Thanks so much Darko!! Late to this party but just bought the 65GX for my 75 year old mum and had it installed for her yesterday. Now I will go over to refine her viewing experience utilising your Expert Bright room setting adjustments. Much appreciated. Take care.
Amazing video. I use all the same settings however have slight adjustments to sharpness at 15 (over 10), and also use cinema clear (light motion) on all sources. I find this mix has worked the best for me. Sharpness being a little higher seems to improve text and numerals in regards to better legibility
Yes please, and hurry before the Super Bowl. Out of the box my BX is laughable, the football looks like it is flashing on and off on passes. Might have to watch on my 10 year old TV, it is better!
Hello and congratulations for the video, listen for the trumotion how can you get the maximum sharpness and fluidity of the image? I left De judder at 4 and de blur at 10 and medium motion pro, how do they seem to you as settings, are they okay too?
Hi I just bought the BX in Xmas sales as it’s the cheapest OLED, not sure whether I made a mistake though or not. Comparing to my friends B9 from 2019, the B9 seems better. Where can I buy the cals oration settings, how much do they cost and are they worth it? Thanks
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost my password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Yael Jackson Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
How do I adjust picture to stop pixelation when watching sports ? I.E. The grass changes colors and the pixels are noticeable for a brief moment....sorry if don’t make sense as I’m a neophyte when it comes to these things.......finally appreciate the videos you provide
Generally this depends on the quality of the input signal - TV can do only so much if a highly compressed signal arrives - MPEG Noise reduction control in picture options menu could help a little bit.
Newbie here to these tv's,,,, so if I want to watch a film then sport then normal tv channels do I need to go into settings every time for best results????
Hi - it contains 2 point white balance controls but mainly for information. Color settings are completely individual and same goes for 10/20/22 point white balance values and that’s the reason they are not included. All my tests have shown that you can do more harm by copying those values than to keep the default values.
Great vid! I found out that the soap opera effect is very pleasing in fast movement content, like sports, but I fail to see any negative aspect of having it turned on, so I leave it this way for every content/input. Can you comment on that? Thanks
It is works well for you, then for sure use it. Usually you could notice artefacts (strange behaviour of pixels) around the objects in motion, usually with movies.
A little late for this question, but I have a ShieldTV 2019 I use with a 2013 HD Samsung .And Have a LG 48CX coming this week and I'm wondering which to use for streaming TV ? Local service (upscaling) Netflix/Disney etc ...built in the TV's Smart services, or Android on the Shield with AI upscaling
Hi, do you thing it's worth it to buy a 5 years warranty that covers the burn-in when i buy the lg cx, it's going to cost around 22% of the actual tv price. thank you for all your hard work.
Really? 22% more? I think it is not worth it if you take care of your panel - you can see my best practices in this video - th-cam.com/video/renV1x2xTAY/w-d-xo.html
Great video! What do you suggest for the input I have my apple tv 4k on? I have settings inside the apple tv 4k, but was wondering what actual tv settings to use? Thanks!
Question: I have a PS5. I watch Netflix on it and obviously also game on it. Do I have to switch picture modes when I switch from gaming to Netflix? Like go from game picture mode using your settings to Cinema picture mode using your settings?
It should be automatic. But I would recommend using ps5 strictly for gaming and the internal Netflix app for movies. This way you will have perfect settings
@@itguru2037 Thanks for the reply! One more question! For HDR settings, when Darko says Cinema/Filmmaker Picture Mode does he mean just leave it at that and don’t tweak setting. Same for Dolby Vision. When he mentions Dolby Vision, all he says is “Cinema Picture Preset”. So does that mean I use that preset with no tweaks at all too?
@@AyyItsNovak yes that’s correct. This set is very good out of the box. Of course you can just pay Geek squad 199$ and get a custom calibration for movies and one for gaming. Well worth it. I did on my 77 inch and it’s amazing.
I noticed that the menu colour (pink) in your movie is very light and soft and pastel. How did you achieve it? In my tv it's very bright. Also, is there any way to lower the brightness of welcome/title screens in TH-cam, Netflix, etc? I have the impression that no matter what I do, the red colour is burning my eyes (other colours too). Thanks for advice.
Great video. I didn’t see much difference between isf bright room with auto gamut and cinema so I just went with cinema. You said cinema is really good too right?
Hey, yes, Cinema is also good so you can use it. It depends on the content - on some you would see quite a significant difference between Auto and Wide gamut options.
