivid mode. As per that previous vid, I switched to Cinema, and it's much better than what I was used to. Maybe it's the age of my unit and the microdot LED rather than OLED technology. Both modes are great, in their respective places.
I use vivid all the time.
I use vivid all the time on my 77” A80J. The XR processor works well with vivid mode.
Onkyo AV receivers with Audyssey have a picture setting that includes ISF Day/Night, plus other picture settings. Combined with the available pictures settings on your TV, the picture is at it's absolute best for your taste. It's a shame that Onkyo decided to switch to AccuQ, which in my opinion, is horrible. Thanks for this enlightening video, because I just upgraded my TV from the Samsung F8000 to the Hisense UG7, and while it doesn't have as many picture settings as the Samsung, the picture is decent, and I've learned from this video how to tweak the picture to it's best.
Great video man! I have a question that never seems to be asked, can you lower the panel brightness on filmmaker mode for both SDR and HDR without compromising it's inbuilt colour accuracy?
Thank you for the information.
What are the best sets for someone that does not watch many movies just primarily sports and tv shows and a little Warzone on occasion? Is OLED more of a movie watchers tv?
Very helpful. I have a 2016 65" Samsung 4K, and I've been locked on vivid almost from the beginning. I saw one of your other vids, you advised turning to Cinema Mode, which I did. I hated it, too "warm", actually too dull and yellow, BUT I held out as advised. It's not bad after a week! I've jiggled up the contrast, pulled back a tad on the back light. It doesn't pop the way Vivid does, but it's a much better picture now than I was expecting. I'm not thrilled with the sports mode, but I like the idea of the higher picture refresh rate - 120 vs 60fps. But the color isn't great. I'm gonna boost the jiggle and the jutter speeds next and see what happen. Sadly, I've fallen in love with that SONY 77" OLED that my wife says I can't have. Gorgeous picture in the Big Box Warehouse store with the ultra bright florescent lighting. You just might be saving me a lot of money, and making my wife a happier woman with these vids. Thanks for the help!
Dude is she your mother? Your an adult. You want that oled, you go get yo self that oled
Tbh, I have to watch almost everything in vivid on my tv just so I can see what is happening - certainly when watching movies or tv shows through my Android streaming box. Standard, Cinema modes et al, are all so damn dark.
Same here I agree
I have a question what is your option on LG up8270 the 86 version . Haven’t seen any review on this model everything is the up8000 model . Big difference bettyhe two
Thanks for going thru all of this. On the LG TV I had been using Game Mode with several adjustments, because it looked really good to me, and still does in a way. Ironically, I have never played games on the TV and never will. Then I discovered Cinema Mode after reading about and found that it's really better, since I mostly watch movies from every period on the TV. It did take a while to get used to Cinema Mode but I'm glad I settled on it.
Try Filmmaker with the OLED Light adjusted to your preference and then Cinema for Dolby Vision. Once I learned that combo I haven't looked back.
I do Game a lot so I have to use the Game picture mode then, but turning down Sharpness and setting colour temp to Warm 2 (same as Filmmaker and Cinema modes) gets the job done.
Do u know How to get it saved please
Why the mode settings never stays as i changed to cinema, it comes back to vidio itself?
Tried all those settings, Dolby Vision FTW!!!
Embarrassingly, the first thing I did while watching this video was switch out of the vivid mode. Then again, I have a Vizio tv that's over 10 years old and both its picture and life is nearing the end. I found and subscribed to your channel about a month ago and plan on upgrading to a Hisense QLED with a Vizio M512a-H6 sound bar in the next month or two. Your videos helped a lot in picking my next tv. I can't comment much on the picture modes you discussed because mine included modes like golf, basketball, game, video and custom. One fun note. I adjusted the settings for my custom mode to a high-contrast, dark black and white to watch modern movies with a noir feel. It went well with Logan.
Woah, I can totally see Logan looking awesome with a noir filter. That first scene would've had serious kill bill/sin city vibes!
Actually, Vivid Mode has a purpose. At least for me it does. Since it is garbage at a default, one thing it's good for is as a starting point for very bright sun lit rooms. I just adjust things down, contrast, saturation etc and it becomes a great Daytime mode. The other modes just seem too dark in a bright room. Same concept of adjustment, just starting from the other end of the spectrum.
So one thing I'm struggling with a bit. The tv keeps changing profiles depending on the kind of content I'm watching.
For example, if I were to watch an HDR ready show on netflix, it suddenly changes the profile of the tv to vivid mode etc.
Same with playing games on ps5.
Should I set the mode for to filmmaker mode for almost, if not all content, or should I be letting the tv change to vivid mode for hdr content?
TY for this important video... My question has to do with channels that are dark and than when I put on the Bucks game the colors are perfect. Is there one setting that fix this, and be more consistent setting for all tv watching. Thank you.
