- Do your Playstation / PS4 colors look bad, or washed out? Here's a few of my tips to make your PS4 colors look the best! In this video, I talk about Playstation RGB Full & Limited Settings, best resolution settings, RBG & YUV420, HDR, & where to find the best monitor settings for colors!

Ngl, your last name is kinda funny lol
😂😂😂😂
I get why it is funny but it is disrespectful. Just pointing it out here.
@@CoffeeOn sharp pp
@Wassup Boi shut up dude ur annoying
@@baco_zd thats even more disrespectful
Your channel will blow up when your doing videos like this on the ps5
Fuck yeah...
Very true
Lmao yes
The ps4 does not look that bad?
Dis video why you graphics soo bad but it’s not
Thank you so much. You just saved me so much money. My entire screen went only black and blue with no whites and it turned out to be exactly this issue. You sir have the answers even Google did not
Your name is very close to the legendary bassist for Jethro Tull of the 70's,subscribing for that alone.
Stupid reason
YUV 4:2:0 cuts to a quarter the full color and brightness depth.
The best option would be setting the console to RGB, then the console itself will set the YUV to 4:2:2 that is half of the color depth of full RGB 4:4:4
Currently HDMI cannot support 4:4:4 YUV or Full RGB for color depth, due to bandwidth limitations of the HDMI 3. That’s something coming in the future with HDMI 4.0 etc
AUTO
Interesting
There is no HDMI 3.0 yet. You might mean HDMI 2.0 and 2.1.
And the whole point of chroma subsampling is that human vision is more sensitive to changes in luminance than chroma, so if Y is always 4, luminance data is not compressed, just the chroma. That's why it works fine for 4k 60hz 10bit HDR. At that resolution, it's hard to see artifacts other than text against a solid background.
For me the HDR calibration setting were wrong .. washed out bad .. I made the settings more visible. Helped a lot!! Thanks 🙏🏽
This helped bcz when I got on my ps4 screen was different it was brighter subbed and liked
Thanks John ! Keep up with those stuffs ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you
What adjustments did you make for the HDR calibration settings? I'm using an LG GL850
You just won a new subscriber. Your videos are wonderful.
I already knew several of those things, but I still like your videos, I hope see ya more content in the future.
Thanks man
thank you man this really helped
On Samsung TVs / monitors the RGB range is called HDMI black level. With two settings available being low and normal. I would guess those will match either the limited or full setting on PS4. Limited being set to HDMI black low and full setting being set to normal.
My PS4 yellow I have Samsung tv how fix
Thanks but I'm still confused because some people say it doesn't refer to rgb range so idk. My display looks to bright when i set it to limited rgb range on my ps5. When I set it to full rgb colors dont look washed out anymore but it almost seems to dark. Samsung tvs are confusing that's for sure.
This works really good thank you
thank you and have a great day
I use a Samsung 4k Quantom dot TV model called the Q8FN, it's one of the best tvs for color vibrancy and peak brightness, it has RGB and HDR10+ people need to research the TVs they buy if they're wanting better colors or color detail/highlights and not rely on HDR to automatically fix the colors.
I’ve always had problems with everything being too dark in HDR, every site I looked at said to set your ps4 to limited colors. Turns out my monitor does full color hdr smh. Automatic settings didn’t work. Don’t know why I didn’t try that until this video, but it’s made this monitor worth the money. Thanks!
Automatic on the monitor or the PS4? Also, it is worth enabling HGiG if your monitor has it. It just disables any tone mapping done by the display, and relies only on the game content's mapping, or the PS4 system level HDR calibration.
You should do a video on Full duplex 100 vs Full duplex 1000. Router LAN settings in general ! And which is the best for the PS4?
My tv is a 55" led Samsung from 2011. Not sure if i can change things but i will look into this :-)
Thank you this fixed my problem
Thanks For Help John
You're welcome
I recommend to play in OLED from LG I have C9 G sync and VRR
It has everything's
Or buy CX G sync free sync and VRR
keep both at Limited
For the most accurate colours copy movie mode setting to game mode setting and disable any enhancer to the picture or motion
Thanks for sharing man glad you found settings that work for you 👍🏻
@@thealbashow yeah it's not, dummy.