I watched and adjusted as u suggeted my CX, but u didnt explained the last part, The Oled ScreenSsaver with three very important segments, Pixel Refresh, Sceen Shift and Logo Luminance. Can you pls suggest for these as well .
Hi Rick - settings files provide general recommendations for optimum picture, but for 2020 TVs haven't been updated since I no longer have access to that TV. In any case, Black level should be set to Auto for the display to properly show input signal range and the issue of raised blacks if it is solved will be properly displayed with this setting.
Just purchased a GX 77” and I’m having trouble engaging BFI. It’s grayed out and I cannot access its settings. Also, after first watch and evaluation I noticed some vertical banding on the left side of the screen with a faint black line down its center at certain high luminance levels. It seems to have dissipated after some use and now hard to detect. Is this just the pixels adjusting and settling in since it’s so new or should I be worried and replace the panel while I still can. Also, have you noticed any raised blacks while watching DV content in the Cinema or Cinema home picture modes? It was recommended to lower the brightness from 50 to 48-49 to counteract this. Thanks!
I purchased your SDR and HDR PDFs, but for Dolby vision, there is no “Cinema” setting on my tv. Right now I have it on standard, but there is also vivid, cinema bright, cinema dark and game modes available for Dolby vision. Can you elaborate on settings?
Hello Jeffrey! Thanks for the purchase. Which LG OLED model do you own? If Cinema is missing, then you can apply recommendations to the Cinema Dark which is the most precise out of the box.
@@anonymous4201 well in SDR the result (imo) was too dim,but the HDR settings was good. But In order to be satisfied I went to the service menu and then opted for BT 2020.Eventually that do the trick.
Hey, HDR settings are only available in my calibration store payhip.com/b/NrL4. Just scan is not available for all sources. Usually if the picture looks OK you do not need to worry about it.
Hi. wen I look at Dolly Vision Cinema the picture is a little too dark and has not the HDR feeling... in cinema-home it gets extremely bright. my solution was to dimm down oled light in cinema-home dolby vision... you mention copying the settings of cinema to cinema home ... how do you do that? which is the main thing to adjust not to get extremely bright but brighter picture? Thank you
So for clarification, to have Dolby Vision IQ properly working u have to set Energy Saving to AUTO and AI Brightness to ON within DolbyVISION Cinema Home/Standard?!?
@@TVguyDarko Yes after some research and fiddling around with it, it seems "AI Brightness' is automatically active when using DolbyVision presets Cinema Home/Standard. Also the 'AI Brightness' has no effect on SDR and Energy Saving, it only works for HDR...
Hi. Thank you for making this video. It was really helpful. Subscribed. Anyway I have one question. Is there any difference in sharpness set to 20 from 10. I have bx OLED and Dolby vision home and HDR home cinema has sharpness set default to 20. I turned down to 10 but now picture looks not as sharp and detailed. Any idea what's going on.
Hi and thanks for subscribing! Ideally sharpness should be checked with test patterns in native resolution to see at which value TV is additing artificial sharpening on objects. This is my goal when I calibrate and assest the picture, but I always say - if you picture looks better for you, increase it a bit - not too much, but in your case value of 20 sounds good.
Hi, I’m considering buying this tv but I’m concerned about black crush/lost shadow detail relative to the Sony A8H, can this be corrected through calibration?
15:09 you didn’t show how to get to that screen for HDR Are you using a 2.1 hdmi cable? I’m using 2.0 so I can’t alter the free sync etc settings I think that’s why?
Hey - I was using a standard High speed HDMI cable. Strange that you cannot alter Freesync settings - do you have TV connected to a PC/laptop/console that supports it?
Thank you for your video. I purchased both of your calibration sheets Have you Dark room settings PDF to Buy? CX 65 or should I use the settings of Moviemaker Mode for darkroom settings?
Hi - thanks for the purchase! You can use tips to create Dark room settings - you can have for example Expert bright room with higher OLED LIGHT value and Filmmaker mode for darker environment. General tips are the same for both scenarios related to other settings.
Is super resolution on with HDR ? I am using LG UK850 monitor and I love super resolution I keep it on high and with good distance the image is very sharp and full of details but when I turned on HDR it gets locked to low and I cannot change any settings ,, is this the same with oled lg CX ? Because I am buying one soon
Guys, i have an doubt: my sat box is 4k, always i turn on my cx hdr mode enables. I want isf expert but i cant because the hdr is acctivated like default, cinema n etc. can i turn off or its normal? Thx a lot for the help!
