2160p 10 bit - supported? 4K LG G4.

[slipd]

Hi guys, 

I was looking at my box settings recently and I notice that I was only set to 1080i... Pretty sure I'd set this to 2160p previously, but hey ho. Anyway, I can't appear to set the res to 2160p 10 bit, despite it being supported. Best I get is 8.

Thoughts? I'm using very decent 8K HDMI cables to my devices.

Thanks.

hi @slipd 

Check the settings in your TV's menu for the HDMI you are using, I can't remember the setting specifically for LG but look for options like Deep color, Enhanced (I think that is Sony)  - although I think most modern TVs now default to these it is worth checking

Hi @slipd   What is the length of the cable?

[slipd]

1.8/2m I think.

Just looked at my HDMI cable specs: 8 and 12 bit are supported. No mention of 10. Could it be that possibly?

Any cable which supports 12bit (which would have to be HDMI 2.2) will also support 10 bit.

@slipd as @nigea99 stated you need to find the deep color setting on your TV and activate it then you should be able to use 10bit

Think I've sorted it... it applies anyway 😂

It was just a colour tweak in settings. 

Thanks everyone.