Short version SET EVERYTHING TO AUTOMATIC 😁
Yea your right.
IMPulsive ?
my ps4 pro with physical copies of games looks bad and i don't think there's a fix for it
@Wise Turtle The hdr setting only has automatic or off. So automatic will be the best one.
Thank you man this help me out a lot
First 49 seconds of the video, I hear rgb miss matched, I turn it to full and bam, I got good colors😂😂. Thanks dawg
Thank you so much 👍🏻👍🏻
I have a strange HDR issue on PS4 Pro where my colour palette will suddenly change during gameplay.
This happens mainly in warzone - transitioning to the gulag will suddenly make all of my colours appear darker.. or the opposite issue when leaving a dark bunker, the outside environment can wash out very bright - brighter than before I entered said bunker.
The only way I can fix this is to cycle my adaptive contrast settings from high to off to high again and this restores the image to what I set it to.
I'm using hdmi black level low and rgb limited. Hdmi port is enhanced so I can get 4K HDR.
This issue has started since setting my HDMI port to enhanced. Never used to happen when I used 1080p HDR.
Did you ever fix?
Bro this helped so much I was scared cause the screen was crap
you are the best tnx bro when i use to lunch rocket leage the color change and when i use to close it it come back normal now i disable automatique to full now its normal you are the best
John! IT DOES NOT WORK on my Philips Momentum. I know the problem for many years but that is the first case changing limited and full levels of RGB does not help! Do you know any other way for that?! I'm pretty confused...
Philips TVs are shit for gaming mate
Setting everything to automatic doesn't always help.
Fr just click every one until it looks back to what you know as normal
Thank you! I don't even know how it happened but tanx again
What if setting my RGB range to Automatic makes my PS4 colors looked washed? Would that mean that my TV is defaulted to RGB Full?
I usually set my PS4 on 1080p mostly because it lowers the resolution but it keeps the frame rate on most games stable where in 4K mode. The frame rate is out of whack.
Very good information. Can you dig in to the ps4 pro issue with the flickering black screen? It's happend to so many abd recently happened to my. I have a sony 4k tv lol. I fixed it by changing resolution to yuv420. Recently thier was a system update so I took my chances and put everything to automatic and it's been fine for weeks. So Much about this. Various fixes but nobody knows exactly why or what is happening. Would love to hear your thoughts. Cheers.
I've never experienced that issue
This helped me a ton. I have been fighting my tv for years and was never happy with hdr on OR off. But now I got it working with hdr on and it looks great 😄
Thx, big help
I bought a PS4 Pro the other day, and before I played a game, I set my 1080p HD TV display picture to Vivid, it looks really good from what I can tell.
Yes it does but the Vivid setting will cause you to get input lag sadly
idigmusictoo Thanks for the information.
@@idigmusictoo1746 just turn auto motion to off..dumb ass!!!
@@bayarea_hemi auto motion isn't the only thing that affects it. Game mode inherently has much lower input. Any other picture mode will have considerably more input lag. Vivid mode is one of the worst picture settings you can use for games.
I use LG UHD TV, model 49UH66.
My Video Output Settings are;
2160p - YUV420
RGB (Automatic)
HDR (Automatic)*
Deep Color (Automatic)*
Note*: Had to manually enable Deep Color Output on TV Settings to one of HDMI ports, otherwise both HDR and DC won't work.
Also very important thing to do is switch the TV into "Game Mode" to avoid ghosting and input lag.
Hope this helps to fellow LG TV users!
Thanks for sharing!
thank you Glasscock
If i leave it on Auto, my colors are still washed out. It looks much better and vibrant when i keep it on 'Full'. Yet on my Xbox One S, it says my TV Supports 4K 10bit @60hz. I turn HDR off unless i play at night.
Thanks!
So my ps4 brightness went all the way down by itself and idk how to fix it, I’ve been searching everywhere and there’s nothing and when I try to do what u did it said my tv doesn’t support HDR
Same here
@@tori1884 any luck???
same
I’ve been searching for ages
turn on input signal plus before you put hdmi cable then turn on your ps4
I watched a video like this and followed it and now picture looks worse, can’t remember what i changed and also can’t find the video I watched before I changed it haha
Thank! I have huge Tv and choose limited to my tv
I have the same monitor and my colors are faded. I use a capture card and an hdmi splitter which for some reason won't allow me to use the hdr settings with my ps4 pro. I disconnected the splitter and just ran my ps4 straight to my monitor and did as you suggested with my settings and everything is still faded. Any troubleshooting advice?
