- Explaining how to properly set "RGB Range" on Playstation (PS4)
A lot of PS4 and Playstation users are doing this WRONG! Should you use "Limited" or "Full" RGB Range on your PS4 or Playstation? Here's the answer...
Generally, most TVs default to "Limited" RGB, were many gaming monitors like BenQ let you manually select the RGB range. For best color accuracy, you want the monitor and Playstation RGB range to match. Note it is worth mentioning that some PC monitors like select ASUS models only support "FULL" RGB range. It's important that you research your monitor so that way you know what the proper setting is to use. Thanks for watching! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
*NOTE* - it is worth mentioning that *SOME* PC monitors only support a "Full" RGB range. If you're playing with a PC monitor and there is no option to change RGB in the settings, refer to your user manual or google to see what the default setting is. If colors look extremely washed out and white on Auto, set to full because your monitor most likely defaults to RGB full
hey john! can you please make a tutorial on every way you are aware of removing input lag on ps4
What is auto? I.e. what it is by default? Does HDR have different setting of low/full like nvidia or LG C9 has?
@@lolerie default is limited
@Cryptic I've made lots of vids on speed
What about the BenQ EL27 (the one you had/have) what RGB should I put it on? Got it set to Game mode
Why do all these guide channels have the same voice 🤣
Idk I like to speak clearly so everyone can understand
John Glasscock No it’s not speaking clearly lol it’s literally the same voice.
Illusion it’s a conspiracy thing
Am I supposed to laugh....
Diego Alvarez do you see us laughing?
Who clicked on this video because you read “You’re doing it wrong”?
Not me
haha I did but I didn't do it wrong afterall :)
John Glasscock 🤣
Aye
I clicked to tell him he’s an idiot for making such assumptions.
I appreciate keeping your videos short and straight to the point.
If Sony says “recommended”, that’s my choice
RE fan oh really? I have it ON on my ps4 because it looks better, but I didn’t know it was better like that
Carlton McGriff think they mean to adjust black levels and color range manually on monitor m8, not on the PS4, but doing both will surely get you the best picture you could want, it will be customized completely to your own liking by you!
@@carltonmcgriff5986 no high contrast if you have a 4k tv or monitor that allows it I think that's what he means that what I have on anyway
@@carltonmcgriff5986 I have HDR turned on and have it on deep colour setting and high contrast on my tv in 4k and it looks decent on most games only downgrades if put my tv on game mode
Recommended defaults to limited rgb. If your tv supports it, which it should if purchased in the last 10 years, you are only limiting your own viewing experience by not running full.
Imagine the surprise of those who just learned this after years, and is now plugging in their PS3 again to try it there as well. I'm pretty excited for them. Like having my first pair of glasses after my eyes went bad
Thanks for the vid! I thought I had FULL set without checking the 0-255 on my monitor. Turns out I had auto set the whole time but was able to switch to FULL with 0-255 and I did see a difference in the few seconds I had to look. I'll probably enjoy the details when I get on tonight. Thanks for the details!
Some games are actually designed to use a certain colour space as well, so setting it to a colour space not expected by the game can cause issues with the picture quality as well. I've learned this from experience, having set both my TV and PS4 to full, then still finding some games to have excessively darker images than others, or contrast levels that were vastly different. I thought I needed glasses/new TV the way some games looked compared to others with the forced setting. Setting it back to auto on both the TV and PS4 alleviated this. If anything, most games seem to use the Limited colour space.
Great info, thanks for sharing
Wow! Thata good to know.
Bad thing is how to actually know if a need to use Full or Limited depending on the games...
So auto
Pretty much all modern monitors support full RGB range. This is mostly a setting to be concerned with in regards to TV's. If your TV or monitor doesn't have RGB full or limited settings, test setting the PS4 RGB range to limited and then to full. The setting that has the better contrast and doesn't look washed out is the correct one.
Thank you!!! Also changed my audio output to Dolby and there is a huge difference! 5 years on and never knew.
If you have a DTS capable receiver the sound will be richer set to DTS!
