Thanks for the final step in turning my s90c gen 2 into a 1500 max nit beauty after changing the model to the 55 s95c version and raising anapeak1 & 2 to 1023. Insanely amazing picture now, it's as bright as it was with contrast enhancer to max but with actually accurate colors.
This TV is Amazing!!!! AMAZING!!!!...Mythoti your 3D! 1420 Luminance boost with service menu tour, settings, & new white point is JUST the BEST! , THANK YOU
Thank you for your kind words and you are very welcome, I'm really glad they improved your experience, the ones I have running now are slightly more unstable but Jesus Christ on a cracker it's the best imagery I've ever seen, this video brought attention from some who are knowledgeable with the intimate workings of the hidden menu inside the service menu, peak luminance boost video is coming, but if you look through this thread, you'll see every single ounce of info necessary to do what I have, including how to boost peak luminance and proper new base luminance settings, along with a comment containing all my current new settings that work well with newly enhanced peak brightness 👌
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 👍🏽. Also, thank you for the ANA peak 1 and 2 at 1023 setting change as well. I’m sure all the S95B owners wanted their brightness back 😁
Thank you so much. I applied these setting to my Q80b even though these settings are for the S95B and the image looks great. I made a few small adjustments as my panel couldn't handle the forty six color setting and I adjusted my sharpness to ten because I was getting slight flickering at seventeen but other than that I couldn't be happier. 👍👍
So do you think this will work on the Q70C as well cuzz? And do you need to change all the other settings? Will it make a difference just changing the luminance on the service menu?

@@inderveerjohal7218 Warning! These are experimental settings! - The Service Menu can be a dangerous place where changes can be made impacting the sound function of your TV. Some can be difficult to revert or even in some rare instances brick your TV. Proceed with caution. Disclaimer: You and and you alone are responsible for electing to make the changes explained below and thus responsible for any consequences that follow. EX (for experimental) Dynamic Mode HDR D65 Modification Instructions and Settings Recommendations (EXD65 for short) Instructions (require work in advanced service menu): First ensure you are in Dynamic Mode HDR (this can be achieved by loading HDR content) and turn off Contrast Enhancer in the Expert Settings then exit menus. On remote (classic physical one or Smart Things app virtual remote) mute,1,1,9,OK then when hospitality menu comes up 1,2,3,4 then Service Menu will come up. You can now use the new slim remote for the following steps. Press down on the circle pad until you arrive at "Advanced" and stop with it selected then hold up on the volume switch for 10 seconds and the "Advanced" options should appear. Select "WBMovie" and press the center button. Then press the center button while on "W/B Movie ON/OFF" bringing up the small window with the option. Press right on circle pad once to change to "ON" and hit back button (U arrow) to return to W/B Movie menu. Press down to go to "Color Tone" and press button to bring up the option in a small window to change it. Now, just to be sure you are still in the right mode hit the menu button (has cog on it) to bring up the quick menu bar to check if you are still in "Dynamic Mode HDR", if not change it back via the menu bar as you normally would then hit back to exit quick menu bar. Now press right on pad till Color Tone option arrives at "Warm 2" (you should see the color tone on the screen change as you do this) then hit the back button to exit back to the W/B Movie Mode Menu. Now go back up to W/B Movie option select it being up the small option window and select "OFF". Now press the power button on the remote to turn off the display. When you power the display back on and play HDR content and with Dynamic Mode HDR selected it should say "Warm 2" under Color Tone in expert menu settings (It will stay this way until you revert). Notes: I am on firmware 1304 but this should in theory work on any firmware. I am pretty sure this is only possible because of a bug in the SM. If you attempt to do something similar with Dynamic Mode SDR it will not keep Warm 2 once you turn W/B Movie off unfortunately. If I am correct, they could fix this later (though I highly doubt it) but in the meanwhile it's nice to believe an oversight with this TV worked out in our favor for once. If you all manage to get similar results to what I have you should be pleased. It was very difficult to line up colors through CMS with DTM in play but I did my best and after review feel it is reasonably close to my FMM config geared towards accuracy. For now, I am satisfied with the results. Here are the settings I recommend now that Warm 2 is available in Dynamic Mode: Brightness 50 Contrast 50 Sharpness 10 (preference) Color 15 Tint G2 Picture Clarity Settings (whatever you desire) Contrast Enhancer OFF (Not recommended here as it negatively impacts color accuracy, causes desaturation, and clipping) Color Tone (You won't have to touch this ever again as it should be locked on "Warm 2") White Balance (In this particular instance unless you have a meter to line it up use my following WB settings to get you as close as possible otherwise) RG 7 GG 0 BG -7 RO -2 GO 0 BO 0 Gamma ST.2048 ST.2048 -2 Shadow Detail 0 Color Space Settings (Custom BT.2020) CMS: Red - R11 G96 B42 Green - R68 G11 B32 Blue- R87 G87 B99 Yellow - R50 G50 B50 Cyan- R50 G50 B50 Magenta- R0 G0 B100 Exit...

Sounds like youve explored the service menu quite a bit. Have you either come across a doc outling the options or documented anything yourself? Curious the full capabilities. Like id like to remove the volume OSD since its so huge and annoying, for example. But unsure what else might be available. Thanks
Nope, nothing official or even on paper, just me and seeing the impact each tweak made and using my understanding of each as I went along to calibrate and push it the direction I was going for, every adjustment simply a series of tradeoffs, the goal to trade its weaknesses in for it's strengths, I found it struggles with low light details so boosting the APL was where I started, and when I felt it was clear enough and ground out most of the artifacts and imperfections I focused on utilizing it's color luminance and contrast to apply a hyper-realistic look, this video is one of my oldest, you want the good that shows what she can really do look at the video that's the newest on my channel about the S95B, the details in this particular video were from before I had the full understanding I have now
As far as manipulating the banners like the sound levels displayed on the screen I've never considered it, but I'd imagine it's in there somewhere, I'd be weary though, trying to remove things that let you see decisions made on your tv sounds like it could be sketchy territory without knowing exactly what the results will be when you make them so just be careful, if you do make any adjustments that haven't been verified yet be sure to take a snap shot of all settings before adjusting so you can try to undo anything you might find unsatisfactory
Is your VRR problem solved? Because mine was not working too then I realised somewhere in this service menu there's Game Mode option which was on 1. Switched it to 9 and now VRR is working.
I don't know where the dial pad is on the SmartThings app. I do not have the option to type the numbers. Any suggestions? or am I needing to include something? Thank you again for your hard work!