Now from this shitty colors, I have the perfect colors! Thank You!
You're welcome
Hey!
Any recommended picture settings for this particular BenQ monitor?
Hello, after calibrated hdr on ps4 setting ,do you calibrated hdr too on game setting or not ? Is automatically setting hdr in ps4 use for game or we can do setting calibrated in game too? ..sorry for my english, its not my first language.. (french loool) ..thanks for your reply :)))
Where is the "video output settings" option??
I play Ps3 all my games looked wash out so I adjusted my settings on the ps3 then went into display settings on my TV and turned Brightness 65, Contrast 100, Color 100, Tint 50, Sharpness 85 and color Temperature filter Cool
Going to try this tonight. What other games do you play besides COD
Final Fantasy titles, some classic games
I turned on super sampling, I guess I'll see if it helps
Super sampling mode definitely makes Modern Warfare look better on my 1080p Asus monitor
Glad you're liking it
Shame the game doesn’t get better 😂 hope they at least fix something in it
I have all of em set to automatic, but i have to manually change the hdr everytime i turn on my ps4.
I have the exact same monitor as you, the issue I have is I've never seen good HDR. I have my PS4 pro set to auto on everything, did the calibration of the HDR settings but the HDR setting on the monitor just looks awful to me. Just washed out and looks like someone hiked the contrast up a lot and turned down the saturation a lot. The cinema HDR option or just going back to SDR looks way better to me, way more saturated on the red and blue channels. But the issue is, I don't know what HDR is supposed to look like. My only reference is a SDR. I guess I'm just confused, Like is the normal HDR setting on this how it is supposed to look? Or has anything I've described sound not quite right with the HDR output of my set-up. Sorry for the lack of detail, but I can't even share an image as it's only be crushed to SDR haha. All I can say is the only way I've found to get a nice image off HDR is using the cinema profile. Sorry for the awfully written post, colour is really hard to explain. Do you think there is anything wrong with using the cinema HDR profile for gaming on this monitor please? :)
Personally i use cinema hdr and hdr mode all the time with certain games. Unfortunately the only way to get a really good HDR picture is to spend over $1000 on a monitor 😬 Hopefully soon that will not be the case
@@JohnGlasscock Honestly, thank you so much for your reply! I was just worried cinema mode was adding too much latency or had some other issues like crushing colours (similar to the awful post processing on TVs) and glad to know I'm not the only one who uses it. Yeah you're absolutely right, it's a real shame good HDR still isn't at an affordable price point. As bad HDR is often just worse than SDR, at least anecdotally on my two fairly cheap 55-inch TVs and this monitor haha. I love the monitor we have for work, and the really low blacks are amazing in games and video. But getting the HDR to look passable has been a headache and every device I've used. Let's just hope micro LEDs, mini array LEDs and future OLED will help :)
@@danielsf94 I would suggest still using game mode. Hdr set on auto for your tv will activate the wide colour gamut, which is Bt2020, and you'll get more colour volume and vibrancy. You'll also have more peak brightness and more clear detail in your image. But I think if you don't have a 10 bit panel, you can't make full use of HDR 10, which might cause problems like the image looking washed out. That's just my guess. I have the Sony a8h OLED tv which is a 10 bit display, so it'll make full use of HDR10. My colours get more then vibrant enough even with my colour settings set in the middle on default. I think some 8 bit displays can use HDR10 without any problems for movies, but for games it might be an issue depending on the game. Sorry if I'm rambling, that's just what I've been thinking. Maybe if you have your HDMI range set to limited then it could also cause problems in hdr. Try setting it to full range if you aren't already in it and see if that changes anything 👍.
What if i Do my monitor to automatic and my ps4 pro to full? In my case. My monitor is able to let me choose one of these settings. But if i prefer full it should change the rgb to full, isnt it?
but like my ps4 screen is like 3x darker than normal, its like a gba with no backlight
you tried to change it on the screen itself right?