I’ve been wandering how I would get the words on the side of the screen back on the tv thanks this really helped
I've never messed with the color output settings but I'll see if this makes a difference today
If you’re using HDMI then the PS4 and monitor/TV will negotiate the correct setting in automatic. The manual options are only there for either the small percentage of TVs/monitors that do not negotiate, you’re using an intermediary device like an amp and the signal to negotiate is not passed through correctly, or you are converting to a different input connector for the monitor. In 99.9% of cases automatic will automatically negotiate the correct setting via the HDMI protocols and this setting does not need to be changed.
Knew this from the Switch like literally a few weeks after it came out.
Also with the stuff that he says I got a strong déjà-vu.
Maybe the sales-person gave the same lecture on RGB
Samsung 4K tv’s call the RGB range on there menus black level
So if you are using full RGB set tv to normal black level
If you are using limited RGB set your tv to low black level
Hope this info helps Samsung tv owners
Good info man, appreciate you helping other people out
Thanks 👍
How about for a LG 4K nano cell
Thanks!
Always found it weird why they wouldn't just go along, and name it the same thing. Limited and Full makes more sense than Low and Normal IMO.
Thanks for the update Fam💪🏾💯
Thanks for the tip,had no idea what i was doing lol. Had to subscribe to your channel 👍
Thanks for the support
thanks for this ive been fiddling with the setting for a while but couldnt quiet make out what was wrong
You're welcome
This is something I’ve been researching thanks!
You're welcome
This really helped me well thanks
Usually if you have a monitor "full" and if you have a TV "limited".
That's gonna work in the 99% of the cases.
And thats why the ps4 is by default in automatic (limited) because is targeting for the tv users
Good info my man
But when I put it on limited my colors look washed out
On my tv
@@swervetea thats how its suppose to look
@@JohnGlasscock Thanks.
Good content tho, at least you give very useful info and not only for the views.
Thanks for tip cause before this I left this setting at Limited for my tv
Just make sure they match in the settings
@@JohnGlasscock Got it
Thank you I was wondering what I messed up thanks a lot this really helped me
Many thanks, I was just confused reading on the internet , but you have been just concise 😸😃 I have now set both monitor and my PS4 to full and let's see how it looks like😊
If you are wondering if your tv is full or limited RGB set auto then to limited or full, if the screen does not go blank for a few seconds it supports that setting as it's already using it!
Automatic/Limited looks washed out on my TV (its settings don't really affect it), Full looks like the correct setting as it gives me true darks/lights etc. So if I'm "Doing it wrong" I'm fine with it 🤷♂️😂
Use full what’s he to say I changed it to full my games look a lot better now
I think you missed the point. He's saying that, if your console is set to full, make sure your TV is also set to full.
I play ps4 pro with LG 1080p TV.
When i set to full, the color popped out, the dark and bright are better. You can tell the distance of an object much better.
When i set to auto/limited, the color washed out.
So i stay with full.
You doing it wrong... it’s s stupid myth
@@madamevoodoo8217 They are not doing it wrong noob lol. For most modern 1080p monitors or 1080p TVs, you should have the ps4 rgb set to full or else the image will indeed look washed out if it's set to limited or automatic....Why? Because dummy, most 1080p TVs and monitors use a 1.4 hdmi port, which is a low speed signal. This means you don't get all the image and color information sent to your screen, therefore you need to manually turn on the Full rgb colors in order to make up for the lack of colors you get from a low speed HDMI signal. Unlike 4k TVs or 4k/1440p monitors that send a complete and accurate image to your screen from your PS4 via a High speed 18 gbs HDMI cable, hence why it is recommended for this option to be kept at "Automatic" in this particular case because it would be an overkill if you have a monitor that gets all the colors from its hdmi signal while having RGB set to full on your PlayStation settings. The problem lies here and this is why people report crushed blacks and a saturated image overall. This option should only be left alone if your TV or monitor are capable of outputting a highspeed image signal using an hdmi 2.0 port and a high speed HDMI cable. Think of it as being similar to supersampling being turned on for 1080p screens. It would not make any sense if you were to manually turn on supersampling on a 4k screen because the image signal is already capable for outputting 4k and doesn't need for you to downscale a 4k image like it would for a 1080p screen.
