Hey Classic. I really like 👍 your videos and streams with Fomo and the other guys. I'm interested to learn and to do my own calibration for personal use, and perhaps in the future, I'd be able to help family and friends. What are steps to follow in other to learn the basics and what do I need to purchase ( e.g, equipment and software). Is it to technical to learn? I have 3 TVs, so I guess I can learn while I'm using my own TVs as a practice. I'd appreciate any input on this. Thank you and keep it up 💯 . Hello from Houston.
@@menacordero1 you can start with Calman home for "brand" (Sony, LG, etc) which is $145 and gives you the ability to manually calibrate any brand. Add an X-rite colorimeter for $300 and a used i1pro2 for around $400-500.
I installed your recommendations and it just took my 77 to a new level. From the time I purchased it approximately 4 months ago I operated on custom expert one settings. Thanks for keeping it simple and your expertise 👍
I would like to ask you Classy, what do you think of Netflix Calibrated mode? I set it up and I have been enjoying, but i did not tried or settings for dolby vision yet. Your settings for dolby vision are better than netflix calibrated mode? Thank you in advance. Great content
Netflix calibrated mode is not actually calibrated as it would want you to think. It's mostly just something that has been carried over the last few years but isn't needed.
Can the settings also be used with activated light sensor or is there something to consider? I do not want to change the settings every time, especially when using SDR. With HDR this has not been a problem for me, because I can easily switch to Dark or Light.
What about IMAX enhanced picture setting Classy? Would you use the same settings you adjusted for Cinema? Saw you skipped that in the video so can you make any recommendations for that setting?
Hi Classy, are these settings still accurate for this model? I swear I saw you mention in another video that you actually recommend different settings from the ones in this video?
Hey Cecil one day in and I’m loving the settings you shared with us. Just got to say wow! There is a new Netflix docuseries ‘Animals’ that’s in 4K Dolby vision and it’s gorgeous. Truly seeing the beauty of this TV. Thx.
Thank you for the great content! I just got my A80J and connect my inputs thru my denon Hdmi 3 erc/arc. When I set a picture mode it stays on that mode through all the inputs. Whether it's cable TV, Ninetendo switch...it doesn't change the picture mode. I would have to change modes manually. I was wondering if you know why this is? Thank you so much and keep up the great work!
My setup is such that i probably won't be able to connect directly to the tv. It would be via the denon. Do you reccomend any of your calibrations that can be universal for cable tv and gaming? I believe native apps keep the picture settings and don't have the issue. Only when changing from Xbox, Ninetendo, cable where the settings remain the same and don't change.
Yep, same here! Xbox series X in HDMI 4, eArc HDMI 3 to my Denon where I have my blu-ray player and Apple TV 4k connected. If I watch an HD blu-ray in ‘cinema’ but then switch to The Grand Tour on Amazon which is HDR, instead of switching to ‘custom’ where my HDR calibration is, it stays in ‘cinema’ with the HDR logo in the corner of the settings menu. Can easily enough change it to ‘custom’ but wondering if there is a way for it to auto-switch to ‘custom’ for HDR and ‘cinema’ for regular HD?
@@Ryans09G8GT I think it may be an issue with Denon. When I had a Yamaha receiver it switched, but with the Denon I have now it doesn't. It is annoying I agree. So I run all game systems to TV directly and if you don't want to switch modes for TV/movies use Custom for SDR and HDR but keep clearness off.
I just got my A80J 77" installed....I've watched several of your videos and am a lil confused. is there a set it and forget it "calibration" ? I use a 4k bluray for movies and use the smart features of the tv for Netflix, Hulu, RUclipsTV, etc. I just want to get the best picture possible picture w/out having it pro calibrated. Thank you in advance
Just adjusted per these recommendations. Thanks Classy! When do you recommend turning on cinemotion out of curiosity? I see it’s off for all these settings.
WOW! Now I know why you are called CLASSY! GOD Bless U for sharing your expertise with those of us, like me, that can't afford or do ourself - a FULL Calibration! I have taken me notes and now I am off to enter them and ENJOY this Wonderful TV! Michael
Subbed. I ended up swapping the CX for this. It looked a lot sharper in the store than the C1. Will be here on the 6th and will try these settings out.
hello classy have you or anyone installed the new firmware 6.4284 got it about a week ago don't know if i should install it. any input? to install or wait. thank you again.
Thank your for your video! Just got my 55" last night and this made a HUGE difference. My Only change was setting blue to -10 as I thought -15 pushed out too much redness, but I understand that is preference and possible room lighting. Thank you again!!
