I bought a C7 with far more confidence than I would have otherwise because of your site and videos. Thank you for a simple, easy to understand walkthrough of settings.
Holy crap I want this TV and I was worried about setting it up properly. Thank you so much for going through each item thoroughly! Y'all make great content.
Got one and loving it. Great presentation, guess the best so far with thorough explanations.
At last with the lack of a proper manual For my LG OLED65E7V have found this comprehensive guide to settings especially for home cinema playback thank you so much
My LG E7 looks fantastic!! I’m so happy with this tv. The panel is close to perfect!! No vignetting like my previous lg6500EF. LG has been killing it with these 2017 OLED panels.
Thx for the settings! My C7 is a stunnig tv and now is even more fantastic!
I have the B7 and i love this TV ! Thank you for these setting !!
Just bought it yesterday, out of the box great but surely will look into these settings
Thankyou rtings. Video of settings helped a lot :)
Thank you so much for this video!! I'm getting a C7 sometime this week, or early next week
Did you buy it?
Just bought my oled today it’s bloody amazing oled55c7v😀
Excellent video, thanks for sharing.
I freaking am loving my LG OLED TV right now. HDR on a OLED is definitely stunning. I'm actively looking calibrations for the best quality. Thanks for the video. This explains a lot
This is really a great & helpful video!!
Thnx RTINGS.com you are the best 😀
Great video. Helped a lot. Just bought my B7 and still didnt get that feeling that I have one of the bests tv of 2017. Now it should be resolved.
RZ - don't forget that you'll need at LEAST 200 hours of running in before it shows its best and settles down. DO NOT do any adjustments before you've accrued this about of time as it changes day by day during running in.
I'm so happy I own a LG OLED TV. 😍😍😍
THE RAFCAVE same.
Same
I want to buy one, but i am scared about the ,,image retention". Do you guys have this problem with your oled?
I want a answer from someone, who use this tv and not from a tester 😅
Semih Genc No worries of burn In for my LG Oled. 👍🏽👌🏽
I just got the 65" B7 from Costco. It's amazing.The only adjustments I made so far is turning off True Motion and turning down the OLED Lighting setting to 60%. I'll try your settings tomorrow.
Thanks for this useful info.
Nice vid daniel..u help me a lot thanks guys ✔
Thank You for the video
Thank you for the info!!
Hdr strong is the best Pic. Mode for me, it has all of the positives of Vivid and none pf the negatives. I just tweaked it different for cable and pc. For gaming started a custom game with nice big open map and started playing around till I liked it.
Awesome explanation and walk though!
Thanks nice video
Finally! Thank you!
nice to meet u daniel
Tks for the useful review daniel. got a question for you , how much quality of this LG OLED b7 TV 2017 would deteriorate if it is a display at a store for 8 months, 10 hours a day? I am looking to get the 2017 model and the display unit is 1/3 cheaper than brand new 2017 same model, is it worth it to get the display or get brand new better?
Thanks proven useful
Awe yiss! Thanks.
Great video..!!!!!
You said for Edge Enhancer to leave it on for HDR. Should you also leave it on for SDR?
After an appt w/ our CPA doing our taxes, our refund was 6X larger than we expected. We always split the IRS refund, so I had the money, and with no other needs ATM, I decided to be a very bad boy.
We already have two good TV sets. The 50" Pioneer Kuro Plasma from 2008 in the basement, and a generic 37" LED in the BR. Regardless, yesterday I bought the 55" C7P without the boss with me and without her knowledge. And no, we were not in the market for a TV. I left the LG at BB, as I was too much of a coward to bring it home until I come up with my rationalization for the purchase to the boss.....
Best plan at this moment...
"I bought this for the bedroom. This is such an improvement. With the LG's size, I hope it doesn't overpower the room.
(I will set it up in the BR...and let her say it's too big)...
Now I say, "Well, I could bring the Pioneer upstairs into the BR. It's smaller and will fit better into the room, while being much better than the set there now."
"And, we can give the current BR TV to David (our son who lives elsewhere), which will be bigger/better than what he has."
I then I bring the new LG into the basement man cave...
Am I good, or what?! :) SHE'S GOING TO KILL ME......
George - just grow a pair of balls and tell her what you've bought, and why. A 10yr old Plasma and a 'generic LED are not really to classed as 'good TVs'! You were well overdue for a replacement - that's IF you actually watch TV on a regular basis; does she btw?
@FreeWoRLD Yup, C7 55"... very happy w/it.... as good a TV as is out there ATM...
PS4 source in SDR :black level (high)
HDR: ( low)
Then put the brightness of the game in 50 or 40
Do you do settings for the space shuttle as well omg!!
