I just wanna say thank you man. I've had my C3 for about a year and my TV hasn't ever looked this good. Exactly what I needed! Couldn't have done it without you
Gonna comment again! The colours look so real and natural plus HDR PoPs in Dolby vision. The movies so cinematic now. Feels like a top end Sony for processing now. Thanks again!!! Best settings for this TV by miles !!!!!
Thanks a lot. Just got the 77 inch G4 and I kept fiddling around with expert mode and others. This is finally something I can chill with. I tried so many websites and videos. You deserve to be at the nr1 spot. Much better than the one from ratings as well.
Really appreciate all you have done and continue to do for our TVs. Only things I do differently are 1. Enable AI Brightness for Dolby Vision (using Cinema Home) to take advantage of Dolby Vision IQ 2. Energy Saving Step > Auto (to avoid needing to change brightness levels from day to night) 3. Quick Start+ > Off (I use an external device for apps) 4. Quick Media Switching > Off (until LG removes that annoying pop-up)
You’re doing Gods work my friend! These settings look absolutely incredible on my c3!! Changing the video range to “limited” is the secret sauce. The picture retains soooo much more color with that setting. Thank you so much!
Fantastic video! Every single person who owns a 2023 LG Oled should watch this when setting up their new TV! I am getting my LG Evo G3 this Tuesday and i will be watching this video again when setting it up. Thank you very much for the professional tutorial, hope you achieve all the success you wish for with your channel. You absolutely deserve it 👏👏 Liked. Favorited and Subscribed without hesitation!
There’s a bug in filmmaker mode with the new update. Dynamic tone mapping doesn’t work, I’ve had to change to game mode and use dynamic tone mapping in there or use cinema l as they both work, but filmmaker mode dose not work. My tv lg c3 65 I can make a video to show you I’m not just saying this because I have tested and it’s not working sadly 😢 can you test this also please to make sure that it’s just not my TV as it’s only a week old and first OLED
It's also happening to me with my LG OLED G3 '77, when I put it in filmmaker mode the DTM doesn't work and it looks very very dark even if I put it at 4000 nits
Amazing settings dude!!! Thank you very much. Was looking for you for weeks.

Hello. I have a G3 but after I make all the same settings from ur video it feels like much more brown or should I say darker overall? Even on SDR is this the best sharp option? Feels brown or something like that
Yes, I have overall the same problem. Its the temp that makes the tv dirthy look, but its there anyways. Maybe it is a bad screen? Posted a question velow. Do you have a c3, size? Maybe it has to do with Primevideo, Netflix. You tube is better.
Personally I prefer 65-67 colour vibrancy, 95-100 contrast and warm/cold 0, I can't understand the industry, real life doesn't look like film maker mode
I had to turn the warmth down to about 30 instead of 50, and it looks better. My issue is the cool tones are perfect but the warm/whiter stuff is a little too warm/green. Still looks better than "standard" either way.
brother one question will lg oled g4 55inch give gud picture clearity of sd channels which is usually 480 p ,if not then what about 720p,?nd 1080p? as im going to buy g4 but our usage is ott+set up box. so im afraid if the tv doesnt show gud sd or hd channels then it will be problematic🙌🙌

Bro quick questions. All your settings are great but what settings do you use for standard TV in SDR and HDR. All the settings on your page are for movies so was wondering if you had alternate settings for standard TV channels.
@@techoptimized thanks! in your opinion, do you believe burn-in is possible with SDR /PC input at 85 pixel brightness and all protection features turned off when working daily on dark mode in in Windows on all productivity programs (browser, mail, word etc) or best is to drop the pixel brightness to 50 in that case?
Thanks for your explanation! Is there a way to save Profile Settings? I don't wanna change the settings everytime I switch from a SDR to a HDR movie. I know that LG saves settings for each HDMI source, but I haven't find a option to safe Profile Settings.
Thank you so much. Been puzzeling with the settings for 2 weeks now. Trying everthing as you do when you get new tech. I tried your settings on my new G3 and the only adjustment i made was the colour temp on warm 30; that just feels more natural to me personally Once again, thank you friend for your in depth explaination
I really don't understand why all, but all, choose Warm 50 level, as long as, this setup gives a general yellowish color. Sky is yellow, subtitle is yellow, snow is yellow, everything has a yellow nuance. These are the real colors of everything that surrounds us??? in yellowish? I look around me, I look outside, on street, in nature, but I don't see the things being such yellowish as they are on the Tv screen with this "Warm 50" setted.
You’re just used to cool monitors making white look blue. Hold a sheet of printer paper next to the screen on a 100% white screen. They should be the same color, the display should not be bluer than the sheet of paper Once you use warm 50 for a few days you won’t be able to go back. White is its own LED on LG WRGB displays. The blue pixel should not be activated at all, which it is if you don’t use warm 50.
I'm very skilled when it comes to calibrating the picture because I'm very passionate about it.....but I must say thank you because I didn't realize you could make a game mode out of any available picture preset and that is a game changer .....yes the input lag is gonna be increased a little bit but you're ending up with a much better picture quality than in the standard game mode picture preset.....thx again.....I actually did that on my Hisense tv since you can literally make a game mode out of any pictures preset but I didn't know you could do it on the LG g4