My LG OLED CX just had a changed screen, and I realized that the white is not so white. It seems to me that the white has a little bit of pink, you know how I can solve it?
I bought both HDR and SDR settings, but in my TV expert settings and picture settings appear grayed out, like I'm in some kind of beginner mode.. Is there a solution for this?
Also bought the HDR settings - thanks. I couldn’t find a setting I was happy with and even the white balance settings seemed to improve my screen, was slightly pink before. What are your thoughts on enabling BT2020 from the “hidden” picture settings menu?
Hi. A question. Is it possibile on cx in hdr mode change white balance to reduce black crush? I did in isf mode and i had good result. Thank you. I watch netflix and amazon prime.
@@TVguyDarko I applied the settings for gaming to the game mode but I must say that the image is not the best, I find the brightnes mode more brilliant and defined but the colors are too bright. I'm looking for a good compromise for the gaming mode but I haven't succeeded yet, maybe the settings are not compatible with the BX or there is white to be calibrated but I'm not able to do it
I'm doing everything you saying to do, but most of my options are greyed out. Can't change most of it. I'm also very disappointed with TV Menus are to overwhelming. To much, why can't it just be a basic settings. I just bought this TV brand new Super disappointed
Hello! i bought both setting packs but was wondering if any of the settings can be applied for PC usage? im currently using a mac on the 55in LG CX? any help would be appreciated! thank you
Hey - thanks for the purchase. For PC usage TV should either detect such signal and adapt picture settings accordingly or you will need to change HDMI input name to PC. Perhaps this video could be of help - th-cam.com/video/PtRaHsaU0EU/w-d-xo.html
You set the De-Blur on 10 and the De-Judder is on 0. Is there a specific reason for it? What is the trade off and in which mode would you recommend to crank up De-Judder?
I have the CX 65 inch. Can i buy the SDR and HDR picture settings together or do i have to buy them seperatly? Will you do also a Dolby Vision version?
Hi Chris - thanks for the comment. Yes, to avoid softer image definitely increase Sharpness (and I would also turn on AI functions that might help in theory - I still need to see that in practice).
I agree with SD channels, the Sharpness needs to come up a notch when compared to watching 4K and higher FPS content. For standard TV, I use sharpness at 20, and generally carry 20 across to other sources too, except for high quality 4k sources where sharpness can come back down to 10 or 15. I am not a calibrator, however have played around with the setting for around 100hours now (LG CX 2020)
Hi Darko. Can you tell me how does energy saving on auto works to read the ambient light? I tried to find out on the internet but was unsuccessful. Is there a camera on the tv?
Hi! There is a light sensor on the bottom side of the TV which reads the amount of candelas per square meter and according to that controls the OLED light setting.
i use the apple tv box for netlflix with 4k dolby vision 60hz, but i also use iptv with hd resolution on the atv. What am I supposed to do now? should I still leave the input signal on 4k dolby vision 60hz or do I have to change the signal every time?
I have black crush in hdr mode in streaming tv. If i increase brigthness over 50, black isn't anymore black. Is it possibile change white balane in hdr mode? Thank you very much.
Yes, usually those settings should be kept at default, but if needed you can always tweak them. For example if HDR is too bright in dark room, then you can reduce OLED Light.
Hi i have cx just confused i only care about my sport and 4k top movies and hd shows what would be the best mode i have dark room even during the day so should inhave it on filmmaker or expert dark if i am in filmmaker mode is that hdr and how do inset to hdr mode
Hi Tom - yes, you should use Filmmaker mode for watching your content. TV will automatically switch to HDR mode and the depending on the content (HDR10 or DV) you can again select different presets.
Bought 65 GX, and i noticed that when screen is off in reflection i see that its warped. You can notice that only when screen is off, do you have anything similar? Funny from such high priced TV. When TV is ON, picture is perfect.
Per reddit: "It’s definitely a warp and not the anti reflection. Unfortunately it’s all part of the panel lottery. It’s caused by the top sheet (be it either glass or plastic) being so thin and the tension around the edges holding it in place. It only needs the slightest amount of difference in tension at one point around the edge for that area to get a slight warp. The chances of getting a pure flat panel at this build quality is probably as low as 20%. As long as the image is not affected it is considered acceptable, and unlikely to be a candidate for replacement unless you can make a very convincing argument that you can not live with it."