I have a LG E6 OLED flagship model for past 2 years and I have multiple serious screen burn in issues which are very very visible. These OLED tvs are very fragile / delicate and it is extremely difficult and maintain these super expensive screens. MY ADVISE GO FOR A NON OLED TV. Features like Panel Noise Clear and Pixel shift are gimmicks and there is nothing you can do once you get single or multiple screen burns. Getting a new screen from LG is as good as the cost of buying a new OLED TV. Now since I cant throw away this super expensive oled TV, I primarily use it strictly for watching NETFLIX / Amazon Prime extra or movies that I play through download or blue ray players. For all other regular channel on DTH especially News channels and entertainment channels like Sony, CNN or BBC etc which have bright logos I prefer watching them on my Samsung TV which unlike OLED does not have screen burn issues since it is Backlit LED technology. Trust this review will help readers in making a suitable decision in buying a new TV. If you own a OLED make Double sure on regular basis that all your main picture settings like Brightness Contrast Colour OLED Light etc. are in mid range which is in between 45 - 55 range, anything higher will triple your chances of getting a screen burn which is irreversible damage. (Especially if you are in Quarantine due to Corona Virus and spending hours at a stretch watching your favourite programs on your OLED TV. Stay home and be safe...
What temperture you recomend for gaming ?
So in order to do the picture settings for HDR content you have to have a 4K UHD HDR bluray playing so that the appropriate menus come up (to change to technicolor)? Also, can you choose in the disc menu whether you want to use Dolby Vision or HDR10?
how about the Dolby Vision settings ? I get different Picture options when i'm watching Dolby Vision content. And i usually use my AppleTV4k which is upscaling to DolbyVision all the time, THanks!
Does the auto dimming energy saving feature decrease the picture brightness too, or just the oled brightness?
Hi. What are the best settings for Dolby Vision?
I have the C6 TV. Is very similar. I’m wondering why to set the white balance for Dolby Vision in Warm 2. Everything seems yellowish to me, even white text in the menus or subtitles. Why shouldn’t we select the neutral option? Thanks
oled55e7p I bought yesterday
Do you have settings for Daytime Nighttime Dolby Vision HDR and hlg for the LG 65 inch C7
Wow it makes me so glad I didn't spring for an OLED TV this xmas.
Can you make 2 or more classes so I can switch easy between gaming and watching movies without having to change different options?
Thank you for the settings. Could you explain why OLED light is recommended to be set to 50 for Dolby Vision. Most other places I have seen this setting around the same as for HDR10 (i.e., between 90-100). Thanks
The "OLED light" setting is controlling the ABL in Dolby Vision mode. LG simply used the "OLED Light" entry because it already was in the UI ;). HDR10: OLED light = OLED brightness; Dolby Vision: OLED light = Automatic Brightness Limiter
Thank you for the explanation. Any link I can read more about these hidden/misnamed features on my LG C7.
Some details on HDR10, HLG and Dolby Vision on LG's 2017 OLEDs: ruclips.net/video/5qPnLkrZUv4/видео.htmlm23s
Thanks for the link to Vincent's video. I had seen it many months ago, but didn't remember his talk about Dolby Vision OLED settings and ABL.
Hey Daniel thanks for the video man! My TV doesn’t have game mode available on the picture setting. Am I doing something wrong ?
Yes, probably. You should enter Picture Mode menu and choose game mode there. I don't even use that for gaming though so I suppose I have 30-33 ms input lag using Expert Mode: dark room (custom settings). I really should try setting up my game mode and see if I can notice a difference in lag. So used to playing 33 ms input lag from older lcd LG tv.
Hello How would you set oled light and contrast (85) for 130 nits? In mode Cinema warm 1 and gamma 2.2?
Thx
Rtings.com show us what sething to use for gaming ? hdr gaming like xbox one x and pro?
I find the contrast setting affects dimming (ABL), to stop it doin any dimming I have to go down to 30!
I think I’ll live with it the lowest I’m willing too: 87
(Oddly, the oled panel brightness makes no odds to it.)
Does LG OLED need a break in period before setting up final settings? I heard 100 or 200-250 hours were needed.
are you sure about the warm2 and 2.2 gamma. warm2 back everything look a bit too yellow and 2.2 seem to kill a lot of the detail in dark areas. I have the OLED light set to 17? unless there is meant to be different settings for tv and movies content.
Pen - Yeah - Warm2 is awful. Far to 'warm' and not natural at all. I don't understand/see why calibrators use it. Every TV looks crap on Warm2 IMHO. I use Warm1, which looks far more natural.