Make sure both the tv and phone are on the same network, after you load smart things go to Devices, tap your S95B, after it loads look for the banner at the bottom of the screen that says remote, tap it, another banner at the bottom loads, hit the option for the dial pad, should be the 3rd option over, then just tap mute, 1, 1, 9, enter, wait a sec for a screen to load that says "hospitality" then hit 1, 2, 3, 4, then set down your phone and use your actual remote for the rest of the navigation
@@mythoti So after I press my S95b, and press the "remote control banner" I do not have a dial pad option. I only have a "4-d pad, CH, 123, and Options" sections. Any advice?
@@mythoti For some reason, It still does not work. Are you able to make a short video on how to open it. When I press enter, it selects an app on the TV
Thank you very much for your settings! Maybe a dumb question but what happens when samsung rolls out the next update? Will the change of the luminance mess with the update or does it simply overwrite it?
The last update came while I had my luminance set for 100 from it's original 48 for 1304, which was perfect for it at the time, the update capped the brightness so the highlights no longer pushed past the base luminance at that level, that's how I knew something was off to begin with, found out my tv had updated, went into service menu to see it still at 100, updates apparently leave these settings alone, but how it affects the overall output was another story, had to reign it back to 75 for the highlights to pop again by contrast to the base luminance
@@mythoti ok thx! Would you mind providing a new luminance level if an update "destroys" the setting again? Your settings really look good but I'm "scared" of future updates if you know what I mean. Sorry, I'm a real noob 😉
If on older firmware everyone use 100 instead on 75 and all eco settings off. In my 1211 update its amazing and auto update you can turn off turning clock to manual and unplug the tv so it does not have time att all. Ant thanks man those setting are great 😀
I can not install new firmware 1430.1_1020.3 after the 1430.1 to samsung qn90b from USB and online .From the forums, it seems that no one can do this after the 1430.1 update. It is the same issues evan to S95B .
Does anyone game in hdr with these settings? I’m worried about burn in. I only play for a couple of hours at a time but with these high brightness settings I still feel like it’s a concern. If anyone has had an issue with that please let me know.
So is does it look as good as it did with original firmware or would u say better.. would u advise to leave original firmware if one could, or now update n go into service menu?
The original firmware definitely had a more robust color template, personally my preference would be 1304 colors with this brightness boost, I found them to be the most accurate while adding amazing pop, earlier was a little rougher edged but stronger in delivery, 1420 is probably the most accurate but also the most underwhelming
What's your game mode settings 🤔? These settings look kinda washed out for my taste I had to lower down the Gamma and shadow detail to 0, 0 I believe and it looks fantastic THANKS !! 👏 side note I just use this tv to game 🎮 on the xbox series X
@@Droppadellic You're welcome here's my settings for gaming Brightness 50 Contrast 41 Sharpness 18 Color 45 Tint 0 Contrast enhancer High Color tone Standard Gamma 0 Shadow 1 Color space Native Peak Brightness High
No, if you haven't purchased yet, I'd personally wait till this year's panels release, and I'd definitely suggest the Sony over the Samsung, even if you need to wait for price drops, but if you decide Samsung I'd still wait for the S95C, however I'd take how that picture looks right offhand with a grain of salt thanks to forced updates, thus Sony being my strongest recommendation
@@mythoti i was thinking the same. Not getting the S95B and waiting for the S95C.. However, I have a feeling that prices for these QD-OLED’s will be a lot more in 2023 and I also have a feeling that Samsung will fuck consumers over by updating the Firmware for the S95C and doing the same thing they just did with the S95B… Therefore, I have my eyes on the S95B 65inch since it’s only $1,800.. I seriously have a feeling that even by January of 2024, the S95C will be at $2,800 - $2,500 after the price drop of I am assuming $4,000 - $3,500 for a 65inch S95C since everyone will want a QD-OLED TV…
@@Xstream718 I thought the same and rushed on the S95B, worst error of the year, I brought it back for the G2 which is way more pleasing. Random firmwares are just unacceptable, menu crashes several times per day, no DV, and you have to changes settings for the picture everytime your swap source otherwise it looks horrid. Now I just don't touch anything and it always appear good. I even lower luminosity to 40 when I watch movies anyway
Hi i have a question. Now My firm is 1304. Plc default liminance was 45. And then changed 75. But i don know what different brightness. I just want go back 1211 ver. Thats ery great. I miss 1211 firm. So need change 100? Not 75? My galaxy phone is oled. Disney plus eternals hdr movie very good. But not my s95b 1304 ver. 1211 was very good 1304 is not good dark scene.
1304 is awesome, has the best color palette, you just need to bump your ana peak 2 brightness to 1023 and PLC Default Liminance to 70, check my newest video titled "make your S95B smoke an A95K" for details on boosting peak luminance in secret menu
Can anyone help please. I cannot access the service menu on my s95b using this method as when I press mute, my tv turns on. I ha e also reset the TV but that didn't help either.
Must use smart things app, connect to tv using same wifi, while tv is on press "Mute,1,1,9, Enter" in smart things app from dial pad on bottom banner, third option to the right, the mute button on there with the tv already on should just mute the tv and continue the process, after the last button "Enter" if done correctly a hospital menu appears, then just press 1,2,3,4 and that should bring you to the general service menu where you can just use your physical remote
High PLC Default Luminance create the soap opera effect on movies , even with all the motion setings disabled ?Please, tell me, what values would be suitable for a good cinematic movement . I have an 65 inch Qn90b , and the firmware is 1430.1 , the same as S95b. With 1310.1 firmware everything was fine . Thanks.
In the Service Menu you find the point EPA. Here you set ANA Peak 1 and 2 to 1023. This restores the peak brightness of 1500 nits. Works like a charm and looks fantastic. Disclaimer: like every change in the Service Menu everything at your own risk.
Seriously?! As soon as I get off work I'll run a series of tests, if this turns out accurate I'll make a new video with new settings to accommodate new brightness levels, can you please drop the navigational path for these? Option/QD2/PLC Default Liminance for example
@@mythoti I had tried twice now to post the link with detailed instructions, it was always removed by YT. For whatever reason. But it's not difficult, first go to the service menu as described, then go to advanced and press the volume up on remote controll for a few seconds. Another menu appears. Select EPA (last point at the bottom). Now Look for two points called ANA Peak 1 and ANA Peak 2. They both have to be on 1023 (one is already 1023, the other is lower. Change that one to 1023 too). Thats it.
