    I bought a 2022 TCL 75C735 last week & had been frustrated with the amount of artifacts in high motion content. All my previous TVs have been Plasma so I wasn't familiar with the settings available with this QLED TV. I was at my whit's end in regard to removing/reducing the motion artifacts. Thankfully I discovered this video and now my problem has been resolved, the culprit the Motion Judder setting. It was turned up to maximum (10), reducing it to three solved my problem while still retaining a small amount of Judder reduction for screen panning, etc. Thanks.

    Thanks for the video! Do you have any info for the settings when watching things in Dolby vision? I tried your advice of turning on Dolby Dark which made my picture look more washed out. However on Dolby IQ I lose the option to turn off motion blur which gives Dolby vision movies that soap opera effect. Do you have any advice for picture settings in Dolby dark mode?

    Hi Darco, great video. I'm having a problem when watching movies on disc. If a scene fades to black or goes to complete darkness the screen like switches off and comes back on when the bright comes back in the scene. It doesn't happen on streaming, only on discs on various machines and tried different HDMI cables too. So it's not the players, or cables. Have you any idea what this is or / and how to fix it ? Many thanks, Ed

    Hi Darko, I´ve bought a TCL X925 75". At the store they had an option to calibrate the tv before delivery (small fee compare to the price of the tv) but the salesrep convinced me not to add this option, since a "real" calibration can only be made in my house with professionals coming and measuring "light" and sizes of the environment. Now I´m trying to find a calibration guide for the TV, but can´t find anything specific for my x925 which is user friendly. what is your professional opinion, how can I get the most out of my tv? all the best! (ps right now I´ve used the tips that you guide us through for the C-series. but i presume that it´s maybe not the best options for my tv?

    • @TVguyDarko
      @TVguyDarko  2 роки тому

      Hello Farzad! The sales rep. was right and definitely for the TV of this class (and size) a true calibration at your place is recommended for the optimal performance. In addition to that, seeing the calibration process and understanding why is something done is another important aspect of the process, though this depends on the calibrator and how much he is willing to explain and with which level of complexity. You can always do some basic adjustments yourself, like selecting recommended picture mode which is closest to the calibrated state and if the menus and options look similar to those in this video, you can use it until you get the TV calibrated. You can search for certified ISF calibrators here: imagingscience.com/dealers/

    Hey Darko
    Recently I've bought TCL 55C728 and also found your review and tips very helpfull. But regardless to that I have some questions and issues to resolve...
    1. Since I own X-Rite i1Display Pro and using Displaycal and Calman for calibrating my monitors I've noticed only in your video that you have DDC service option in Expert Calibration settings. I've done all the browsing through the manuals and menu settings but nothing. Also I've updated TVs Android OS to latest version but still not showing? Can you help me and tell me what am I doing wrong?
    2. I bought this TV for casual gaming also to pair it with my new Xbox Series S console. Im using original cables, correct HDMI inputs and Advanced standard is set to ON but anyways I get blank screens for a brief moment between loading scenes for example theres no backlight turned on for a brief moment if picture is not showing it act like its just completly off. And also with some games that use HDR10 or DolbyVision for gaming colors are completly off but not like washed out but rather completly faulty like theres filter overlaying the image or appearing like there is a filter overlay on the screen that completly destroys color gamut, gamma and contrast - I've checked the settings and everything is defaulted. When watching movies/shows in HDR10 or DolbyVision everything works just fine
    3. from time to time, when TV is idle or when I'm watching series or movies Google Assistant / Voice control is turning on randomly. Theres some days when its not happening but theres days when its randomly showing up/turning on couple of times trough the using
    For all of the questions - I've factory reseted the TV and updated again - no luck. TV is old maybe 2 weeks now. Is this factory problem and should I contact TCL service for this issues and ask for replacement?
    Thanks in advance!

  • @4eyeT
    @4eyeT 2 роки тому +6

    Hey Darko, very dumb question but I followed these settings as close as possible for the C725 (settings slightly different) but I kept brightness/contrast at default 100 - unsurprisingly I'm getting really bad eye strain from the bright whites but all other colours look perfect.
    In your view, what settings should I tweak to reduce the brightness of the "white" without compromising overall colour?

    • @TVguyDarko
      @TVguyDarko  2 роки тому +1

      Hey T! You need to reduce Brightness option to reduce the overall luminance of the screen. Alternatively, consider bias lighting like the one I use in my setup - ua-cam.com/video/03zdX0z7Yy8/v-deo.html

      @@TVguyDarko I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t make a note of the settings because I changed them again. Sometimes the picture is OK, and at other times it seems too dark, a lot depends on what I’m watching. I’ve tried adjusting as I go, but I’m still not happy with the result. My previous set, which is now in another room, is a Samsung 55 inch 7 series, which has a great picture, but does not have the features of the TCL. Unfortunately, Samsungs have a long wait time as they are hard to get, which is why I went for the TCL. I’m sure I will get it right eventually, but it’s a bit frustrating, plus my 84 year old brain doesn’t work as well as it used to😁

    • @TVguyDarko

      Hi Francesco, thanks for the purchase! It is normal for picture to appear like that when you start using Warm setting, just give it some time. ua-cam.com/video/-JEFu2M2tt8/v-deo.html
      In addition, if you've used white balance values from the document and colors do not look correct, just reset white balance values to default (0). Anyway this can be only correctly adjusted by performing the calibration on your unit.

    Hi Darko,
    Excellent review 👍🏻! In comparaison with the C715 series did you notice some improvements in:
    1- upscaling of non 4K content (major TCL issue in the past 🙁).
    2- overall picture quality, especially brightness.
    Thanks a lot.

    • @TVguyDarko

      Hey Sami - I haven’t tested the C715, but from what I’ve seen in the past upscaling has improved. In regards to brightness, it is not great like on Hisense U7QF which is also a midrange TV, but it is more similar to what other manufacturers are offerening in this class.