I feel like there must have been an update or my TV is very different. The warm color setting is extremely warm for me and setting it like you said just makes the TV super red and warm. The warm setting with the gains all maxed seems fairly accurate but the neutral color temperate seems best for me.
I put mine on Vivid settings and reduced the brightness. Seems best setting to have realistic colors. Other settings seems to lack on colors. Is that normal?
Warm + those colour adjustments looks great on my 55inch 😁👍🏻 less yellow and more accurate compared to expert1 I was using. Still can't get used to HDR/DV being too dark at times though especially dark scenes but then gets too bright with day scenes 🤦♂️🤦♂️ can't keep changing the brightness every time the scene changes lol.
@@attilamorvai nope that's the only negative thing I can find about it. Seems mostly related to disney plus and prime video, HDR in netflix and gaming it looks great 👍🏻
Definitely gonna try these out on my 55” A80J tonight. I’m halfway through watching, but I gotta commend you on how streamlined this video is. Also love that you tested smooth gradation with many games. Great job man.
Is this instead of the service menu settings you shared on AVS forum? I know the other RGB settings were either or. Would it be better to reset the service menu RGB and then use this trick? Does this track close to D65? The default is too blue for me.
After you did Dolby Vision Bright settings, you went into some pictures (HDR) and changed the Custom setting. What source did you use to sent the TV Dolby Vision pictures?
Hey keep it Classy I had my TV calibrated by a well respected calibrator . He does the offset thing. Both Dolby vision bright and dark are going off the SDR day 20 point settings . DV bright looks great the after calibration report looks very good . Dolby dark looks good but the after calibration report isn’t as good as Dolby bright . The RGB balance is not as tight and the color errors are higher . How is my bright much more accurate then the dark according to the report ? Should Dolby dark be using SDR night 20 point ? Or is that just how the offset works ?
Thanks! I pulled the trigger after all on the Sony A80J I receive it tomorrow delivery from Cosco. I talked to someone at Cosco he showed me the add for the month of November Black Friday sale. No more discount price drop from what I seen and he told me. $3,000 is the best price for the 77” I’m just glad I finally got it. This will be my first Oled and large screen at 77” What do I have to check for the screen to make sure it’s a good panel? Hopefully I receive a good one. Thanks in advance
Just look at 4%, 5%, 10%, gray screen patterns for banding. Give it around 100 hours of content and one manual pixel refresh if needed to clean up any banding if you see it.
@@hhinojosareef1 when you get the tv go on RUclips app and type in tv dirty screen test and play one of those videos on RUclips. And then watch it and look for any imperfections on the screen.
Are you recommending these settings above those you shared in the peak brightness video on 14 June? Or should I use those settings if I want more specificity?
Dolby Vision dark finally looks good! I was using the 2 point adjustment from your old video and basically had to use DV bright to keep the colors accurate. I love this.
Are you planning on doing a video like this for the LG C1? Also (assuming budget is ok for both), would you prefer the A80J 77 or the LG C1 83" if you could choose one and why? Does the LG C1 83" need to be calibrated? Thanks.
I have a settings video for the C1/G1 already. I would get the 83" C1 for the size of the price difference didn't matter or for most gaming situations. Otherwise the 77 A80J is the better value.
Hey Classy, I will be buying an a80j in a few days. I was wondering, for night time sdr/sports viewing, instead of constantly switching between standard and cinema, can I instead enable the light sensor on standard and let the tv adjust the brightness for me? or is the quality drop noticebly visible?
Sorry to get a little "off topic", but I am looking for advice/assurance: I recently bought a new SONY 55” A80J OLED TV. The majority of content I stream (movies and TV shows) no longer displays in full screen (streamed through Google Chromecast), even when I go into fullscreen from my app on my windows laptop. My new TV won’t let me use wide screen controls in picture display (it says “feature not available”, probably because I’m not going through an HDMI connection, but just using WiFi). Is there any way I can set or control the aspect ratio of the content I stream? I know the content is dependent on the original format in which it was created. I am seriously concerned about the long term possibility of OLED “screen burnout” if I continually have to watch content with two broad black lines on the top and bottom of my display.Thanks.
You are Awesome. Thank you for this!! I have my "custom" settings and I was really happy with them, but I did set up Standard, Cinema using your settings. They look great. I don't have dolby vision settings as an option. I hope you have another video with settings for the PS5. I just got one and want it to look great too.
