Hi! I'm really sorry to bother you with my questions yet again, but in case you may clear this up for me, I'll be hugely grateful. Am I getting it right that LG C3 set to Game Optimizer picture mode has lower input latency at 60 Hz than most OLED monitors that have it in the 12-15 ms range, like MSI's MPG 271QRX and MPG 321URX for example? And with it disabled (but with PC Mode enabled still?) it's basically the same (+/-2 ms) as with those monitors? Also, do I get it right that the color luminance difference between WOLED and QD-OLED is irrelevant under SDR at least, since peak brighter in this mode is lower than (or rather just at) the point at which it would become unattainable for the former by mixing the primaries without help from white subpixels? Or may this aspect show itself with secondary (CMY) colors still? Thank you for your amazing work!
@tftcentral Күн бұрын
The C3 has a reasonably low input lag at 60Hz in Game Optimizer mode, and that's probably a reflection of it;s low overall refresh rate max (120Hz). Overall the lag on the C3 is very good for a TV we found. And for SDR applications, it's very likely that even the max SDR brightness could be achieved with an RGB additive approach, without needing to use the white pixel boost, that's likely only used for HDR and low APL % scenes. Although a QD-OLED screen could still look more colourful even in SDR thanks to the wider colour gamut, unless of course you're running an sRGB emulation for SDR.
@javierbedoya4965 9 ай бұрын
It's good to see that HDR curve of PQ EOTF Tracking is perfect by default. RTINGS says C3 was over-brightening most of the EOTF for HDR, when Expression Enhancer is OFF. They recommended the setting (Expression Enhancer: Detail).

It's not accurate, sunlight is like 5700K mid day, incandescent lights are like 3000K. the white subpixels are like 9000K or 10000K! Changing to warm 50 adds a little red subpixel to balance it out and make it accurate.

You could run through the windows 11 HDR calibration process but do it after you’ve configured the screen settings I would. Should be fairly simple process and no recommendations really for that. Some games will auto switch the screen to HDR mode but some will need you to enable HDR in windows too, but either way that will trigger the screen to move in to HDR mode, you won’t need to change anything on the tv as long as you have it set to the relevant preset mode

Much higher and the text looks thin and starts to disappear against the strong white background. However as its an OLED I use reverse or dark mode where ever possible so thats white text on a dark grey background and the 40 setting still looks good. its really quite personal and depends on what you are using it for TV, PC monitor etc. Just access the sharpness on the settings 'shortcut' (rather than the one buried in the menu) and use the pointer to adapt the slider on the hoof to your liking.

Am I supposed to manually open the tv settings and switch between the presets you showed in the video every single time? Is there any profile menu where I can save and handily load them at need? Or does the C3 automatically recognise whenever I load up a pc game to switch to the sdr gaming preset? Really confused here sorry

No it should handle the switching automatically in these situations. Make sure instant game response is enabled on the screen and then when it detects you’ve started a game it will auto switch to the “game” preset mode, from whatever you were using before (eg expert bright mode).

I use these HDR general settings for regular TV/movies/YT and the HDR gaming settings for my PS5 Slim. They seem perfect except for one thing. I changed the color temperature from warm 50 to 0 because I found it too yellowish. But I have two questions. I turned on AMD FreeSync Premium, will this improve the PS5 image? Also, I see this nowhere in any calibration video of the LG C3, the 4:4:4 Pass Through setting. It says it's meant for a HDMI coupled PC but when I turn it on or off on PS5 I see colors changing and maybe something with the sharpness but I'm not sure if its improving the image or not. What do you think about this setting? When I installed my recently bought PS5 Slim the LG C3 put the 4:4:4 Pass Through setting on by default for PS5 Slim.

I would leave FreeSync disabled for PS5 use as that will instead use HDMI-VRR for variable refresh rates.

Or you're basically stuck with panel's native performance if you want optimized latency? I'm concerned about the out-of-the-box EOTF tracking. It can be corrected with decent precision via the multipoint RGB/white balance in some other modes and it would have been great if that was possible in Game Optimizer image mode as well.

I've had the OLED42C3 for about 10 months. I use it as a PC monitor for 6-8 hours a day, for 5 days a week and have absolutely no signs of burn-in. I have never entered the service menu and I have not disabled the ASBL, TCP, GSR, or (automatic dimming) options either. I only have to configure the HDMI port as a PC and not as a TV, to access optimal configuration and be able to use it as a monitor. PC. And once I calibrated the brightness, contrast, gamma and other options within the menu with the control that came with the TV, the automatic dimming disappeared, because I have not seen any changes in the lighting when maximizing or minimizing the browser, nor have I when changing from dark or medium tones to light or bright. I have also had a 32" LG Ultrafine 32UL950-W IPS 4k native monitor for 3 years and although it is an excellent IPS monitor, I feel much better with this 42" OLEDC3. Greetings

Hi, I'm using a C3 as monitor for a week, it's great overall, I'm just getting blue tint effect on the borders due to the view angle I think, because when I move my head it changes. Is it normal? Anything I can do to avoid it? I feel white uniformity is pretty bad.

I'm at 90 in ISF Bright right now, and it's STILL substantially darker than my IPS monitor right next to it that's set at half brightness. If it was lower, any bias lighting in the room would overpower the monitor.

It’s more because you’re used to a cool colour temperature as that’s what usually comes out of the box in computer monitors. D65K is a standard that is used basically everywhere for mastering, so your colours will be inaccurate. If it doesn’t bother you though you can obviously use a cool setting.

Most of the settings depend on which preset you use, like expert bright mode vs one of the others. Expert bright will give you access to the most. I think you lose access to some by using the pc input mode label, but if there’s anything you wanted, use a different input label. Although note you will lose the 444 chroma support doing that

@@tftcentral Thanks. Thought so, that's what I did. Correct me if I am wrong. From what I understand, I need to switch HDR On and Off and select the appropriate calibrated mode (Expert or Game Optimizer) depending on the content I want to consume ? Just as an example, if I want to watch an HDR movie, I keep it On and use Cinema HDR mode and if want to switch to playing a game in SDR, I turn it Off and use Game Optimizer SDR mode ? Basically 4 calibrated modes, 2 each for SDR and HDR. And the need to switch to different modes depending on content. Am I right ?

@ZStrelok you can prob get away with just two modes, one for SDR and one for HDR. The screen will remember which one you were using between those two modes too so you won’t have to keep switching.