So for the mode setting
Normally: Expert
SDR: technicolor Expert
HDR: technicolor Expert
Dolby Vision: Cinema
when i use x box x should the black level be set to high?
For watching HDR movies and shows, what preset do you recommend? Technicolor or Cinema???
I'd say Technicolor is the most accurate.
Regino Rojas technicolor FTW imo
Can you make a video for the PS4 Pro and Xbox one x?
Just set my C8 de-judder 2/ de-blur 0. Tks
What setting do you reccomend for e6. Please help?
have you made vid on Alienware 34 Curved Gaming Monitor: AW3418DW
I just got the B7 and I have the ultra HD setting on. I got the HDR picture modes, but now they aren’t coming up when watching my direct tv. Any help?
So what black level is the most correct setting on my Xbox One X Scorpio and my LC C7 65” OLED 4K tv? Low or high?
I just purchased a 65 B7A. What are the differences, if any between a B7?
why is my lg oled tv picture quality really good when viewed from the side compared to when viewed directly opposite of the screen?
Hi, Im from Mexico and I found the Lg OLED55B7M, is the same that OLED55B7A?
Is the article more update? Some settings are not the sync with the article.
So is technicolor setting the same regardless of SDR or HDR?
Do you have picture settings for the 2016 E6 65 in LG OLED
should I use Deep color or not? My PC only turns on HDR when I have the deep color setting turned on the TV. not sure about the xbox one x though.
CRF250R1521 if you don't have deep color on, your one x will never engage hdr.
For PC, definitely turn on HDMI Deep Colour for 444 Chroma RGB 8Bit option at 4k60.
I'm using the B7 on a PC with a GTX1080 and when I turn on the HDR in windows settings the image gets really bad.
I tried your settings on my 2018 B7 but white is not white but a little yellow. I didnt change the white balance settings tho.
If the Screen Shift feature reduces the chances of burn-in, why have on/off option when it obviously needs to be on all the time?
So you keep recommending to set sharpness to 0 for LG sets. But I've noticed the default for calibrated presets is 10. Either seems correct to me and I don't think there is an actual sharpness difference between these 2 values also judging by a test someone else did. However there does seem to be some scaling/anti aliasing effect going with lower resolution content from another video I saw that smooths out pixel edges slightly. There's forums all over the place arguing between sharpness 0-10 so wonder if the experts here would investigate this further.
You have full settings for gaming please ? Sdr and hdr .... thanks
You just use the same settings; it's what's accurate.
I use my 50" plasma as my monitor AND gaming setup. It's about 5-6 ft away from me and it tends to stay on most of the time. (although I've tried to get into the habit of turning it off when I go to sleep and when I leave the house to go to an appointment. - i'm disabled so i'm always home unless at a doc appt) Anyway, my son helped fix the burn-in issue of my plasma when I first got it. He did research and found that if you run alternating screens of red, blue, green, and .... white or black, can't recall, letting each screen remain for a certain amount of time each (30 sec or 1 min?) and just let them cycle like that for hours and hours.... as long as you can... you will basically "break in" the plasma cells and in a sense inoculate your TV from perma burn-in. I've had this TV since Dec 2012 and so far it has worked great! We probably ran those panels for a total of 336+ hours altogether. A few hours here, a day there, or a couple of days if we could. But as soon as we finished using the TV, we'd start the color panels cycling again.
I was so hoping there would be some sort of preventative technique like that for the OLED TV as well! I mean, we didn't get to use our new TV as much for the first month but we made a sacrifice to try to expand the life of it. I'd be willing to make that kind of sacrifice with the OLED too. Been trying to find one like it. Haven't been successful yet. =(
Oh, and with my TV being on as long as it is, and me playing games.... you think I'll be okay with the B7A? I play things like Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8, Mario Odyssey, Fe (GORGEOUS extremely colorful game), and about to try out Splatoon 2. Never played either of the Splatoon games before.
I'm not a shooter type. Closest I came to shooters is Vice City. *rofl* I'm more an RPG, Adventure, and Platformer type with a few other oddball things thrown in, like the Sims. I do have concerns about HUDs in things like RPGs and games like The Sims. They tend to have static HUDs.
If I keep the brightness down like you mentioned Ro-Tang Clan, do you think that might help keep me from getting perma burn-in? (along with regularly doing the maintenance that the TV provides, of course)
Kade
I can tell u don't have an oled because i game on mine for hours and never ever witnessed burn in smh
Ro-Tang Clan
I have everything set to a hundred and no burn in. Mabye I should drop it back to 90-95
Dolby Vision doesn't work with Technicolor preset. It seems to go to Cinema Home User. The contrast seems to be way too high for a darkened room. Anyone have some recommendations for Dolby Vision films? Jack Ryan looks very bright.