HOW do I set my A80J for Dolby Dark as you have it in the first part of the video and HOW do I set it for HDR? There are settings I cannot access (not able to highlight) which forces me to avoid them as I am following the steps provided here. ALSO I have my computer/ PS5 and/ entertainment plugged into HDMI plugins, WHICH access ports should I insert the correct or proper one of these selections?
Amazing results. I followed your recommendations for my A80J 55” and the picture is the best ever. I did the green -1 and the blue -13. Really looks fantastic. I’ve owned this tv for a couple of years and until now I have never been satisfied that my picture was as good as other family members Samsung and LG tv’s. Haven’t had the chance to watch sports yet. Curious to see how the motion looks. Thank you.
Watching Netflix on a 55 inch 80j the black seems to beyond black. Aka like parts of scenes where I think there should be some black are just totally black. Bought this TV straight out of the box settings. Any help you could provide would be much appreciated
I’ve got the a80L. Although this years model, I still applied the settings. However, it seems to keep the same adjustments expert 1 etc without me changing it.
So we’re switching from expert 1 to warm and adjusting 2 points to make it look like expert 1 so that the Judd conversion isn’t done in DV dark correct? But if we don’t need any 2 point changes from expert 1 to fix white point in the first place, DV dark is fine? I’m a little confused on if DV dark is broken from the start, or only if 2 point adjustments are made to expert 1.
Hi Classy, these settings are for an A90J. I actually tried these settings on my X95J and even though it's not the same panel as the A90J, your settings improved my picture too. Is it OK for me to use your settings on an X95J if I don't have an A90J?
Great content as usual. Just curious, why did go from A80J to G1 back A80J. I'm debating getting 65 A80J, 65 C1 or 65JZ1500? Would great to get thoughts.
Because I watch a lot of older content. So I have the A80J for that and a C1 for gaming now. If gaming is important than I would get the C1. We don't have the Panasonic here, but HDTV test shows them to be the most accurate out of the box. A80J is great for older content though and reality creation is nice to have.
Thanks for the settings. Which setting would you recommend for Nighttime TV/sports viewing via Computer hdmi 1080p or 4k content? Cinema or Daytime Tv mode?
Thank you for all your work, very easy to understand and brilliant! In your opinion...do I need to use Nvidea Shield pro, connected to my AVR...if Im NOT using Plex? If you still like the option, I would like to use my streaming apps through the shield and wonder what settings in the SHIELD and my 77" Sony A80J please.
Not sure why you're recommending others to just copy your settings. Your white balance settings will not be accurate for others even if they use the same tv at the same size.
I'm new to this and a bit confused. When you're doing the settings for SDR and HDR, how do I get to each menu? For example, you did the settings for the game mode, which you said used both SDR and HDR, I couldn't tell how you got to each menu to make the adjustments.
Thank you so much for this video! You mention you talk about Cinemotion previously. Can you direct me to that video? Curious when/what setting to use as I notice you have it off on each preset mode in this video. Thanks👍🏼
These settings really made a difference on my A80K as well. How much can I increase the brightness over 30 without disrupting the other settings? The A80K is about 10% less on brightness overall.
Thanks for all the work you’ve done Classy, I’m trying out the settings on my 55 inch and it looks good so far. You’ve made my day👍🏾. Yourself, Fomo, and B Installer made the decision to buy this TV really easy and I will still watch you guys content even though I’ve already made my decision 😃
If your doing a calibration does this tv need to be at gamma 2.2? In the calman video it says sony bases all their hdr off of sdr and they do it at 2.2.
I just got my 77 inch today. So this is basically 4 different profiles saved to the tv to switch between depending on content right? Do you recommend the Netflix calibrated mode when watching Netflix? Also what about the in tv app vs a streaming device?
Hey Classy, greetings from germany, thanks for your effort you put into these videos! I have some nooby questions regarding the different picture-setting-videos you made for the A80J. As a new owner of an 65' model, which of this videos is the one I "need"? Its very difficult for me to differentiate between them ;( A general question regarding the settings is why are you leaving Brightness to max and luminescene to high? I often hear or read that due to burn in prevention the oled panels shouldn't be pushed to their " brightness-limits"? Am i'm missing something out? I would really appreciate your help :)
Burn ins burn ins every time you look around somebody is talking about burn ins bro stay away from those burn in seekers videos. Burn ins are not an issue it’s an issue if you are trashing abusing your TV plus it can happen to any type of TV. You can use max brightness on any settings on the Sony if you could and it wouldn’t be there.
Thanks for this! would you recommend using the Expert 1 as shown in your previous settingsvid from 6 months ago (with fix for modified judd offset, i.e. R = -3 ; B = -6) across all content types, or Warm shown in this vid (with G = -3 ; B = -15) across all content types? Trying to keep it as simple as possible while as accurate as possible. Love your vids!
