I have EDGE LED, this greatly sucks. I should have done my research, but then again my t.v looks beautiful. I'll check out that guide thanks, but not sure about spending more money,

Nothing sucks about an edge lit LCD. both ways have there goods and there bads. The only difference LED gives you over a normal lcd is a truer black color. If you set the screen to black on an edge lit/normal lcd the screen still gives off some light. If you do it on a local dimming the screen gives off no light.

It takes about a month to truly get the best picture out of your tv. All your inputs will behave differently and you have to find the middle setting for it all to work. Only real high end tv models have independent settings per input. I would start by downloading a calibration dvd. it will get you 90-95% to a nice picture. then fine tune on the input you use the most.
no alot of people are mislead by the LED marketing and led to believe its an actual LED tv similar to the 11" OLED tv that sony has had out for a while thats lik 1000$


Oh how true. To bad the life span on OLED is not that great. What is it orange or blue that goes out like 5 years before the rest of it and the horrible burn in. LED tv's that most people buy are better on the buck electricity wise at least. and they do offer a better true black level.

That stupid sony xe-1 was like 2 grand when it first hit the stores. and its not even 1080p. it slike 576p or something. Samsung showcased a 40" OLED which no one will ever afford. OLED is just not meant for tv I dont think. It has its applications but not in a tv set.
if im not mistaken it was blue that they had problems with it only lasting like 240,000 hours, and dont think there was issues with burn in since OLED screens are used alot in smaller devices. Biggest issue with them was overcoming production issues

If I remember its something like all the colors dont last the same amount and each need more power to drive them. They are not all matched. So if one image sites on the screen. Some sort of burn in happens. I remember reading it supposed to be worse then the old CRT days.

"Only" 240,000 hours? 240000/24(per day) = 100,000 days / 365 (per year) = 273.xx years

Did I miss something here? Even at 24,000 it should be like 27 years....

Production issues sound more probable.
This is your home now. So take advantage of everything here, except me.

Blue oled has a lifespan of around 14,000 hours while others have around 60,000 for basic process. that is super low compared to everything else. They have made advancements to stretch it to almost 60 hours on blue

Contrast enhancement is "dynamic contrast".

The aspect ratio matter if you watch different tv channels or the tv get different input from different sources. Some tv shows use 4:3 and some 16:9. On a widescreen you get a "pillarbox" when displaying 4:3 correctly. Its a black line on each side of the picture.
With a pc youre software should take care of the aspect for you. If you set a resolution that the tv dont support, youll get no picture..

"Auto Motion Plus" is what youre samsungs "image smoothing" feature is called.
For the most accruate gaming picture its prolly best to turn off.
For tv shows and sports its prolly gives a less choppy picture. Good movies and series are allready smoothed and tampered with, so it prolly dont matter.

Samsung seem to have something called "Edge Enhancement". Try turning it off.
Sharpness enhances the edges of a picture. Less sharpness means "smoother" picture. High sharpness means sharp edges and "grainy" picture.

Backlight is like having a lightbulb where the dimmer is the backlight. Every screen have different amount of actual light it emits.


This tread actualy got me to start tampering with the contrast and brightness again. Less brightness actualy gives a better picture i think.. With C:75 B:62 i seem to get more colors..
I feel slightly obsessive :P

By the way, the calibration dvd..dont you need a calibration tool for that?

Edit: Misleading typo.

Then my aspect ratio is 16:9

So the less sharpness the better for the game? I think the sharpness sucks when it comes to the edges of each picture, but does it have any other uses?

I have no experience of knowledge on calibrating tools or software.

But like the other guy mentioned I'll prolly just get the DVD when I get time.
You think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted it.
I was born in it, built in it.
I didn't see the light until I was a man, by then, it was nothing but blinding.

Youre aspect ratio is 16:9 yes.

I didnt like sharpness for anything. Its ultimately up to you what kinda picture you want.

If you gonna get a calibration dvd you should just download it. Its kinda stupid that they dont ship the tvs with something like that if it need to be calibrated to get a nice picture.

They ship with bluray players now for some reasons. Least its better then nothing. They aren't in depth as the few i posted but get the job done.
