Re: Sky HDR

@Anonymous  which is why I mentioned LG Oleds only as I can't comment on other models I've had both my c7 and C9 calibrated and others on the forums have had The New CX calibrated and all have been calibrated to 0.

Re: Sky HDR

@Anonymous  your just reiterating my point and it's proven the 0 is the default setting 10 adds no sharpness but an edge enhancement filter kind of like the separate settings LG used to have

So, if you've had your TV calibrated, the calibrator will have used a pattern generator to determine the point of which your image is most accurate, post calibration, once the colour errors have been corrected.

For a non-calibrated C9, the flat point is still the default of 10. No picture processing is being added or taken away. It's not up for debate, it's a fact.

 

If you wish to dispute it, please post on the C9 thread over on AV Forums.

@Anonymous  also please show me the facts of your findings rather than copy and pasting things you think you have heard theres also a reason why in ISF bright it's set to wide and that is to offset uncalibrated sets because as. TV expert you will know the brighter a room the more the colours are perceived to dull. I'm not saying it's the most accurate like that but that is why it was done. ISF are set standards

Re: Sky HDR

With the C9 I notice some of the other presets give a value of 20 for sharpness. I haven't looked at the other settings. However, with the standard setting I have used up to now I disabled all motion processing but this does have a Sharpness setting of 20 out of the box. I have altered Gamut to Auto BTW.

Re: Sky HDR

Hi @Piesarus 

I think we have had a similar conversation before about LG OLED as try as  I might I could not get a setting that delivered watchable pictures  from all sources on an LG C9 OLED and I had to get it exchanged for a Samsung QE55Q85R.  The dark scenes were unwatchable on the OLED.  But I too have ageing eyeballs, the TV is in a bright room and I am maybe less patient than you.  Or as I suggested on a previous thread perhaps my TV was a duff one but I couldn't cope with having to adjust everything every time I watched a programme in a different format.  This Samsung  and my KS9000 before it just worked out of the box.  And now with the Sky HLG enhancement the Q85R just handles it automatically without having to twiddle the settings.

 

Yes I am fortunate in that my previous V1 2TB box crashed and was replaced with a V2 and the HDR HLG pictures are pretty clearly a great enhancement just as they are on the TVs native apps (AppleTV+, Disney +, Netflix and Amazon Prime)

Re: Sky HDR

@gems+151  I have just had a look at our other LG, this is a 2018 Ultra HD LCD model. Whilst 'isf expert bright room' is good for the OLED, it's appearance (to me at least) is blooming awful on the LCD. It's hard to believe it's the same setting.

Re: Sky HDR

With having a version 1 box is there any talk of swapping them for a newer version. As I believe it we only lease or borrow them now and don't own them so surely could be swapped

@Carl999999  If you take the trouble to read back, even just a few pages you will see lots of answers to your query including some links. I wouldn't bust a gut to change though as the content is severely limited. Depends how much you like Lemurs. 🤣

You will, unfortunately, like me have to wait until Sky starts to replace the V1 boxes with newer boxes who are able to give you , me ,and the rest the Sky HDR we want.
