Does anyone have good picture settings for Glass gen 2.

Ive copied the ones from previous posts and they do improve things but sometimes the blacks are quite pixelated.

Thank you

@Abdn607 These were posted in April by another customer. See what you think:

Measurements for HD/SD as follows:

Auto back-light off

Back-light 75-80. Adjust if you find the image to dark

Aspect ratio auto

HDR/DV pic mode dark

Contrast 46

Sharpness 0

Brightness 51

Colour 55

Hue 50

White balance

RG 12

GG 0

BG -6

RO 18

GO 0

BO -22

Local dimming on

Colour management

Red 51, 61, 0

Green 56, 30, 1

Blue 53, 52, 1

The rest don't change so controls don't work properly.

Pixellated blacks are often the result of poorly encoded, low bit-rate source material.

What are you watching when you see it at its worst?

Was mainly itv but watched an old atar trek movie on sky movies and was quite bad.

Possibly due to it being an old film

ITV content is often poorly encoded and Sky Movies too can vary a lot in quality, especially if only viewing in HD.

A UHD HDR source with a higher bit-rate from the likes of Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ or Apple TV+ will give you better image quality. Many of the more recent movies on Sky Cinema on demand can look decent in UHD with HLG HDR too.
