Football broadcasts showing pitches in various shades of green patches

[Martin770]

I have just received my new Panasonic 2024 65" television (65Z8OAEY OLED HDR 4k Ultra HD. Have always bought Panasonic over the years). When watching live and even recorded football every game reduces the pitch to various shades of green patches . The pitch tends to get closer to a correct colour when the camera moves to closer shots. So it's at its worst when covering the entire pitch.  Other than the pitch the colour of the game is fine. I have tried various options, including colour settings, and cinema, filmmakers, and sport options on my tv setup but simply cannot find anything that resolves the issue. On all other tv programmes the colour is superb, with no problems. Is this a sky transmission error or my tv? I hasten to add this is on all games I have watched, not just the one in the photos. Have never experienced anything like this before. My previous tv was a 55" Panasonic. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks

Is this in UHD?

is your Q box set to output 2160/10bit?

Hi Chodley 

Thanks for this.

Yes, UHD.

Forgive my ignorance but how do I check the output setting?

[Martin770]

Just found it, yes it is set up 2160 10 bit

I can't see any issue with the shots posted myself...

Same, it looks normal to me.

having seen the photos now, I agree with the above - probably just that your TV is so much better than the old one you can actually see the grass mowing effect when it just looked like a snooker table before.

Thank you all. You are so right. I'm watching the final now and all is as you say. I'm sorry for wasting your time but it has been very useful for me. Thanks again.