Just want to thank you for your very detailed settings. I have just purchased the Lgc4 and this was so helpful. I play alot of video games and lets just say the game optimizer settings were terrible. Im coming over from an lgc1 and my lgc1 looked way better and performed better than the c4. Until i found your video. For someone who has researched a lot of picture settings, yours kind sir is the best!!!!
Great settings recomendations. I just got a new C4 and set it up using all your recommendations. Besides using warm 35 as color temp, everything else worked very well. I hope you could do a new similar video for the 2024 LG OLED lineup.
Great video. Just bought a C4 65” and was wondering if the setting are perfect for it or do they have to be tweaked? Also, why is is necessary to apply noise filters in hdr or Dolby Vision?
Hello! I loved this video. Do you a similar guide as far as settings in the Nvidia Control Panel when connected to an LG OLED? I’m wanting to grab an LG C4 42 to use as a monitor.
Hello P40L0, I had another question. I am following the video guide and the written guide, but still am unsure, lol. Do I turn on the Game Optimizer settings also when I am in my PC? The setting that will have the Purple GUI that appears on the bottom of the LG C4? Or do I leave that alone?
Nice video! I have a C3 and for me DTM with game mode looks better instead with FMM. With FMM, the Suns are looking like a big orange ball without any transition. With DTM ON with game mode, the Suns are looking better with transitions. I would like to use FMM + DTM On but the suns in video games bother me. I used the latest settings from your Patreon page.
I have a C4 and used your settings for HDR gaming. It seems in FMM with your settings it’s darker than the standard Game Optimiser settings. Haven’t tried HGiG yet though.
@@cemsengul16 It's not actually necessary as I've already made a guide on how to use ColorControl here: www.patreon.com/posts/77041300 You can also use the video as a walktrhough to navigate settings/sections but then apply the updated settings in the description

@@cemsengul16 Yes, I'm using PC Mode/Icon + 4:4:4 Pass Through + VRR/G-Sync + FMM + HGIG on PC with my G3. Everything looks and plays great. Also yes, my Patreon includes PC HDR settings (which usually are the same as Consoles settings but sometimes they differ)

