may need the firmware update or need to switch hdr on in tv
Hi Grant and Will,
Sounds feasible. If we take the TV controls first of all.
Ok, I'm into the advanced settings on the HDMI 1 input, which is what I use. There are two settings there that look relevant, which are:
HDR Mode. This is currently set at 'Auto'. The other options available are: 'HDR10', which makes the picture look really horrible, 'HLG', and 'Off'.
The other (what I suspect is relevant) setting is:
HDMI Video Range. This currently also set at 'Auto'. The other options available are: 'Full' and 'Limited'.
What, if anything, would you change there? :)
Marco.
...nothing!
One thought, what speed's your HDMI cable?
you could try a different hdmi port on both tv and bluray..
another option is to do a power recycle on all equipment after any firmware updates. switch all off and unplug. leave for 10 mins and restart.
No idea... It was a good one though (£30 worth), which came with the TV, and the box is long gone. So what to do? :hmm:
One other thought, if we go to the set-up section of the Blu-ray player, and into the Screen Settings...
The first available option is:
HDR Output. Description: Set whether to enable HDR output for video content. It is currently set on 'Auto'. The other option is 'Off'.
Then there is:
Output Video Resolution. Description: Set the HDMI resolution for the TV output. It is currently set on 'Auto'. The other options are:
'Original Resolution', '480i/576i', '480p/576p', '720p', '1080i', '1080p', and '4k'.
It is currently set on 'Auto'. Should it be set on 4K instead, or perhaps original resolution?
Marco.
leave them on auto
That's bizarre then, unless like Will says, the HDMI cable I'm using isn't 4K compatible.
Marco.
try what i said re unplugging or/and trying different sockets.
you can get cables that for no obvious reason just dont work with product a, but do on another