This just fixed a 2 year old issue for me. Thank you!!!!
thank you for the tutorial
Idk if it's just me but I also noticed input lag when you would turn on Full RGB
Video was good but could’ve been a bit more educational. What are the differences between the two and which option is best if you monitor supports both? I’m assuming full rgb is the better option but I don’t know for sure which is why I’m asking
Ty this is short and useful
Appreciate the feedback
Super helpful man! Thx for tge vid
Just a tech warning. Changing the video performance settings inside PS4 operating system is not a problem. However, NEVER change resolution settings on the safe mode options or you will make your PS4 unbootable, and require complete reinstallation of the OS and applications. Many a sad face I have seen with people who did not know the difference in these processes.
So that’s what happened to my last ps4.
I never got a Problem like that?
What do you mean by safe mode?
@@jackjelly766 if your holding the „on“ button on the ps for 10 secs, you can boot up the ps in safe mode.
@@jackjelly766
Boot to safe mode and select rebuild database if the system slows or every few months, it's like a low level defrag!
Hola excelente video, estaría bien si pudieras hacerlo con una TV, Samsung en especial, ya que tambien me eh encontrado con gente que no sabe como colocar el nivel de negro, ya que ese también afecta al RGB, como puede ser: RGB - FULL - Nivel de negro alto, RGB - LIMITADO - Nivel de negro bajo, la verdad es un poco confuso y las TV's no se que tan afectivo sea cambiar la configuración de nivel de negro y dejar RGB automático en el play o también modificarlo. Saludos!
thank you i needed this
I tried this one thanks mate :)
I just pick the one that feels more responsive, then adjust color settings as needed~
U and me both
That has nothing to do with responsiveness. It's just the RGB range.
So I've been wondering about something for a while now. I also have all my video settings on automatic as recommended and my TV settings should be fine as well but in games without HDR the dark areas look far too black and swallow all the details. In games with HDR it looks great tho and details aren't lost in the shadows. Does anyone know why this is a thing? Before I started using HDR I had my RGB settings on limited and that way the dark areas didn't seem too dark but the blacks weren't that great (sadly I don't have an Oled TV).
Really good info as it will affect gameplay if put on full mode as some dark scenes in game are unseeable
Thanks alot for this info bro. Never had this idea
You're welcome
This is a man most humble because as you can see, he gives no shits about watch time. He's purely here to help.
Just curious how do you notice that it’s set like this for most people?
A lot of people are doing this wrong. It's just something everyone knows that everyone is doing wrong.
Thanks for that info!
You're welcome
Thnx, will definitely try this
Great info, man! Really appreciated!
Anyone happens to know the correct setting for a Samsung QLed (Q6fn model)?
Auto
@@JohnGlasscock thank you 🤘
Samsungs are generally better with Limited range, for some reason they struggle with just above black in full 0-255 range.
@@34sld ended up setting it to auto and everything seems fine. Limited seems to have the colors a little washed out.
Just a reminder that we are talking about a QLed. I think it is supposed to have somewhat deeper blacks. Is this correct?
Literally already knew this but I watched it anyway
Thanks for participating
John Glasscock of course❤️❤️❤️
Fax im just watching cuz im bored
Thanks i had no idea!
Thank you for this!! 🙌👏
You're welcome
You have the best last name I’ve seen, don’t let anyone tell you differently
I appreciate it!
Bonne vidéo, mais une bonne colorimetrie commence deja par une calibration de votre image, certaine tv utilise la calibration ISF mode expert (LG par exemple), pour les moniteurs la sonde de calibration est une valeur sure et assure au maximum 99% d'espace colorimetrique de votre écran.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Great practical videos! Do you by any chance have a video with recommended PS3 settings for a monitor? I don’t have next gen 😔
Right when ps5 is coming out, "Youre doing it wrong!!!!!!!"