@@mythoti I think I found the instructions in the AVS Forums. Or AVForums. Anyway, it works great with FW 1310, but I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work with 1420 as well. Wish you success.
@@SamLombardo74 I hope this returns the colors that disappeared with the new update also, though there's a chance they monkeyed with some of the color settings separately in the update
Is there a service menu setting to disable future firmware updates? I dont want to have to keep re inputting the numbers everytime Samsung releases an update and it resets..
All you can do is either turn off auto-update or disconnect from the internet, I haven't had any forced since 1430, that's where I still sit, I just reject the updates when they occasionally pop up by backing out of the window when it pops up
Bro white bias lighting helps me with the 3d depth a lot with my c1. Do you know how I can do similar settings to what you have done with your samsung on my c1?
I'd hafta play with it to dial in the right effects, specifically with contrast and gamma combinations to see what hits your panel and it's capabilities in the right way to drive out the 3D impact I aim for
All at 10, I like maxed out for buttery smooth, these settings grind out any gradience or artifacts that otherwise would be introduced, it's PQ crystal clear and motion fluid like mercury 👌
For me after the 1420 update motion has become pretty bad with clarity settings on auto or maximum for fast moving objects. Try running judder tests of 24/30 fps videos and see how fast-moving contrasty objects leave lots of artifacts around them. In 60fps its all good. And also when clarity is turned off but then there's a slight stutter for the whole picture.
wait everyone!!! at the end at 3 min 54!!!!! you can see the movie mode is in HDR mode!!!! normally you are not supposed to change those setting!!! all other online video say the same thing!!! you only modify sdr setting! you dont touch the HDR setting!! at 4min36 you can see the gamma is ST 2084 and you can't change it its not for nothing!!! you are not supposed to touch to the HDR setting.. it auto calibrate on the mode you use, Dynamic, standard, movie and i think it dont work in filmmaker no HDR filmmaker appear when viewing hdr content... and did you saw the max nits of those display on paper????? it do 1400 nits and it dont have heatsink like the sony A95k! so if the company lower it so we only have 75% its mean for! you reduce your tv life using it at 100% like in cars!!!! you can go up to 200-240 km/h but you never go faster than 100-130 km/h... imagine your cars life always using it at 95-99% efficiency
Just go to the play store and download it, then make sure your phone and TV are sharing the same wifi and connect them in the app, click remote banner on the bottom, then click the 123 option at the bottom to bring up dial pad, then press mute, 1, 1, 9, Enter, wait for Hospitality menu to load, then press 1, 2, 3, 4 and that will bring you to the primary service menu page
Nice picture but one issue with "native" instead of auto colour space makes the people facea too orange or redish. Something need changed in this colour scheme push of the red colour beeing too much push on the screen. Some ideas?
Skin tones are showing natural for me, try maybe bringing the color down a hair, luminance colors like lighting around the onscreen character can heavily impact tones with saturation in some scenes but most scenes are resolving perfectly for me, I'd say play around with the white point to remove the pushes that you feel are too heavy, I push some tones slightly to boost the 3D impact while remaining as natural as I could get the panel to allow for, any less took away from the clean 3d effect I was looking to establish, all the colors have felt off since the update, this is the best I've managed for color accuracy with 3D impact, I'm sure I could come up with completely natural settings but the end result wouldn't be much different than an LG C2, I know that's what some people are looking for but I got a QD-OLED for the next level colors and punch it could provide, this is the best balance I've found so far, try watching a few different things with these settings, my strongest suggestion is Virtual Japan here on RUclips, amazing content to showcase just how natural the skin tones really are with super high graded HDR content pushed to it
@@mythoti The Colors are totally off. Worst picture settings ever. And has nothing to do with a natural Look. You made an High End TV looks like an Entry Level TV. ...
For about 10 minutes it turns off the tv and I can only assume that it's running a pixel refresh program during that time, I usually cancel it out because it always pops up while I'm actively trying to use the tv
What's the point of going to the service menu and changing the Screen Saver Brightness from 7 to 0, if I can do the same thing just by changing Adjust Logo Brightness to Off in regular TV settings?
Can this be used with ANAPEAK2? I was already afraid to raise it from 670 to 1023 because I game on my television a bit, so i only raised ANAPEAK to 799. Still a visible imporvement, but just hope this still wont lower the life of the tv.
@@mythoti found the solution. first i used info, menu, mute off to access service menu. Then i tried ur method then i got the advanced tab in the service menu
@@shap7296 I eventually did get burn in, but was my fault for playing over 700 hours of Balder's Gate with very little mixed content, it still looks amazing and I hardly ever see the patterns but they do show in certain scenes
Yes sir, absolutely, nothing truly worthwhile comes without risks, I knew before I even started that there was a chance it could do more harm than good, however after dropping more than $1300 on this tv, then waking up one day to it sucking donkey balls, I found it was a risk worth taking, and it paid off in spades
@@mythoti Haha great way to put it. Thanks for the extremely fast response. I just bought my S95B and after 2hrs of tweaking I got it to look good. If you believe the risk is worth it then I will go for it. What really are the risks? I also have a 5 year warranty so would any of this void it?
@@mythoti I would also like this tv to last 5 years so I hope any of this wouldn't really shorten its lifespan. I heard that it has an estimated 1million hours life so maybe I don't have to worry about that.
@@OminousBlast if 100,000 hours can last LG WRGB OLEDs at least 4 years, 1 million should give plenty of wiggle room to bump brightness without cost to the 5 year window you seek to have 👌 yes, it was worth the risk to me, the imagery I stare at now completely annihilates anything I've ever seen in my life, I should have more info on the warranty later today, I have a Samsung tech scheduled to come fix my vrr, either he will, or he won't, there is a service log that displays all corrections to the service menu since factory release, including those prior to factory resets, however they don't have time stamps, so no way to indicate when they were applied, in my case I bought my S95B open box from BB, meaning it had prior owners, if I really have to I could take it back to them if I get denied by Samsung after they inspect the unit for selling me a tv with claims of a manufacturer warranty that wasn't present when required, in which case even past their 2 weeks they'd have no choice but to take the return, I'm hoping Samsung won't be dumb about it considering they're the ones that forced me to do all this to begin with by forcing the update that broke my tv, sh*t now it looks better than anything else on the market, even if these settings do break VRR I'd say the tradeoff for me is worth it, I'm 50% gamer, 50% video buff, if I can kick my video experience up by several fold at the expense of a fraction of the gaming experience I definitely say yes, worth it over and over again
@@mythoti Damn man I’m sure you’ll be fine man. There’s no way they can deny you warranty if anything happens. This TV seems amazing build wise but it gets really pushed down by the customer support/Samsung decision making. I’ll be waiting for your response here! I noticed the picture quality of my TV gets better the darker it is. Will it still benefit from a luminosity boost then? And I don’t game on it so I don’t mind sacrificing gaming features. Luminosity boost still the way to go for me?