I have the BenQ el2870U and I followed all your steps but somehow my colors are still washed and I made sure I did the hdr calibration on my ps4 multiple times.
dude SAME. did you find out anything? I'm going crazy and esp because hdr was working for me a few days ago
What he said with the hdr settings i think thats my problem how he switched between brighter and darker because my screen now is so weird all the colours are weird and bright but it wont let me choose that option
is it possible to have an 4k HDR TV that only supports limited RGB?
WIPE MY PS4, FUCKED ABOUT WITH SETTINGS ! , GOOGLED IT ALL DAY! NO LUCK! THEN YOU CAME ALONG AND IT WAS THE SETTINGS ON MY TV YOU LEGEND! DEFO GETTING A SUB AND LIKE!!!!
Can you please answer this? Why does it look like theres static when i game? Samsung 4k tv, its like theres a filter of static on top of the image
Does this also play into TVs that have Game Mode? I've noticed my colors are slightly different when switching to game mode. I dont have the PS4 pro just the original 500gb.
Could you tell me which picture mode is best for gaming and maybe your settings you use for it
Game mode or fps mode
Can you send me the link for ps5 HDR on how to fix it & not washed out? I have the BenQ MOBIUZ EX2510 monitor.
can you test this with a physical game in a ps4 pro? because thats my situation and i dont think theres a work around for it lmao
Ok plz help man i have a sony bravia 1080p tv and im not sure if i should set my rgb range to full or reccomended?
How come you have HDR off?When your playing hdr games do you go back to psn settings to turn it back on ?
I had it switched off for the video
Thanku thank u thank u thank u my ps4 looked like it was ran over and threw into a dishwasher but now it looks normal so thx
So if I want full rgb. Then my monitor and ps4 has to be on full? ( It looks te best if my monitor is limited and my ps4 on full. Isn't that weard
Same here. My benq el2870u monitor looks best if i make monitor limited and ps4 on full
When there is a lot of different colors or many shadows on my tv the quality is just horrible there are like big pixels how can I fix this ?
Turning off hdr fixed it
another great vid john was looking at tomshardware for asus vg245 calibarion and im not sure if i like the color setup thay have but im still tweaking to find the perfect preset for gameing any other advice bud thanks.
You're welcome
A lot of those settings come down to personal preference
@@JohnGlasscock i understand totally what your saying what do you think the bascic color settings should be adjusted on that monitor if you were useing it lol
Which monitor do you have man?
Do you recommend limited for ps4 games on ps5..my tv is oled cx
I followed al og your settings but I still have the problem on my Samsung q8fn
It only happens when i start a game and i don’t see a setting on my Roku tv that puts it to automatic
Mine is dark at first because my TV is old and takes a bit to go to normal
I have a Lot of doubts. I have an old Philips tv that has PC mode (which people Said that it's good for reducing lag) and I can see the Black colors on the test patterns only when I put some brightness up, but in the end It crushes ALL of the whites and then I have to adjust a personal color temperature to match the white error (usually lowering the greens). So...my tv don't have a rgb option, only a Gamma setting, and it's driving me crazy cause limited seems to make the colors washed out, yet full creates ALL that stuff that I mentioned.
Same here
Thanks Glascock
I get Real great Black and no washed out colors if i choose the bottom of the rbg settings in TV. I Set my ps4 pro to rgb full. And now i have Black Like it should be no feeling for washed out images anymore
If I put my output resolution to 720p, would that help with the performance on some games?
It should..
No , if you play in 720 p game still works in fullHD but you dont see this dont play on 720 p if you have full hd :/
By the way, my PlayStation screen is like grey coloured. Do you know how to fix that?
This guy is the best
Thank you
John Glasscock :)
I noticed fhe blue looks much dimmer when i hold the PS button to turn off the system. Still cant figure that out
I need help with this man

My ps4 recently randomly changed the background so everything is so dark in the background and if I go into a game and it turns to night the screen is pitch black I have to turn brightness to max to see I’ve looked this up on yt and I get no explanations I beg of someone to help me. Please and thank you. Example: in Spider-Man miles morales the loading screen where’s he’s on the bus is completely black like miles is barely seeable
What’s the rgb for a roku tv