Edge enhancing on?
I have a C7 55inch for about a month and im having a bad time with it . My last tv was a lcd 26inch and i hate the black crash and the dime picture. The ps4 pro using deep colour i had to raise the black level from low to high to fix black crash but still having dime picture , also 4k dont look better then 1080i on my old LCD. I use the settings on this video but SDR content still look bad. Can somebody help me fixing the dime picture quality ? Im missing my LCD britghness very bad.
Which one is better Q6 or B7??
Isn't 2.4 or BT.1886 gamma correct? Pretty much all calibrators use either of those settings.
Tomiply SMPTE recommended 2.4 for modern displays before the BT.1886 was defined by measuring many Hollywood colorists actual displays used for mastering.
So what are the exact settings for Dolby Vision?
Could you tell me the best setting/calibration for love sports such as the World Cup?
*live
What's the better setting to improve dynamic resolution in terms of true motion? I don't want any kind of adjustment for the soap opera effect, because I don't like it, but I want the maximum resolution as possible on the screen, considering I will have many scenes with movement.
I saw another calibrator saying to adjust de-blur to 10 and de-judder to 0. It's a big difference from yours. I don't know the precise difference between de-blur and de-judder.
Thanks for any help.
What is the brightness in cd / m² ?
I need some recommended settings for Netflix dolby vision content. I wish Netflix would do something about the subtitles getting to bright issue a.s.a.p.
Set your subtitles to transparent on netflix.com
I get confused and the Technicolor Expert. They said it disables HDR but when I choose it my TV pops up HDR.
So what would be the best settings for gaming on COD (MW3 2023)?
Hello My new C7P Oled after a month of use, I noticed a Small very tiny single white dot on the screen, it appears for few seconds even after you close the TV, Can anyone help me with this
Why are the settings different than on the website?
I can buy the LG 55 C7V at 1700€ good deal or I should wait ?
I was stuck between buying a vizio p series or a Sony 900f..... so I ended up with a LG B7A OLED lol 🤷🏾♂️😂
Which Tv ist better for gaming? The Sony XE93 or this LG C7? I heard the Problem with the hdr dimming mod ?
Tayfun Öztürk Both are good panels, just that one is LED/LCD and ones OLED.
My B7 has the component input
Why is game mode on my oled65B7 a bit dark ?
I recently bought a C7, but I can't get it to run at 60 FPS with a PS4 Pro for some reason, does anyone know how to check the FPS on the TV. I've tried to play Gran Turismo Sport and Horizon Zero Dawn and I can clearly see that it's still at 30 FPS, any help is appreciated :)
Anyone know how to turn the brightness down for the menus?
There are 2 settings that I disagree with here; contrast and brightness. I use my C7 as a PC monitor so I know what Windows is supposed to look like and using a contrast above 90 produces a lot of clipping. Rtings, plug your LG OLEDs into a PC, open up explorer or "This PC" and you'll see what I mean. Folder icons and access ribbon bars become heavily saturated and washed out. I've found 85 to be the sweet spot for contrast. A similar story for brightness too. I've found 50 brightness to be too washed out. You only need VERY small adjustments here, but I found 48 to be perfect to give deep blacks without crushing them. Although I'm not too sure what colour temperature is best for 6500k as the scale is different in Game mode. Same with Gamma too. Mine are set to W10 for colour temp and Medium for Gamma. Is this accurate?
Yeah, contrast is supposed to be at 85 for no clipping. Also, the BT.1886 gamma setting should be used when watching film in a dark room.
As for Game Mode, you should use a gamma of 2.2 and W45 for the colour temperature to get as close as possible to 6500K. Hope that helped.
Can only set gamma to low, medium and high in SDR gaming mode.
LazerMajor "Medium" gamma is the same as 2.2.
Ro-Tang Clan have you tried the Windows color calibration tool with it? Helped me out a lot more than the PC setting
Guys, I need help. I bought an LG 65'' C7 and when I run 4k movies from my PC to the TV the video seems to be stuttering. I don't know why. I can see it at times when the images are moving sideways. For examples viewing houses from one side to the other. That's when it seems as if it were moving periodically (stuttering) and not fluently. I made the LG primary display, set the resolution correctly, i'm sure it's not the player or the video because it happens on all of them. I just don't know how to get rid of that stutter. It's not extensive, but still, one would expect that not to happen on a 3500€ TV.
Not sure if it matters, but i'm running it through an nvidia GTX 1070 gfx card.
Somebody please help
What is the best way to connect a LG Soundbar to an LG TV ?
via HDMI ARC
Anything for C8?
Is the frame rate 240?