Hey, thanks for your interest in my settings, check the newest video in my channel for true boost, this video here was my earliest, least refined settings, the newest video has updated, completely refined settings for peak brightness boost in tandem with the base luminance boost you see here 😁
@@mythoti Can the base boost luminance setting be fine on its own without the other settings you talk about in this video? I've changed it from 48 to 75 but don't really see any difference.
@@Revolver1981 because this is simply the base luminance boost, it will give a brighter overall image, but the peak nits remains the same, check my newest video, shows how to access the secret hidden menu to increase peak luminance, it won't even look like the same tv by the time you are done, check it out and check out the comments that have anything to say about it 😁 just click on my icon and check my top video titled S95B Hyper-Reality Settings, it's only 5 minutes
Yes, this comes across exceptionally well for HDR content since much of the material is graded in colors that don't show well under lower luminance levels, boosting the base luminance value will draw out more solid impact in each individual object onscreen to make it appear more 3D, LG is using this technique with their 2023 lineup to try to keep up with QD-OLED, along with peak brightness boosts, the S95B gets a better benefit from this process though, since it's quantum dots' colors don't wash out at higher luminance levels like standard WRGB OLEDs on any LG

People like Mythoti, Holm Stadermann and J. Cochran are super heros of S95B universe on a mission against Samsung villains. To sum up the boost tweak: 1. Change PLC Default Liminance to 75 or 70, Screen Saver Brightness to 0 and ANA Peak 2 to 1023. 2. Mythoti's settings: Contrast 43 Sharpness 19 Color 46 Contrast Enhancer Low Color Tone Warm 2 Gamma 1 Shadow Detail 5 2 Point WP Balance: 3 2 6 6 2 3 20 Point WP Balance: 35% 6 4 5 Clarity: all at 10 This is for HDR, right? Any recommended settings for SDR?
For you I'd say boost luminance to 100 instead of 75, the earlier updates were more capable of rendering at higher base luminance levels, with 1304 I had it at 100 and it was incredible, after update 1420 capped the panel I had to drop it to 75 to draw out the proper 3d effect since the specular highlights could no longer push beyond the base luminance in an effective manner with the cap, but no cap means higher brightness levels and a better picture for you, lucky mofo lol, have you kept it offline this entire time?
@@mythoti they really downgrade it that 2023 models would look good. I turn of auto timming 4 days ago and tv is supper bright. Lets se what is really capable 😀
@@uusrikas the only downside is while the older updates are more capable, they also require more constant adjustments, I literally had to come up with entire lists of settings for different movies to make each one look good, was a pain in the neck but my OCD ass refuses to watch anything in less than pristine quality, that's the only true benefit behind the newest update, I don't have to change a thing where I have it now, everything seems to come together the way I intended with these same settings, one hell of a trade off, quality of life vs super boosted imagery is a toughie, but as long as I'm satisfied looking at my tv I can't complain too hard, other than to Samsung, mfs stole my choice
This is a follow-up video to another one I made last month titled "Make The S95B 3D Again After 1420", the "more" in this title essentially marks this as the sequel, while remaining accurate to exactly what it says
@@unbanmekoil this is slightly different, closer akin to sterioscopic 3D by way of depth perception, only instead of throwing different tints at each eye for the effect it utilizes the infinite contrast and high peak luminance it has, the 90%+ bt 2020 HDR color gamut presentation this panel is capable of only amplifies the effect to something absolutely beautiful, but no it's not HDR I refer to, even my AMOLED phone is capable of producing this effect with regular SDR content, to such a degree people tap me on the shoulder on the bus frequently to ask me just how the hell it looks that way, it's all about contrast, peak brightness, and processing, HDR is just the icing on the cake 👌
I had it set to 100 for 1304, I had to bring it down to 75 after 1420 because the brightness cap made it so the specular highlights could no longer push beyond the base luminance in an effective manner
@@Km47. yeah, part of my problem after the update was it threw off my original boosted settings from 1304, took me a while to figure out that my boost of 100 was actually hurting update 1420 PQ by blowing out the picture in a way that darker colors were too bright and highlights didn't pop like they should, rolling it back to 75 kept the 3d impactful boost I was looking for while allowing for the darker colors to keep their integrity and the highlights to pop off the screen by contrast once again
This is perhaps the most important S95B video and comment section on RUclips 👍🏾

Thank you for your kind words and you are very welcome, I'm really glad they improved your experience, the ones I have running now are slightly more unstable but Jesus Christ on a cracker it's the best imagery I've ever seen, this video brought attention from some who are knowledgeable with the intimate workings of the hidden menu inside the service menu, peak luminance boost video is coming, but if you look through this thread, you'll see every single ounce of info necessary to do what I have, including how to boost peak luminance and proper new base luminance settings, along with a comment containing all my current new settings that work well with newly enhanced peak brightness 👌
I done this settings and couple more from youtube videos in service menu now I can feel im watching expensive tv :D
Wow, so much better.
Thank you 👍🙌👌
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 👍🏽. Also, thank you for the ANA peak 1 and 2 at 1023 setting change as well. I’m sure all the S95B owners wanted their brightness back 😁
Did it break your vrr? I wanna do this so bad but I'm a gamer and don't want to break my vrr
@@Droppadellic I did this yesterday and it didn't break my vrr
Have you tried the new version 1430.1?
Life saver
Thanks
What is your motion smoothing, it looks so good
Maxed out for buttery smooth movement 😁
Thx! All good except the contract enhancer NEEDS to be OFF, otherwise it clips and CRUSHES LOTS of details (both bright n shadow details). Have fun!
Thank you so much. I applied these setting to my Q80b even though these settings are for the S95B and the image looks great. I made a few small adjustments as my panel couldn't handle the forty six color setting and I adjusted my sharpness to ten because I was getting slight flickering at seventeen but other than that I couldn't be happier. 👍👍
So do you think this will work on the Q70C as well cuzz? And do you need to change all the other settings? Will it make a difference just changing the luminance on the service menu?