My sync is way out any but not on all channels any suggestions? Also The TH-cam app on tv is way out of sync but the fire stick with TH-cam is spot on which is strange?
Darko ja iman lg oled cx9 65zoll tv preuzeo san tvoje settings za tv jel mi triba ta software sta nudis za sdr i hd picture settings ili ne ? Hvala unaprid i lip pozdrav
Pozdrav Ivan! Softver za kalibraciju je potreban ako želiš najprecizniju moguću sliku. Uz softver potreban je i mjerni instrument, odnosno kolorimetar i naravno neko iskustvo da se razumije što se uopće želi postići. Ovih savjetima iz mojih videa se postigne cca. 90% prave kalibracije, te je to dovoljno dobro za kvalitetno uživanje u bojama i nijansama kako su kreatori to zamislili.
Hey :) thanks for your video ! I just bought an LG oled ! It seems so complicated.... to have a good image ! I hope I'm not gonna be lost with all these calibrations... :/
Yes, I agree it is very confusing, but take your time and go through settings. Trust me, it is not that hard and you will be happy with the end result.
@@TVguyDarko As soon as i get my new TV (this week) I'm gonna buy your pdf :) 5 buck is not that much ! Hope it's gonna help me ! Do you have any PDF wich give good advice how to take good care of my oled TV? Like how to avoid (at a certain degree) burn in, but are there any other good advices on how to use correctly an OLED tv and keeping it in good shape for a long time? This would be great :) Thanks mate !
Hi could get some advice I have a 65 inch bx tv when I connect my Xbox series x up on the menu screen of the Xbox the picture keeps going dim and light it looks dark I’m on game mode tried all settings but nothing helps
8:30 I didn't understand, if I put de blur to 10 the TV will interpolate every content to 120fps/hz? And then, in particular what is the difference between ed blur and de judder?
If you put De blur to 10 you will see the most details in motion as the panel will work at 120 Hz. For movies in 24p that means that each frame will be displayed 5 times. In this mode TV will not create new frames but just repeat the existing ones, so there will not be soap opera effect present. Soap opera effect - where TV will create new frames to make the image smoother will occur if you increase De judder control. That's why it is recommended to only increase De Blur to avoid unnatural looking movie content.
Hey, I recommend that you watch this video - th-cam.com/video/-JEFu2M2tt8/w-d-xo.html Warm1 is better than Standard/Cool, but it is not as accurate as Warm2.
@@TVguyDarko So is it normal that the picture looks yellow? It’s just that I also have a Panasonic TV and on that set the whites look white. And that’s on Warm.
Hey bro great video. One thing, is sharpness set to “10” definitely neutral sharpness as opposed to adding artefacts? I’ve seen some sources recommended changing it down to 0 for 4k content. Strange how LG sets it to 10 as default for game mode
Hey, I was pixel peeping and could not spot a difference between 0 and 10. That means that from a typical viewing distance these values are indistinguishable from each other and you should only increase Sharpness over 10 if you need some artificial boost in details for lower resolution content.
@@BalazsNyitray oh really? Because I haven’t read “Dolby Vision” anywhere on my settings which is why I’m wondering if there is something wrong. But also I use an Xbox & on the settings it is saying Dolby vision is the only feature that is not on for me?

All the three mentioned picture presets are in the same area - very accurate and you should the one that gives you the best image.
Thank you for your video.
I purchased both of your calibration sheets Have you Dark room settings PDF to Buy? CX 65
or should I use the settings of Moviemaker Mode for darkroom settings?
Hi - thanks for the purchase! You can use tips to create Dark room settings - you can have for example Expert bright room with higher OLED LIGHT value and Filmmaker mode for darker environment. General tips are the same for both scenarios related to other settings.
@@TVguyDarko Thank Darko for answer 👍
I find vivid to show the best picture
Best to eyes doesn't mean accurate.
@@ForeverVersatile if I pay 2000 for a TV I could care less about accurate. Accurate didn't pay for the TV.
@@eastknox865 wtf
Another great video thanks !
What picture settings help so you do not get burn in like my 2016 LG OLED TV?
Thank you Darko! I'd just like to know whether I should leave Peak Brightness at High for HDR streaming.
Hi Jon - yes, usually it should be set to High for HDR.