@@CC3782-r9n Can you help me with a simple question..I'm in picture mode and not getting Dolby vision to come up. Only Vivid, Standard, Cinema, and IMAX Enhanced. Do I have to calibrate other settings first? Thanks
@@Brandosway Scott, you need Dolby content and the tv will bring it up automatically. Try watching house of the dragon on HBO max or Rings of power on prime. Both are Dolby content and should bring up the Dolby settings on the tv
Can you help us pick the right 4k UHD HDR Blu Ray player? The market space is a mess to research and selecting the right one is really difficult. I am not a gamer but currently use an Xbox S but am looking to upgrade (if there is a reasonably priced one) now that I have the Sony A80J OLED TV. I saw some expensive units reviewed lately but most of us can’t really afford units over $1000; really it feels like a equally matched quality 4K HDR blu ray player should be under $500. Thank you so much!
Caught a small error in the wording but doesn't effect the settings or outcome.
The 2pt gain and bias settings are tied to that source input, not the color temp selected.
Advanced 20pt settings are what is tied to the color temp selected.
Again doesn't effect anything other than the mistake in wording.
Thanks for the clarification. If I recall these settings need to be set for each input and internal apps, correct?

Thanks for this. I was wondering. What is the dafault value for 2pt? I forgot to take a picture before editing.
Guys what about 4k movies which don't have HDR, like Breaking Bad??
So we’re switching from expert 1 to warm and adjusting 2 points to make it look like expert 1 so that the Judd conversion isn’t done in DV dark correct? But if we don’t need any 2 point changes from expert 1 to fix white point in the first place, DV dark is fine? I’m a little confused on if DV dark is broken from the start, or only if 2 point adjustments are made to expert 1.
Hi Classy, these settings are for an A90J. I actually tried these settings on my X95J and even though it's not the same panel as the A90J, your settings improved my picture too. Is it OK for me to use your settings on an X95J if I don't have an A90J?
Great content as usual. Just curious, why did go from A80J to G1 back A80J. I'm debating getting 65 A80J, 65 C1 or 65JZ1500? Would great to get thoughts.
Because I watch a lot of older content. So I have the A80J for that and a C1 for gaming now.
If gaming is important than I would get the C1. We don't have the Panasonic here, but HDTV test shows them to be the most accurate out of the box.
A80J is great for older content though and reality creation is nice to have.
I don't have the Dolby vision dark option.. 77 A80j.. how do I unlock that option? Anyone?
Dolby vision dark? Are you sure this about XR A80J which is the oled
I didn't see it on my screen?
Do dark is just too dim. Do bright overflows the luminance. I had the lg oled prior to a Sony and to me, the LG do dv better.
For HDR viewing when using apps like prime or Netflix, do you prefer warm or expert1?
Thanks for the settings. Which setting would you recommend for Nighttime TV/sports viewing via Computer hdmi 1080p or 4k content? Cinema or Daytime Tv mode?
Hi Classy
Can you let me know if you can do a video for X90K setup Calibration talk to you soon thanks Kenny
I used these settings and tv looks amazing. I did already have the Custom Pro 1 and 2 open. Do I need to close them from the menu or just ignore it?
Which one do u recommend lg c2 77inch or sony old a80k 77 inch? Mix use including ps5?
Do these also apply to the A90J as on expert 1 custom I have a bit of green tint which is making it a little flat looking.
Thank you for all your work, very easy to understand and brilliant!
In your opinion...do I need to use Nvidea Shield pro, connected to my AVR...if Im NOT using Plex?
If you still like the option, I would like to use my streaming apps through the shield and wonder what settings in the SHIELD and my 77" Sony A80J please.
my xr-77a80j tv changes picture mode to vivid every time i switch inputs or changing from app to another. how can i fix it to custom?
Do these settings use the 512 for all the wb in the service menu? Or 527 for R WB gain and 537 for G WB gain?
When setting up to custom on my sony a8j 55in tv how do you get HDR TO come when when setting up thanks
Not sure why you're recommending others to just copy your settings. Your white balance settings will not be accurate for others even if they use the same tv at the same size.
I'm new to this and a bit confused. When you're doing the settings for SDR and HDR, how do I get to each menu? For example, you did the settings for the game mode, which you said used both SDR and HDR, I couldn't tell how you got to each menu to make the adjustments.
Do you think these settings would transfer over to the 65a90j?