@@Revolver1981 I am not really sure, but it is definitely worth a shot. They are very similar televisions so it may work out. Best of luck. I hope it works out for you.
And some tips for Xbox Hdr settings number of clicks because the image seems to be overblown in this 1420 update , only playstation tips can be found about what nr of cliks can be made. I have the tv from december and I dont know how it looked before.
i just bought the another samsung tv controller cuz my smart app is not working. the combination you said is not working. what did i wrong? mute 119 Enter

You could access warm 2 on Dynamic mode and lock it in through the service menu as well.
How do you lock it in in the service menu?
@TaSeti please add how to do this

@@inderveerjohal7218 Warning! These are experimental settings! - The Service Menu can be a dangerous place where changes can be made impacting the sound function of your TV. Some can be difficult to revert or even in some rare instances brick your TV. Proceed with caution.
Disclaimer: You and and you alone are responsible for electing to make the changes explained below and thus responsible for any consequences that follow.
EX (for experimental) Dynamic Mode HDR D65 Modification Instructions and Settings Recommendations (EXD65 for short)
Instructions (require work in advanced service menu):
First ensure you are in Dynamic Mode HDR (this can be achieved by loading HDR content) and turn off Contrast Enhancer in the Expert Settings then exit menus. On remote (classic physical one or Smart Things app virtual remote) mute,1,1,9,OK then when hospitality menu comes up 1,2,3,4 then Service Menu will come up. You can now use the new slim remote for the following steps. Press down on the circle pad until you arrive at "Advanced" and stop with it selected then hold up on the volume switch for 10 seconds and the "Advanced" options should appear. Select "WBMovie" and press the center button. Then press the center button while on "W/B Movie ON/OFF" bringing up the small window with the option. Press right on circle pad once to change to "ON" and hit back button (U arrow) to return to W/B Movie menu. Press down to go to "Color Tone" and press button to bring up the option in a small window to change it. Now, just to be sure you are still in the right mode hit the menu button (has cog on it) to bring up the quick menu bar to check if you are still in "Dynamic Mode HDR", if not change it back via the menu bar as you normally would then hit back to exit quick menu bar. Now press right on pad till Color Tone option arrives at "Warm 2" (you should see the color tone on the screen change as you do this) then hit the back button to exit back to the W/B Movie Mode Menu. Now go back up to W/B Movie option select it being up the small option window and select "OFF". Now press the power button on the remote to turn off the display. When you power the display back on and play HDR content and with Dynamic Mode HDR selected it should say "Warm 2" under Color Tone in expert menu settings (It will stay this way until you revert).
Notes: I am on firmware 1304 but this should in theory work on any firmware. I am pretty sure this is only possible because of a bug in the SM. If you attempt to do something similar with Dynamic Mode SDR it will not keep Warm 2 once you turn W/B Movie off unfortunately. If I am correct, they could fix this later (though I highly doubt it) but in the meanwhile it's nice to believe an oversight with this TV worked out in our favor for once. If you all manage to get similar results to what I have you should be pleased. It was very difficult to line up colors through CMS with DTM in play but I did my best and after review feel it is reasonably close to my FMM config geared towards accuracy. For now, I am satisfied with the results.
Here are the settings I recommend now that Warm 2 is available in Dynamic Mode:
Brightness 50
Contrast 50
Sharpness 10 (preference)
Color 15
Tint G2
Picture Clarity Settings (whatever you desire)
Contrast Enhancer OFF (Not recommended here as it negatively impacts color accuracy, causes desaturation, and clipping)
Color Tone (You won't have to touch this ever again as it should be locked on "Warm 2")
White Balance (In this particular instance unless you have a meter to line it up use my following WB settings to get you as close as possible otherwise)
RG 7 GG 0 BG -7 RO -2 GO 0 BO 0
Gamma ST.2048
ST.2048 -2
Shadow Detail 0
Color Space Settings (Custom BT.2020)
CMS:
Red - R11 G96 B42
Green - R68 G11 B32
Blue- R87 G87 B99
Yellow - R50 G50 B50
Cyan- R50 G50 B50
Magenta- R0 G0 B100 Exit...
Peak Brightness High (Hit 1503 nits once ABL was jogged in a 2% window)
Enjoy! As always any feedback is welcomed!
Very good video thank you
Sounds like youve explored the service menu quite a bit. Have you either come across a doc outling the options or documented anything yourself? Curious the full capabilities. Like id like to remove the volume OSD since its so huge and annoying, for example. But unsure what else might be available. Thanks
Nope, nothing official or even on paper, just me and seeing the impact each tweak made and using my understanding of each as I went along to calibrate and push it the direction I was going for, every adjustment simply a series of tradeoffs, the goal to trade its weaknesses in for it's strengths, I found it struggles with low light details so boosting the APL was where I started, and when I felt it was clear enough and ground out most of the artifacts and imperfections I focused on utilizing it's color luminance and contrast to apply a hyper-realistic look, this video is one of my oldest, you want the good that shows what she can really do look at the video that's the newest on my channel about the S95B, the details in this particular video were from before I had the full understanding I have now
As far as manipulating the banners like the sound levels displayed on the screen I've never considered it, but I'd imagine it's in there somewhere, I'd be weary though, trying to remove things that let you see decisions made on your tv sounds like it could be sketchy territory without knowing exactly what the results will be when you make them so just be careful, if you do make any adjustments that haven't been verified yet be sure to take a snap shot of all settings before adjusting so you can try to undo anything you might find unsatisfactory
Is your VRR problem solved? Because mine was not working too then I realised somewhere in this service menu there's Game Mode option which was on 1. Switched it to 9 and now VRR is working.
Any gaming settings?
I don't know where the dial pad is on the SmartThings app. I do not have the option to type the numbers. Any suggestions? or am I needing to include something? Thank you again for your hard work!
Make sure both the tv and phone are on the same network, after you load smart things go to Devices, tap your S95B, after it loads look for the banner at the bottom of the screen that says remote, tap it, another banner at the bottom loads, hit the option for the dial pad, should be the 3rd option over, then just tap mute, 1, 1, 9, enter, wait a sec for a screen to load that says "hospitality" then hit 1, 2, 3, 4, then set down your phone and use your actual remote for the rest of the navigation
@@mythoti So after I press my S95b, and press the "remote control banner" I do not have a dial pad option. I only have a "4-d pad, CH, 123, and Options" sections. Any advice?