Is super resolution on with HDR ? I am using LG UK850 monitor and I love super resolution I keep it on high and with good distance the image is very sharp and full of details but when I turned on HDR it gets locked to low and I cannot change any settings ,, is this the same with oled lg CX ? Because I am buying one soon
Guys, i have an doubt: my sat box is 4k, always i turn on my cx hdr mode enables. I want isf expert but i cant because the hdr is acctivated like default, cinema n etc. can i turn off or its normal? Thx a lot for the help!
My LG OLED CX just had a changed screen, and I realized that the white is not so white. It seems to me that the white has a little bit of pink, you know how I can solve it?
I bought both HDR and SDR settings, but in my TV expert settings and picture settings appear grayed out, like I'm in some kind of beginner mode.. Is there a solution for this?
I bought a BX 2020 and would like help setting the images in SDR-HDR-Dolby Vision. I use Sky and PS5 .. Can you help me?
I just picked up the bx and I have blue tint when it should be white,does yours do that? Thanks
Also bought the HDR settings - thanks. I couldn’t find a setting I was happy with and even the white balance settings seemed to improve my screen, was slightly pink before. What are your thoughts on enabling BT2020 from the “hidden” picture settings menu?
Just bought a cx65 and it's getting here on Wednesday, what do you mean when you said bought the settings?
Try gamut Wide or extended versus HDMI override Bt2020 with color reduced to 36~44;
Where do you get those picture examples?
Also I have a CX and there is no auto option for Black levels.
Can I use these settings for a 2019 C9?
Hi. A question. Is it possibile on cx in hdr mode change white balance to reduce black crush? I did in isf mode and i had good result. Thank you. I watch netflix and amazon prime.
Hy i just bought sdr and hdr settings i hope they can help me get the best out of my 65bx
Thanks for the purchase! Yes, they are applicable to your model and should give you an improvement. Let me know if you need some support.
@@TVguyDarko I applied the settings for gaming to the game mode but I must say that the image is not the best, I find the brightnes mode more brilliant and defined but the colors are too bright. I'm looking for a good compromise for the gaming mode but I haven't succeeded yet, maybe the settings are not compatible with the BX or there is white to be calibrated but I'm not able to do it
I'm doing everything you saying to do, but most of my options are greyed out.
Can't change most of it.
I'm also very disappointed with TV
Menus are to overwhelming.
To much, why can't it just be a basic settings.
I just bought this TV brand new
Super disappointed
Hello! i bought both setting packs but was wondering if any of the settings can be applied for PC usage? im currently using a mac on the 55in LG CX? any help would be appreciated! thank you
Hey - thanks for the purchase. For PC usage TV should either detect such signal and adapt picture settings accordingly or you will need to change HDMI input name to PC. Perhaps this video could be of help - th-cam.com/video/PtRaHsaU0EU/w-d-xo.html
Wonder why Darko never adjusted the settings in the color management system. Everything is default in his calibrated files.
Hi - it is because default Auto setting is really accurate and all the small tweaks I do are unique to each panel and do not make sense to be copied.
My true motion is off and my motion eye care is also off. Any suggestions
Hi - is it greyed out? You cannot activate? Does it happen in all picture modes and inputs?
@@TVguyDarko I'm in game mode atm. Trying to get good pic for gaming. But everything is so dark or it's to bright cant find middle ground.
You set the De-Blur on 10 and the De-Judder is on 0. Is there a specific reason for it? What is the trade off and in which mode would you recommend to crank up De-Judder?
Why are people paying for calibration sheets.. just play about with the settings to what your eyes like, in the type of room your in!
Because they are idiots
When are you going to get your hands on the Sony a90j? you will love it lol
Really don’t know. If I’ll test a Sony TV, it would be something from the mainstream series.
I have the CX 65 inch. Can i buy the SDR and HDR picture settings together or do i have to buy them seperatly? Will you do also a Dolby Vision version?
Thank you for doing this. Any tips for settings with older SD tv shows? More sharpness to help with the fuzziness?
Hi Chris - thanks for the comment. Yes, to avoid softer image definitely increase Sharpness (and I would also turn on AI functions that might help in theory - I still need to see that in practice).
I agree with SD channels, the Sharpness needs to come up a notch when compared to watching 4K and higher FPS content. For standard TV, I use sharpness at 20, and generally carry 20 across to other sources too, except for high quality 4k sources where sharpness can come back down to 10 or 15. I am not a calibrator, however have played around with the setting for around 100hours now (LG CX 2020)
Hi Darko. Can you tell me how does energy saving on auto works to read the ambient light? I tried to find out on the internet but was unsuccessful. Is there a camera on the tv?