When I used to play on my benq monitor I had it on full. N I quess I had it wrong the whole time. Now I know for the next time
Thanks for this information 😊🤟👍
This video helped a lot thx
Thank youuuuu
Was it real
Everybody hates u stfu plz
@@aphelionent.5923 who cuz
Stfu click baiter
Your content sucks
Are there any upsides or downsides to changing my monitor and PS4 to full rather than keeping them both automatic?
Good video btw!
Like I mentioned in the video the colors will not be correct. They need to match
John Glasscock right, I just basically meant assuming they do match… is there any difference between full and automatic in your experience?
@@Ben-uc9xn Oh, well the colors will be better on FULL RGB. Mostly in the black levels
John Glasscock thank you
Thanks Man U helped me a lot 😁
So helpful
Just another reminder that I need to upgrade my TV...
😞
No! LONG LIVE CATHODE RAY!!!
I still got that Toshiba 😔
My tv costed 1600 its from phillips and i have the worst imput delay ever
Mines a LED Panasonic from about 8 years ago.
I just bought An lG120hz tv les go now I need ps5
Yh good to let others know.
Automatic on PS4 switches to Full on my TV. I know this because if I then switch to Full, my tv doesn't do any adjusting but if I switch to limited then it adjusts itself to that.
So I just manually keep it on Full.
TV 4K HDR
MY PS4 1080P NO HDR
my TV fills up automatically !!! But I want limited :( also supports limited? why do I automatically go to Full?!?!
i deadass figured this out literally the other day
Thx man really help
I already knew about this, In fact it actually does make a decent impact on the graphics.
So you've sett this on full? Better than limited I guess?
I set it on Full
@@JADC93 watch the digital foundry video regarding this..... Limited for TV and full if you play on a monitor..... And they will explain in detail why you should follow that rule
You re on monitor Militia ?
@@ThingsAmazing1 Am not on Monitor.
The truth is
In PS4 must set to Limited
In Xbox one must set to TV= limited
All TVs support Limited but in budget TVs they have full which work very poorly
So all game console are designed to work 100% when both TV and console set to limited
In fact all LG TVs by default game mode black level set to low which = limited
In console if you set Full to Full you will not get the maximum colors depth and contrast, because you will slightly you need to change brightness inside the game!
Thanks for sharing
What about TCL Series 5 It's a budget TV but it doesn't have a setting for RGB.
I'm glad that I sub to this channel
I was one of those people 😿. Just change it to automatic 😸. Really good explanation, detail and concise. Thanks! 💜
I was like, oh this thumbnail is asking for a thumbs down. I watched. I thumbs up, and I fix my ps4 setting 😂
What about when using hdr
Auto
I use limited on my tv just because it runs a little smoother but those bright colors burns my eyes lol
Thanks, informative
You're welcome
You're mic is amazing, everytime I watch a vid like this my ears bleed.
My ears: we've got another one incoming
Fact: I bought myself a PS4 with the money I saved up by switching to Geico
Somthinwrong for real tho?
Lmao

Awesome , Pimpin..... Thank you!!!!
Hi john, I have the same monitor as you, I use it with a ps pro. When I watch Netflix or play any other 4k hdr content the colors look washed out, it wasn’t like that at first. Do you know what causes this?
Thanks
No, I haven't noticed any issues
I have the same issue with my Benq EL2870U 4k i have configured my ps4 pro and the monitor at Full Range and looks well, but with i activate HDR on the ps4 and i play some HDR video, or game this looks washsed and the white look yellowish. I prefer to have disable the HDR, i think this technology doesn't work properly on LCD panels.
SAKEWCW did that happen out of the box or did it occur later? It took like a year for me to be like that. I was watching Netflix and stuff fine in 4k hdr at first. I used 3 different ps pro’s on this monitor. All of them show the same washed out colors.
@@bryankwieman8796 This is happening to me since the day one, only when i watch HDR content. I dissabled the HDR because that, this bother me to see washed colors and the white tones yellowish. I have seen some websites and they do not talk very good about the color accuracy and HDR on this monitor, but i think for the budget are a very good monitor, despite HDR issue.