Just purchased Sony 65’ A90J . Each picture mode feels appropriate for different views.
Should I have it professionally calibrated?
A few days ago I again sampled the "Retail Store" demo mode on my 2019 Samsung Q90R. It was stunning and reaffirmed that this TV usually looks wonderful, and can provide about as nice a picture as I have ever seen! After I put the TV back into "Home Use" mode, I examined the changes to the settings that the demo mode had made. The TV was in Dynamic Mode. Hmmm. Just sayin'. I do use Standard Mode during the day and often Movie Mode at night having watched so many CZcams videos that say Movie Mode, and now Filmmaker Mode, is the best way to use the TV. But until I got this TV in 2020, I always used whatever high-contrast "dynamic" mode was available. That may have been appropriate until even just a few years ago when TVs gained a brighter picture; but nonetheless, Dynamic Mode is still impressive.
Trust me dude. It's all trickery. I used to be that guy. Dynamic/Demo modes are designed to get your attention. Brightness and saturation are cranked up. It can give eye-catching visuals that really "pop" but it is not a realistic picture. Spend some time (we're talking at least a solid year) with a more accurate picture mode and you'll retrain your eyes. The vivid modes will still look vivid, but they're also look blue-tinted and generally off.
If you use an OLED set then vivid picture modes can even shorten the lifespan if your TV. Give Filmmaker, ISF or Cinema (depending on your set) a real shot and just crank up the backlight or OLED light depending on whether your screen is OLED or backlit.
In the end, it's all entirely your own choice according to your preference. Just be aware that those picture modes will not be giving you an accurate image out of the box. If you prefer a unrealistic image of your TV watching and prefer things to be more vivid than real life then go nuts. Just make sure that you're not falling for the trickery. It can really take some time to retrain your eyes to a more realistic image.
@@j800r_aswell With the 2022 Samsung models I use Movie Mode on its defaults for HDR movies, and Intelligent Mode/Optimized for everything else. But for years dark movies we’re a real problem. Sometimes I still max out gamma and shadow detail, or use Dynamic Mode, and even sometimes watch in SDR via Apple TV 4K, but thankfully this seems to have become less necessary with newer and brighter TVs.
Modes on TCL QM8 are different entirely. Each can be adjusted independently. I bough the QM8 after watching your review. All modes look terrific depending on external light .
My Sony A8H has two motion settings I'm confused about.
Motionflow, and CineMotion...what's the difference?
I typically use Custom, cinema, ISF. These typically are close to the ideal setting. I've been calibrating my tv's since early 90's where I used a ISF calibration laser disc. Today's tv's are very good, and you can really get away with just using cinema mode and call it a day. I will say Sony has always had the best color setting since their XBR CRT's.
I use cinema mode mostly myself as well for most everything I watch. I tweak a bit here & there of course, & watch videos like this on calibration settings and helpful hints.
i would love to use custom as it helps you create a mode from scratch, but LG does not allow custom
Yes, it typically cost a lot of money to have a professional calibrate a audio/video system so I would do it myself.
Thank you for making the argument for Warm50/ D.65 white point. I had no idea how conditioned I was into watching a cold, blown out picture.
Shout out to HDTV Test for really illustrating it using the snowy mountain Fellowship of the Ring.
Could you please tell me what you would set a LG 77 evo G1 picture ser up to?
What year did all these options become available? Our Samsung 55” Smart TV from 2013 doesn't have them.
Dolby vision bright on my Hisense H9G is sublime.
Great informative vid. Wondering when we can expect the LG G2 review from you and comparisons to the Samsung QD-OLED. Thanks!
With all of the changes to picture mode that is exactly why I stick the standard and do a little changes here and there
I have Sony 43x7500h ,pls suggest me what should be the HDR settings? As HDR looks washed out
I have an older TV, a Samsung F8500 Plasma. Using Movie mode for antenna TV, streaming, and PS4. Is that a good choice? I was considering switching to Standard for PS4 only.
Is Idle TV Standby the same as eco/power saving mode? I have a Xiaomi tv.
Avatar in Vivid looks mad Beaut!
Can you please answer this .I have a Hisense 50" U68G I'm in Canada so a U6G in US I'm guessing
In my picture settings I have Film maker mode but I can't click it ,If I can't access it then why is it there or do you need a high form of picture quality of the show or movie to use it?
Pls give me which is best Oled tv
LG Oled C2 vs Sony Oled A80J or A80K vs Samsung Oled?
Standard Mode is always the best to me. Other modes do not come close.
Can you use FILM Maker mode for watching anything? Even normal TV, news with moving bars at the bottom are not smooth? Or Am I supposed to change to standard mode when watching normal news channels?