Thank you so much for this video! You mention you talk about Cinemotion previously. Can you direct me to that video? Curious when/what setting to use as I notice you have it off on each preset mode in this video. Thanks👍🏼
He mentions that for high quality content cine motion on high and for lower low
I already have Custom for Pro 1 but can I use these settings instead on Custom without having to rest the tv to get rid of Custom for Pro 1?
These settings really made a difference on my A80K as well. How much can I increase the brightness over 30 without disrupting the other settings? The A80K is about 10% less on brightness overall.
Request for calibration on 77" A80K please.
Peak luminance for SDR game should be medium not high?
out of the box, my 65 inch had too much red so I was kinda surprised to this this. The red on people's faces is what sticks out.
Thanks for all the work you’ve done Classy, I’m trying out the settings on my 55 inch and it looks good so far. You’ve made my day👍🏾. Yourself, Fomo, and B Installer made the decision to buy this TV really easy and I will still watch you guys content even though I’ve already made my decision 😃
I’m curious if you used his previous settings when he went into the SM. If so how is the picture compared to these new changes?
@@B1ackAlloy1992 Didn’t use the SM sorry
Thanks!
77a80j here, is DV worth using now or still go with nomal hdr
what is the most accurate mode if watching regular 4k non hdr non dolby?
Why HDMI video range is on auto = full and not on limited?
If your doing a calibration does this tv need to be at gamma 2.2? In the calman video it says sony bases all their hdr off of sdr and they do it at 2.2.
I just got my 77 inch today. So this is basically 4 different profiles saved to the tv to switch between depending on content right? Do you recommend the Netflix calibrated mode when watching Netflix? Also what about the in tv app vs a streaming device?
I notch my gamma up to 1 on dv dark. That’s the sweet spot for me.
Hey Classy, greetings from germany, thanks for your effort you put into these videos!
I have some nooby questions regarding the different picture-setting-videos you made for the A80J.
As a new owner of an 65' model, which of this videos is the one I "need"? Its very difficult for me to differentiate between them ;(
A general question regarding the settings is why are you leaving Brightness to max and luminescene to high? I often hear or read that due to burn in prevention the oled panels shouldn't be pushed to their " brightness-limits"? Am i'm missing something out?
I would really appreciate your help :)
Burn ins burn ins every time you look around somebody is talking about burn ins bro stay away from those burn in seekers videos. Burn ins are not an issue it’s an issue if you are trashing abusing your TV plus it can happen to any type of TV. You can use max brightness on any settings on the Sony if you could and it wouldn’t be there.
Good video would u do a video on how to set up the Xbox series x on the Sony a90k 42 in
Some bad calibration practice in this video...sorry to say.
Off topic, but who is the blonde woman in the picture?
Thanks for this! would you recommend using the Expert 1 as shown in your previous settingsvid from 6 months ago (with fix for modified judd offset, i.e. R = -3 ; B = -6) across all content types, or Warm shown in this vid (with G = -3 ; B = -15) across all content types? Trying to keep it as simple as possible while as accurate as possible. Love your vids!
That’s a good question.
It’s sad he can’t take the time to answer your simple question
@@CC3782-r9n Can you help me with a simple question..I'm in picture mode and not getting Dolby vision to come up. Only Vivid, Standard, Cinema, and IMAX Enhanced. Do I have to calibrate other settings first?
Thanks
@@Brandosway Scott, you need Dolby content and the tv will bring it up automatically. Try watching house of the dragon on HBO max or Rings of power on prime. Both are Dolby content and should bring up the Dolby settings on the tv
@@CC3782-r9n I'm on prime watching Lord on the Pic mode, still no Dolby? It just added game and graphics. I'm Doing something wrong here!
How come I don’t see Dolby vision dark or hdr as an option?
I noticed some bad blurring when in vivid mode on my a80j it went away when I switched to Dolby bright. What could be causing this
LOL this was intense! only in layman settings it was epic. Thank's!
Can you help us pick the right 4k UHD HDR Blu Ray player? The market space is a mess to research and selecting the right one is really difficult. I am not a gamer but currently use an Xbox S but am looking to upgrade (if there is a reasonably priced one) now that I have the Sony A80J OLED TV. I saw some expensive units reviewed lately but most of us can’t really afford units over $1000; really it feels like a equally matched quality 4K HDR blu ray player should be under $500. Thank you so much!
What if i keep mt ATV set to 4K DV (need those screensavers), is there a workaround to not mess up the colors when viewing non HDR content
Classy, would you apply all these settings to the A80K as well?
Any changes for PAL TV 1080i /25 TV Rec709.