@@Bshiraz 1,2,3 is the dial pad
@@mythoti For some reason, It still does not work. Are you able to make a short video on how to open it. When I press enter, it selects an app on the TV
Can you make please 1430 all settings ? You can make fast we can paused
The irony, put that video up yesterday, check my channel for the newest upload
Thank you very much for your settings! Maybe a dumb question but what happens when samsung rolls out the next update? Will the change of the luminance mess with the update or does it simply overwrite it?
The last update came while I had my luminance set for 100 from it's original 48 for 1304, which was perfect for it at the time, the update capped the brightness so the highlights no longer pushed past the base luminance at that level, that's how I knew something was off to begin with, found out my tv had updated, went into service menu to see it still at 100, updates apparently leave these settings alone, but how it affects the overall output was another story, had to reign it back to 75 for the highlights to pop again by contrast to the base luminance
@@mythoti ok thx! Would you mind providing a new luminance level if an update "destroys" the setting again? Your settings really look good but I'm "scared" of future updates if you know what I mean. Sorry, I'm a real noob 😉
If on older firmware everyone use 100 instead on 75 and all eco settings off. In my 1211 update its amazing and auto update you can turn off turning clock to manual and unplug the tv so it does not have time att all. Ant thanks man those setting are great 😀
I can not install new firmware 1430.1_1020.3 after the 1430.1 to samsung qn90b from USB and online .From the forums, it seems that no one can do this after the 1430.1 update. It is the same issues evan to S95B .
Does anyone game in hdr with these settings? I’m worried about burn in. I only play for a couple of hours at a time but with these high brightness settings I still feel like it’s a concern. If anyone has had an issue with that please let me know.
Hi, excuse me, does exist a way on the hidden menu to enhance the SDR brightness?
I'd like to make brighter The 100% window on white 🤔
Thanks 🙌
Check the newest video on my channel for full luminance boost to 1500 nits and APL boosts in service menu ☺️
So is does it look as good as it did with original firmware or would u say better.. would u advise to leave original firmware if one could, or now update n go into service menu?
The original firmware definitely had a more robust color template, personally my preference would be 1304 colors with this brightness boost, I found them to be the most accurate while adding amazing pop, earlier was a little rougher edged but stronger in delivery, 1420 is probably the most accurate but also the most underwhelming
What's your game mode settings 🤔? These settings look kinda washed out for my taste I had to lower down the Gamma and shadow detail to 0, 0 I believe and it looks fantastic THANKS !! 👏 side note I just use this tv to game 🎮 on the xbox series X

Would you still recommend me buying the s95b with the 1420 update? Also how Is the motion for gaming and movies with this tv?
No, if you haven't purchased yet, I'd personally wait till this year's panels release, and I'd definitely suggest the Sony over the Samsung, even if you need to wait for price drops, but if you decide Samsung I'd still wait for the S95C, however I'd take how that picture looks right offhand with a grain of salt thanks to forced updates, thus Sony being my strongest recommendation
Motion was great, till the VRR crapped out on me 😔
@@mythoti i was thinking the same. Not getting the S95B and waiting for the S95C.. However, I have a feeling that prices for these QD-OLED’s will be a lot more in 2023 and I also have a feeling that Samsung will fuck consumers over by updating the Firmware for the S95C and doing the same thing they just did with the S95B… Therefore, I have my eyes on the S95B 65inch since it’s only $1,800.. I seriously have a feeling that even by January of 2024, the S95C will be at $2,800 - $2,500 after the price drop of I am assuming $4,000 - $3,500 for a 65inch S95C since everyone will want a QD-OLED TV…
@@Xstream718 I thought the same and rushed on the S95B, worst error of the year, I brought it back for the G2 which is way more pleasing. Random firmwares are just unacceptable, menu crashes several times per day, no DV, and you have to changes settings for the picture everytime your swap source otherwise it looks horrid. Now I just don't touch anything and it always appear good. I even lower luminosity to 40 when I watch movies anyway
Hi i have a question. Now My firm is 1304. Plc default liminance was 45. And then changed 75.
But i don know what different brightness.
I just want go back 1211 ver. Thats ery great. I miss 1211 firm. So need change 100? Not 75?
My galaxy phone is oled. Disney plus eternals hdr movie very good. But not my s95b 1304 ver. 1211 was very good
1304 is not good dark scene.
1304 is awesome, has the best color palette, you just need to bump your ana peak 2 brightness to 1023 and PLC Default Liminance to 70, check my newest video titled "make your S95B smoke an A95K" for details on boosting peak luminance in secret menu
@@mythoti oh thank u thank u. I will go to see ur new video
Can anyone help please. I cannot access the service menu on my s95b using this method as when I press mute, my tv turns on. I ha e also reset the TV but that didn't help either.
Must use smart things app, connect to tv using same wifi, while tv is on press "Mute,1,1,9, Enter" in smart things app from dial pad on bottom banner, third option to the right, the mute button on there with the tv already on should just mute the tv and continue the process, after the last button "Enter" if done correctly a hospital menu appears, then just press 1,2,3,4 and that should bring you to the general service menu where you can just use your physical remote
High PLC Default Luminance create the soap opera effect on movies , even with all the motion setings disabled ?Please, tell me, what values would be suitable for a good cinematic movement . I have an 65 inch Qn90b , and the firmware is 1430.1 , the same as S95b. With 1310.1 firmware everything was fine . Thanks.
In the Service Menu you find the point EPA. Here you set ANA Peak 1 and 2 to 1023. This restores the peak brightness of 1500 nits. Works like a charm and looks fantastic.
Disclaimer: like every change in the Service Menu everything at your own risk.
Seriously?! As soon as I get off work I'll run a series of tests, if this turns out accurate I'll make a new video with new settings to accommodate new brightness levels, can you please drop the navigational path for these? Option/QD2/PLC Default Liminance for example
@@mythoti
I had tried twice now to post the link with detailed instructions, it was always removed by YT. For whatever reason. But it's not difficult, first go to the service menu as described, then go to advanced and press the volume up on remote controll for a few seconds. Another menu appears. Select EPA (last point at the bottom). Now Look for two points called ANA Peak 1 and ANA Peak 2. They both have to be on 1023 (one is already 1023, the other is lower. Change that one to 1023 too). Thats it.
@@SamLombardo74 you beautiful bastard, just how did you figure that out? I'm dying to get home to try this!
@@mythoti
I think I found the instructions in the AVS Forums. Or AVForums. Anyway, it works great with FW 1310, but I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work with 1420 as well. Wish you success.