Thanks for a nice video
my Hisense U6G
is showing problem of colour banding and posterization is it normal do i need to do something i have tested all preset setting but problem still persisting
I was thinking of getting a U6G 🤦🏾♂️ how long have you had it? Did you not get a warranty?
Caleb, is there a possibility of doing a follow up on a older TV? I bought the tcl r635 based partly on your recommendation, and I love it! When you initially reviewed that tv, you said that "normal" was the best option for picture mode. I feel like since then and updates later, that "normal" is no longer preferred. I feel like "movie" mode may be more the preferred setting now. I'd be interested in your take on this if you are able to get your hands on one to use again. Thank you.
For a lot of people I see, getting them to go from Vivid to Standard is progress...
I don't know about the latest high end TVs, but for most "LED" LCDs I suggest getting in the settings and turning down the Backlight if possible and room brightness permits. Better dark levels and much better chance of the thing holding up more than a few years and not turning purple. Give it some actual Brightness not Contrast if needed to bring out the signal. Oddly most of the dark modes and even Eco have max. backlight settings, planned obsolescence?
really good video!
Dolby Vision Dark is my go-to mode.
Great information.
hello your advice is great greetings
I am a vivid mode chick. The other settings are too dark
I just recently got a Sony A90K and was having a heck of a time removing all motion processing. Just turning off everything I could find wasn't working and it wasn't until someone suggested I try 'Game Mode' that I found the solution. I had to go in and tweak the colors to my liking, but the motion was *so* much better. The difference was amazing. So much for 'Cinema Mode'. 🙄
It is known from Sony TVs that the customer mode has the most accurate setting out of the box. in this mode you can of course tweak even further and turn off certain 'improvement settings' or sometimes set it to low.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a picture setting that looks best while watching animated content? I'm just using standard atm, but im curious if there's an out of the box setting that'll look better.
I love sports mode for watching soccer / baseball. Much easier to see the teams and don't care if the color isn't perfect. It's great for sports.
True for sports. Use sport mode
No it's not. It's way too bright. Standard mode is better.
@@Revolver1981 I believe you have an opinion--thank you for sharing that opinion like it is the only valid opinion. Welcome to American tolerance where other people's opinions are not allowed.
I love your channel. I bought the Sony 75X950G based on your recommendation. I will get the 85 QD Oled by Sony if it ever comes out.
Awesome! Glad to hear it.
Hey Caleb can you give me the best settings for Sony a80ck 77in tv thanks
Live the videos man!!! What settings would you use on the new Vizio MQX 75"? I'm getting mine in a few days and went to get ahead of the delivery. Thank you!!!!
I have a new 86 inch LG TV can you tell me what to turn off so it doesn't cause screen etching over the years thank you
I have a Hisense U7G. I use Standard Mode and manually turned off just about everything. Motion Smoothing, Noise Reduction etc. My Contrast & Brightness are both set at 50. My Color is set at 43 & Sharpness is set way down to 7. I used many CZcams TV setup sites at 4K and HDR. Even the blackest blacks show detail like shadows etc. That was hard to get just right. The color is as vivid as you'll ever see naturally or as mild on some videos, had to compromise. Can't stand glowing color. It's as bright as it can get without it looking washed out or blooming.
I hope these ideas help you to set up your own TV. Plan on spending MANY hours going back and forth and remember, changing one setting may change another setting, like brightness affects the contrast setting etc. Good luck and happy viewing.
I'm too used to 'Standard' mode that if I change anything the picture immediately looks off.
What is the 'best' setting for streaming? 'Cinema' mode, maybe? I'll try to get used to the proper one when I learn which one it is for TV and movie streaming.
Cheers for the info. It's all new to me.
At least turn off motion smoothing in the Standard mode. Or try to change its settings so that it will be minimal and give you no soap opera effect and no artifacts.
I select Movie/ Cinema mode just to make sure all the so-called 'enhancers' are turned off in the advanced picture section.
Then, I center all the basic adjustments( Contrast, Bright, Color, Tint, sharp).
Next I use HD Video Essentials Blu Ray, or, Spears & Munsil patterns online - the highest res versions I can find, to set those basics to their ideal settings.
My Samsung has a blue only mode for accurately setting the color and hue.
What I end up with is what believe to be as accurate a picture as possible up to before a grayscale job.
Guests seem to notice how realistic the picture is, particularly when it feels like the news anchor is sitting right there, or, it's like looking through a window at a sporting event.
I would be interested to see a review of the new Samsung QN95B. The smart calibration via the Smart Things app doesn't work on the latest Samsung S22 phone 🤔🤔
Tv is overrated and you can brick it using the phone calibration
Dynamic for all (samsung)
My Sanyo TV has Standard, MIld, Vivid, and Manual. That's all. Manual requires I select all kinds of values I do not understand. So "Mild" maybe for best picture?
Informative!