Hi! There is a light sensor on the bottom side of the TV which reads the amount of candelas per square meter and according to that controls the OLED light setting.
@@TVguyDarko Tnank you.
Hey there bought the HDR files earlier and cant be opened as it says they are corrupted. Any thoughts?
Hello friend, is it recommended to copy your 22 point settings?
Hello - not really, the values are individual for each TV.
Thanks this helped a lot
I am going to buy your guides as soon as TVs are installed.
Thanks.
Thanks so much! You wrote "TVs" - how many are you getting?
@@TVguyDarko I have the CX 55 ready and a Philips 9435 LED TV, do you have any instructions for calibrating the latter?
What about using these settings with warm 1? Or is warm 2 still the best? Seems yellow
Hey Val - Warm1 is close, but Warm2 is generally closer to the reference D65 whitepoint. More details here: th-cam.com/video/-JEFu2M2tt8/w-d-xo.html
i use the apple tv box for netlflix with 4k dolby vision 60hz, but i also use iptv with hd resolution on the atv. What am I supposed to do now? should I still leave the input signal on 4k dolby vision 60hz or do I have to change the signal every time?
Hi . How improve shadow details? I have much black crush also. Thank you very much
Hi - try by raising Brightness control. Also, if you are sending signal via HDMI, check out HDMI Black level if it is correctly set.
I have black crush in hdr mode in streaming tv. If i increase brigthness over 50, black isn't anymore black. Is it possibile change white balane in hdr mode? Thank you very much.
I saw another channel recommend 100 OLED Light and 100 Contrast for HDR/DV content. Is this true to get the most out of HDR?
Yes, usually those settings should be kept at default, but if needed you can always tweak them. For example if HDR is too bright in dark room, then you can reduce OLED Light.
Some say max contrast 97 to prevent clipping.
Still the best!
Great settings for SDR, thank you. I purchased the HDR settings from you... but it says for gaming. So do I use them for 4k blu ray settings?
I just found the file. Again just wanted to tell you how great my picture looks with your settings.
Hey David! Yes, two files are supplied - for 4K blu-ray you should use General settings file.
Hi i have cx just confused i only care about my sport and 4k top movies and hd shows what would be the best mode i have dark room even during the day so should inhave it on filmmaker or expert dark if i am in filmmaker mode is that hdr and how do inset to hdr mode
Hi Tom - yes, you should use Filmmaker mode for watching your content. TV will automatically switch to HDR mode and the depending on the content (HDR10 or DV) you can again select different presets.
@@TVguyDarko what presets you mean like cinema and expert
Bought 65 GX, and i noticed that when screen is off in reflection i see that its warped. You can notice that only when screen is off, do you have anything similar? Funny from such high priced TV. When TV is ON, picture is perfect.
Per reddit:
"It’s definitely a warp and not the anti reflection. Unfortunately it’s all part of the panel lottery. It’s caused by the top sheet (be it either glass or plastic) being so thin and the tension around the edges holding it in place. It only needs the slightest amount of difference in tension at one point around the edge for that area to get a slight warp. The chances of getting a pure flat panel at this build quality is probably as low as 20%. As long as the image is not affected it is considered acceptable, and unlikely to be a candidate for replacement unless you can make a very convincing argument that you can not live with it."
Why am I only getting vivid to sports mode? So no HDR or filmmaker mode or expert picture mode
My sync is way out any but not on all channels any suggestions?
Also
The TH-cam app on tv is way out of sync but the fire stick with TH-cam is spot on which is strange?
HDTV TEST says sharpness at 0 is neutral. Do you still recommend to leave it at 10?
Darko ja iman lg oled cx9 65zoll tv preuzeo san tvoje settings za tv jel mi triba ta software sta nudis za sdr i hd picture settings ili ne ? Hvala unaprid i lip pozdrav
Pozdrav Ivan! Softver za kalibraciju je potreban ako želiš najprecizniju moguću sliku. Uz softver potreban je i mjerni instrument, odnosno kolorimetar i naravno neko iskustvo da se razumije što se uopće želi postići. Ovih savjetima iz mojih videa se postigne cca. 90% prave kalibracije, te je to dovoljno dobro za kvalitetno uživanje u bojama i nijansama kako su kreatori to zamislili.