@@SamLombardo74 I hope this returns the colors that disappeared with the new update also, though there's a chance they monkeyed with some of the color settings separately in the update
Is there a service menu setting to disable future firmware updates? I dont want to have to keep re inputting the numbers everytime Samsung releases an update and it resets..
All you can do is either turn off auto-update or disconnect from the internet, I haven't had any forced since 1430, that's where I still sit, I just reject the updates when they occasionally pop up by backing out of the window when it pops up
@@mythoti oh I thought auto update off didn't work. Good to know it does now
@@mythoti 1602 may be worth it for you though look into the improvements. I added the service menu fixes to that firmware and plan to stay there
I physically can't seem to do it on my tv
Bro white bias lighting helps me with the 3d depth a lot with my c1. Do you know how I can do similar settings to what you have done with your samsung on my c1?
I'd hafta play with it to dial in the right effects, specifically with contrast and gamma combinations to see what hits your panel and it's capabilities in the right way to drive out the 3D impact I aim for
this cursed screen dimming: samsung should just make an option for turning it off if customers decide to forgoe their warranty...

Quick question on the xbox series X under hdr calibration what settings do you recommend?
Thank you brother
Hi. Thanks for the video. What’s about your clarity settings. Can you please share it with us?
All at 10, I like maxed out for buttery smooth, these settings grind out any gradience or artifacts that otherwise would be introduced, it's PQ crystal clear and motion fluid like mercury 👌
Wow. Lightning fast response. Thanks
@@JavierGarcia-xj7ki Np brother, been staying pretty engaged with everyone trying out new settings in case they have any questions ☺️
For me after the 1420 update motion has become pretty bad with clarity settings on auto or maximum for fast moving objects. Try running judder tests of 24/30 fps videos and see how fast-moving contrasty objects leave lots of artifacts around them. In 60fps its all good. And also when clarity is turned off but then there's a slight stutter for the whole picture.
wait everyone!!! at the end at 3 min 54!!!!! you can see the movie mode is in HDR mode!!!! normally you are not supposed to change those setting!!! all other online video say the same thing!!! you only modify sdr setting! you dont touch the HDR setting!! at 4min36 you can see the gamma is ST 2084 and you can't change it its not for nothing!!! you are not supposed to touch to the HDR setting.. it auto calibrate on the mode you use, Dynamic, standard, movie and i think it dont work in filmmaker no HDR filmmaker appear when viewing hdr content... and did you saw the max nits of those display on paper????? it do 1400 nits and it dont have heatsink like the sony A95k! so if the company lower it so we only have 75% its mean for! you reduce your tv life using it at 100%
like in cars!!!! you can go up to 200-240 km/h but you never go faster than 100-130 km/h... imagine your cars life always using it at 95-99% efficiency
How do I get this smart things app please and thank you
Just go to the play store and download it, then make sure your phone and TV are sharing the same wifi and connect them in the app, click remote banner on the bottom, then click the 123 option at the bottom to bring up dial pad, then press mute, 1, 1, 9, Enter, wait for Hospitality menu to load, then press 1, 2, 3, 4 and that will bring you to the primary service menu page
@@mythoti thank you my friend
Nice picture but one issue with "native" instead of auto colour space makes the people facea too orange or redish. Something need changed in this colour scheme push of the red colour beeing too much push on the screen. Some ideas?
Skin tones are showing natural for me, try maybe bringing the color down a hair, luminance colors like lighting around the onscreen character can heavily impact tones with saturation in some scenes but most scenes are resolving perfectly for me, I'd say play around with the white point to remove the pushes that you feel are too heavy, I push some tones slightly to boost the 3D impact while remaining as natural as I could get the panel to allow for, any less took away from the clean 3d effect I was looking to establish, all the colors have felt off since the update, this is the best I've managed for color accuracy with 3D impact, I'm sure I could come up with completely natural settings but the end result wouldn't be much different than an LG C2, I know that's what some people are looking for but I got a QD-OLED for the next level colors and punch it could provide, this is the best balance I've found so far, try watching a few different things with these settings, my strongest suggestion is Virtual Japan here on RUclips, amazing content to showcase just how natural the skin tones really are with super high graded HDR content pushed to it
@@mythoti The Colors are totally off. Worst picture settings ever. And has nothing to do with a natural Look. You made an High End TV looks like an Entry Level TV. ...
That screen optimization pop up. What does it do to the panel if you would have clicked OK?
For about 10 minutes it turns off the tv and I can only assume that it's running a pixel refresh program during that time, I usually cancel it out because it always pops up while I'm actively trying to use the tv
What's the point of going to the service menu and changing the Screen Saver Brightness from 7 to 0, if I can do the same thing just by changing Adjust Logo Brightness to Off in regular TV settings?
thats not the function of screen saver brightness in service menu
@@twgames4725 So what's the difference if changing adjust logo brightness to off stops ABSL from working on my TV?
Can this be used with ANAPEAK2? I was already afraid to raise it from 670 to 1023 because I game on my television a bit, so i only raised ANAPEAK to 799. Still a visible imporvement, but just hope this still wont lower the life of the tv.
where do you raise it, its in service menu too? if so which tab?
i have no advanced tab in my service menu, have they removed it in 14.30 firmware ? Anyone know how to fix this ??
Any chance you can upload your experience and link it here?

@@mythoti have you ever done a hard pixel refresh
Isn't it really risk to mess in the service menu
Yes sir, absolutely, nothing truly worthwhile comes without risks, I knew before I even started that there was a chance it could do more harm than good, however after dropping more than $1300 on this tv, then waking up one day to it sucking donkey balls, I found it was a risk worth taking, and it paid off in spades
@@mythoti Haha great way to put it. Thanks for the extremely fast response. I just bought my S95B and after 2hrs of tweaking I got it to look good. If you believe the risk is worth it then I will go for it. What really are the risks? I also have a 5 year warranty so would any of this void it?
@@mythoti I would also like this tv to last 5 years so I hope any of this wouldn't really shorten its lifespan. I heard that it has an estimated 1million hours life so maybe I don't have to worry about that.