SAKEWCW you are right, it still is a really good monitor. I have been using it a lot. Too bad about the HDR though. I will contact support and ask them about this, if they give me a solution I will tell you
That awkward moment where you watch the video and realize you were already doing it correctly.
Thanks for the info - now can you tell me
which setting is actually considered better? I can’t really see any difference
Thank You!
Is this the same for PS3 ?
i would imagine it is but asking anyway. I have mine set to full and use it with a sony bravia tv
Probably maybe not
You should try what looks best to you. Do you like deeper colours or do you like washed out colours? It all depends on the game you're playing. I switched to full a while back because it benefits the black levels more. Looks more crispier to me.
@@zensoredparagonbytes3985 thanks bro i've got it the best i can now i think. I play cod ghosts on the ps3, the grapics a terrible on it anyway. It's like trying to polish a turd lol
@@Pablo-yi9ox Sure man. I don't play CoD. Did play the first one though but I prefer narrative driven games.
TV 4K HDR
MY PS4 1080P NO HDR
my TV fills up automatically !!! But I want limited :( also supports limited? why do I automatically go to Full?!?!
Why is this in my recommended, also I never even bothered looking at the settings lol
Same to both
This is my first time watching that video.
Thank you for helping me
I knew something was wrong with my PlayStation 4
My TV screen is going blue screen a few times and I'm playing a game hopefully that could maybe change that. With my problem.
Thank you for this. I didn't know that the RGB range is called the black level on Samsung.
Glad it helped
I got a Benq RL2455s and it doesnt make a visual difference if i have set both devices to either limited /16-235 or full and 0/255, do u know why? Also is there any added displaylag compared to full/ full? I feel like my game Blackops 4 blackout runs smoother (better hit detection) once i use full on both my ps4 and benq monitor
I have the same monitor as well and would love to know if it increases display or input lag
Got the same monitor, and if i set it on 16-235/full on my ps4 it looks way better than the recommended 0-255/full.
Same here. Try to use both full or both limited and make ur monitor way darker. I play fps mode with brightness down to 40 and black equalizer off rest is standard. Try that
Ruyko 6 i play fps mode too, i will definitely try that with the brightness and black equalizer like you said, thanks bro appreciate it
Full RGB is going to be most noticable in the shadows and highlights. At the end of the day it's your preference, limited or full. & I recommend using FPS mode on that monitor for lowest input lag
Heard RGB full adds input lag is it True ?
I want to know this too. I play black ops 4 and whole reason i play on monitor is so it wont lag.
@@Sigmabuzz08 yup me too
Doubtful and I wouldn't worry about it
Makes 1 nanosecond of a difference👍🤯
Thank you man
Very interesting video and excellent channel..
is there any lag between both
No
Is it me or gaming just doesn’t feel the same anymore? We use to play to just have a good time. Now we play just to sweat and oftentimes leave the game angry for losing so many times.
Pretty sure it's just coz you're not a kid anymore. Maybe try more singleplayer games as well as multiplayer, more relaxing and immersive imo.
Then stop playing fortnite
@@dirtytamato not everyone plays fortnite lmao
Dirty tamato more of a COD Guy
Bro thank you so much for this video it honestly has helped me out a lot!! I’ve had a monitor for a while now on the PS4 and always thought that I had to keep it on recommended thank you
Of course I'm going to put it in full good to know that I will change it
Just leave it Auto in most cases.
Nah set it to match tv.
I'm on PC. Why am I watching this
Yo that's crazy, but I don't remember asking
Good to know i can use Full on my new monitor it looks so good
I don't know but full actually improve jump force silly real life visuals. But the darkness and lighting very shadowy and bright. Might as well set it to limited since it delays
Though other differences like 1080i and 1080p
another fact or fiction question ...
connecting headset through controller causes input lag . is this true ?
using monitor speakers causes input lag . is this true also ? i watched and read a couple of videos and threads about connecting either through optical cable or usb to get sound so ps4 has minimum input lag .
I play through optical
thexophguy yes, is true.
If u want zero input lag then connect the controller (new version) via a data cable.