Hvala ti Darko na odgovoru! :-) onda cu ja to ostavit sad tako kako je sa tim settings iz videa super mi je slika! :-) Lip Pozdrav i dalje tako 🙏🏻
Thank you for this.
My pleasure!
Hey :) thanks for your video ! I just bought an LG oled ! It seems so complicated.... to have a good image ! I hope I'm not gonna be lost with all these calibrations... :/
Yes, I agree it is very confusing, but take your time and go through settings. Trust me, it is not that hard and you will be happy with the end result.
@@TVguyDarko As soon as i get my new TV (this week) I'm gonna buy your pdf :) 5 buck is not that much ! Hope it's gonna help me !
Do you have any PDF wich give good advice how to take good care of my oled TV? Like how to avoid (at a certain degree) burn in, but are there any other good advices on how to use correctly an OLED tv and keeping it in good shape for a long time? This would be great :)
Thanks mate !
Hi could get some advice I have a 65 inch bx tv when I connect my Xbox series x up on the menu screen of the Xbox the picture keeps going dim and light it looks dark I’m on game mode tried all settings but nothing helps
I don’t see the Expert Bright/Dark Room or the Eco presets, is there a way to get there? I can see the rest. Thanks!
Hey, is your TV in Store (Shop) mode?
Can you give your calibrated settings for watching sports ?
Same settings are for watching sports - you could increase OLED Light and alter gamma to get brighter image.
@@TVguyDarko awesome. Thanks for the advice 👍
Best off best LG tv
I know you are talking LG here.. But have any tips for the Vizio H1 oled 65 in....
Tip 1. Take it back an get an LG CX👌🏾
8:30 I didn't understand, if I put de blur to 10 the TV will interpolate every content to 120fps/hz? And then, in particular what is the difference between ed blur and de judder?
If you put De blur to 10 you will see the most details in motion as the panel will work at 120 Hz. For movies in 24p that means that each frame will be displayed 5 times. In this mode TV will not create new frames but just repeat the existing ones, so there will not be soap opera effect present. Soap opera effect - where TV will create new frames to make the image smoother will occur if you increase De judder control. That's why it is recommended to only increase De Blur to avoid unnatural looking movie content.
@@TVguyDarko thanks a lot finally I understood well. Yesterday I got my CX, first oled in my life and it's outstanding 🤩😍 and u got a new subscriber 😁
Thanks so much and enjoy this awesome TV!
Is Warm1 also accurate? I find that Warm2 looks too yellow on normal TV programmes.
Hey, I recommend that you watch this video - th-cam.com/video/-JEFu2M2tt8/w-d-xo.html
Warm1 is better than Standard/Cool, but it is not as accurate as Warm2.
@@TVguyDarko So is it normal that the picture looks yellow? It’s just that I also have a Panasonic TV and on that set the whites look white. And that’s on Warm.
Hey bro great video. One thing, is sharpness set to “10” definitely neutral sharpness as opposed to adding artefacts? I’ve seen some sources recommended changing it down to 0 for 4k content. Strange how LG sets it to 10 as default for game mode
Hey, I was pixel peeping and could not spot a difference between 0 and 10. That means that from a typical viewing distance these values are indistinguishable from each other and you should only increase Sharpness over 10 if you need some artificial boost in details for lower resolution content.
@@TVguyDarko thanks for the reply & Clarification. So you’d still recommend 10 over 0? Thanks
@@LL-94 there is a Nintendo Switch dockef LG OLED sharpness comparison video where 10 gives AA in geometry and 0 gives the aliased look.
@@brunogm what do you recommend setting it to for ps5 gaming?
@@LL-94 sharpness is too personal but the range 3~11 should not give haloing

I'd like to know too. I only get HDR settings when using my PS5, and I have a high enough speed that HDR and 4k should be coming through
I did all your setting and it honestly doesn't look good. Once I set it to vivid however, it looks way better! Am I doing something wrong?
Well, Vivid does look good but it’s just not accurate.

How do you use Dolby Vision?
It automatically switches to DV when DV sources play (for example on netflix, with dv tags)
@@BalazsNyitray oh really? Because I haven’t read “Dolby Vision” anywhere on my settings which is why I’m wondering if there is something wrong. But also I use an Xbox & on the settings it is saying Dolby vision is the only feature that is not on for me?
Dv will only shown in picture mode when you feed it dv content.