@@OminousBlast if 100,000 hours can last LG WRGB OLEDs at least 4 years, 1 million should give plenty of wiggle room to bump brightness without cost to the 5 year window you seek to have 👌 yes, it was worth the risk to me, the imagery I stare at now completely annihilates anything I've ever seen in my life, I should have more info on the warranty later today, I have a Samsung tech scheduled to come fix my vrr, either he will, or he won't, there is a service log that displays all corrections to the service menu since factory release, including those prior to factory resets, however they don't have time stamps, so no way to indicate when they were applied, in my case I bought my S95B open box from BB, meaning it had prior owners, if I really have to I could take it back to them if I get denied by Samsung after they inspect the unit for selling me a tv with claims of a manufacturer warranty that wasn't present when required, in which case even past their 2 weeks they'd have no choice but to take the return, I'm hoping Samsung won't be dumb about it considering they're the ones that forced me to do all this to begin with by forcing the update that broke my tv, sh*t now it looks better than anything else on the market, even if these settings do break VRR I'd say the tradeoff for me is worth it, I'm 50% gamer, 50% video buff, if I can kick my video experience up by several fold at the expense of a fraction of the gaming experience I definitely say yes, worth it over and over again
@@mythoti Damn man I’m sure you’ll be fine man. There’s no way they can deny you warranty if anything happens. This TV seems amazing build wise but it gets really pushed down by the customer support/Samsung decision making. I’ll be waiting for your response here! I noticed the picture quality of my TV gets better the darker it is. Will it still benefit from a luminosity boost then? And I don’t game on it so I don’t mind sacrificing gaming features. Luminosity boost still the way to go for me?
Their a new update for north american users 1430 one of my S95B updated last night anybody notice anything different?
Would it make a difference if I put it from 48 to 60?
Hey, thanks for your interest in my settings, check the newest video in my channel for true boost, this video here was my earliest, least refined settings, the newest video has updated, completely refined settings for peak brightness boost in tandem with the base luminance boost you see here 😁
@@mythoti Can the base boost luminance setting be fine on its own without the other settings you talk about in this video? I've changed it from 48 to 75 but don't really see any difference.
@@Revolver1981 because this is simply the base luminance boost, it will give a brighter overall image, but the peak nits remains the same, check my newest video, shows how to access the secret hidden menu to increase peak luminance, it won't even look like the same tv by the time you are done, check it out and check out the comments that have anything to say about it 😁 just click on my icon and check my top video titled S95B Hyper-Reality Settings, it's only 5 minutes
you mean that the base brightness will be brighter?
Yes, this comes across exceptionally well for HDR content since much of the material is graded in colors that don't show well under lower luminance levels, boosting the base luminance value will draw out more solid impact in each individual object onscreen to make it appear more 3D, LG is using this technique with their 2023 lineup to try to keep up with QD-OLED, along with peak brightness boosts, the S95B gets a better benefit from this process though, since it's quantum dots' colors don't wash out at higher luminance levels like standard WRGB OLEDs on any LG

People like Mythoti, Holm Stadermann and J. Cochran are super heros of S95B universe on a mission against Samsung villains.
To sum up the boost tweak:
1. Change PLC Default Liminance to 75 or 70, Screen Saver Brightness to 0 and ANA Peak 2 to 1023.
2. Mythoti's settings:
Contrast 43
Sharpness 19
Color 46
Contrast Enhancer Low
Color Tone Warm 2
Gamma 1
Shadow Detail 5
2 Point WP Balance:
3

This is for HDR, right?
Any recommended settings for SDR?
Yes intended for HDR, SDR most these settings work well, good to bring the gamma down to 0 or -1 to balance slightly washed colors in SDR
you don`t show it. You only show settings
Check my newest video for step-by-step ☺️
I will try it with 1211 update
For you I'd say boost luminance to 100 instead of 75, the earlier updates were more capable of rendering at higher base luminance levels, with 1304 I had it at 100 and it was incredible, after update 1420 capped the panel I had to drop it to 75 to draw out the proper 3d effect since the specular highlights could no longer push beyond the base luminance in an effective manner with the cap, but no cap means higher brightness levels and a better picture for you, lucky mofo lol, have you kept it offline this entire time?
@@mythoti they really downgrade it that 2023 models would look good. I turn of auto timming 4 days ago and tv is supper bright. Lets se what is really capable 😀
@@mythoti auto trimming from 7 to 0 service menu
@@uusrikas the only downside is while the older updates are more capable, they also require more constant adjustments, I literally had to come up with entire lists of settings for different movies to make each one look good, was a pain in the neck but my OCD ass refuses to watch anything in less than pristine quality, that's the only true benefit behind the newest update, I don't have to change a thing where I have it now, everything seems to come together the way I intended with these same settings, one hell of a trade off, quality of life vs super boosted imagery is a toughie, but as long as I'm satisfied looking at my tv I can't complain too hard, other than to Samsung, mfs stole my choice
@@uusrikas not familiar with auto trimming, do you mean auto dimming?
Don't work
More 3D? Lol
This is a follow-up video to another one I made last month titled "Make The S95B 3D Again After 1420", the "more" in this title essentially marks this as the sequel, while remaining accurate to exactly what it says
I just love that you describe it as 3D. I had never heard HDR described that way but it is an accurate description.
@@unbanmekoil this is slightly different, closer akin to sterioscopic 3D by way of depth perception, only instead of throwing different tints at each eye for the effect it utilizes the infinite contrast and high peak luminance it has, the 90%+ bt 2020 HDR color gamut presentation this panel is capable of only amplifies the effect to something absolutely beautiful, but no it's not HDR I refer to, even my AMOLED phone is capable of producing this effect with regular SDR content, to such a degree people tap me on the shoulder on the bus frequently to ask me just how the hell it looks that way, it's all about contrast, peak brightness, and processing, HDR is just the icing on the cake 👌
@@mythoti which amoled display phone do you have,?
@@lewisevander OnePlus 8 Pro, had her for over 2 years and not a scratch on it ☺️
What happens if I set luminance to 100 ?
I had it set to 100 for 1304, I had to bring it down to 75 after 1420 because the brightness cap made it so the specular highlights could no longer push beyond the base luminance in an effective manner
@@mythoti oh okay that means 75 is the better option right
@@Km47. yeah, part of my problem after the update was it threw off my original boosted settings from 1304, took me a while to figure out that my boost of 100 was actually hurting update 1420 PQ by blowing out the picture in a way that darker colors were too bright and highlights didn't pop like they should, rolling it back to 75 kept the 3d impactful boost I was looking for while allowing for the darker colors to keep their integrity and the highlights to pop off the screen by contrast once again
@@mythoti Thanks the picture and in game mode now looks fantastic I leave it at 75 I like it
@@mythoti i have one more question i have on ps5 for hdr 16 clicks is that ok for the setting or should i go higher ?