Just bought my LG C3 42" and was looking for some hints on calibration to use it as a monitor. In fact, I'm using it as the main monitor for a Mac Studio. Everybody thinks 120Hz is great for gaming, but it's great for the work environment too. Hope you will consider producing a new video specifically for that use. There are a couple of other videos about that on YT, but none of them is as clear and comprehensive as yours. There are hundreds of Mac/PC users interested in this and there's a big thread on Reddit so interest is there. Please help us :)
What input icon do I use for apple tv 4k? Also can I just use the WebOS movie settings for the apple tv? Also your table guide says to use 2.2 for Gamma for SDR content but in the video you say to use BT.1886. Which one is better?
@@techoptimized Thank you. Can you explain what you mean by the paper white brightness of 200 nits when doing hdr calibration for the consoles. On the series x, it only gives options for min TML, max TML and max FFTML. What does the white paper brightness correspond to?
Do you mean Nvidia Control Panel > Display > Desktop Color Depth - 32 bit, Output Color Depth - 12 bpc, Output color format - YCBcr444? and Output dynamic Range - Limited. Mine is YCbCr422. I can't change it to YCBcr444, no matter what I do it reverts back to YCBCr422. I'm using HDMI Cable 2.0 from tv to PC, my graphics card is 1660 ti and it supports displayport 1.4 or HDMI 2.0. Please guide which would be the best setting YCBcr422 or something else? Thanks! @@techoptimized
In the UK im finding people's faces too orange red no matter what settings used from standard to filmmaker. Is this something I can fix please .. like anything in fine tune ? It's odd as everything else colour wise to clarity is fantastic after using your guidance. Cheers. Superb video by the way
Great vid, just applied all settings to my c3. I did loose my game optimizer settings on the bottom center when I press the gear button. Don't know why.
So I followed this guide for my 48 Inch C3 + PS5, specifically for FF7 Rebirth, and the colors look a bit dull to me. I'm basing the color off of official PR images and they look more vibrant?
Hi man. Just got my 55 C3. Ive copied everything from your video and it looks stunning. I’ve seen you have an updated guide? I dont understand. Is there any few simple changes I should just change at this point to slightly improves it? Would appreciate a reply
Hi P40L0 - many thanks for making the video!! LG just released big firmware update 23.20.50 which also adds new features such as Chromecast etc. Is it still worth following the video or is it all too old now? I have C3
@@techoptimized Thank you sir! I printed off the settings chart. Just a suggestion, it might be an idea to split it up into 3 sections. The print is so tiny I have to get my magnifying glass out :)
@@techoptimized Thank you! One last question, I use an Amazon Firestick (4K) and not web OS. Is there anything on that stick that should be set or could be interfering with the TV picture?
Thanks for the video really easy to follow movies and my xbox know look fantastic on my LG c4, thanks for al the work that has gone into this. I noticed some very minor differences between the spreadsheet and the video , which one is the best to set . As an exmple for hdr movies in the video we use filmaker mode and a black level of 48 but in the sheet it says hdr cinema mode and black level of 49. I dont think I would notice any difference and all set same as video, but just curious if video or excel is most accurate. Video worked absolutly fine for me on c4 . apart for one or two setting that is greyed out and for life of me could not seem to work out what changes it ! I will run throught the video again !! I used an SD tv channel (playing some 80's progarmme !!) rather than an SD netflix title, as was unsure what programmes on netflix are sd, so maybe I should use an netflix one next time. Thanks for all the hard work.
Hi P40L0! Quick question...in your settings for HDR Filmmaker Gaming on the PS5, you say to turn OFF Real Cinema. But on my TV that setting is greyed out and is automatically set to ON. I can't change it. Am i doing something wrong?
FTDA changes are more "subtle", while each step you dial back for Black Level is greater. I would start with Black Level 48 with DTM in your case, and then dial back FTDA to your liking.
@@Phoenix-zm5gv It really depends on the game and personal preference. As a baseline with DTM (on 2019-2022 series), I would try with Black Level 49 and FTDA -10
@@techoptimized Oh thank you, didn't realise there were some updates! can you please let me know if dynamic tone mapping is best to be left on? I bought a Panasonic UB820 for 4k blurays and don't know if I should use the hdr optimiser or disable it on the player and let the tv do it? I'm starting to think the c3 is better at this than the hcx processor in the player?
I followed the video every minute and I have a C3, but somethings weren't making sense there's only one filmmaker mode and when I made changes to it for STR I then had to change it for HDR movies, so how do I have a specific picture mode for different types of continents like movies and games if I'm using the same mode for all of them and any changes, I make apply to that mode
im kinda confused. i followed the steps for both SDR and HDR under filmmaker but you said to apply to all inputs. How can I switch between the settings when i’m watching either hdr or sdr content?
Your TV will automatically switch and apply the SDR and HDR settings based on what your watching (SDR or HDR) hence is why you press "apply to all settings". If you have anymore questions please feel free to post again.
Thank you for this fantastic video! Do you have any resources about how to take the best care of the oled panel to avoid burn ins and other types of problems?
Hello, Great video! Can i use these settings also for a G4? Or will you be bringing out settings for it in the near future?

Fantastic, thank you for the reply! ❤
Hello P40L0, I had another question. I am following the video guide and the written guide, but still am unsure, lol. Do I turn on the Game Optimizer settings also when I am in my PC? The setting that will have the Purple GUI that appears on the bottom of the LG C4? Or do I leave that alone?
Are you sure the tv not going to have "burn in" effects if i switch off all the Oled care settings??
Yes
This is so helpful!!!!!!
Which setting scheme would you prefer for Geforce Now (native app on the TV) gaming?
Nice video!
I have a C3 and for me DTM with game mode looks better instead with FMM.
With FMM, the Suns are looking like a big orange ball without any transition.
With DTM ON with game mode, the Suns are looking better with transitions.
I would like to use FMM + DTM On but the suns in video games bother me.
I used the latest settings from your Patreon page.
I have a C4 and used your settings for HDR gaming. It seems in FMM with your settings it’s darker than the standard Game Optimiser settings. Haven’t tried HGiG yet though.
Thanks for the update in July 10, 2024.
I wonder if you could do an updated video with your new final settings and add a section for Colorcontrol HGIG on Filmmaker Mode?
@@cemsengul16 It's not actually necessary as I've already made a guide on how to use ColorControl here: www.patreon.com/posts/77041300
You can also use the video as a walktrhough to navigate settings/sections but then apply the updated settings in the description
@techoptimized Quick question. Do you use filmmaker mode hgig on PS5 and PC? My concern is the broken HDR implementation on a lot of games. Does your Patreon also have PC game hdr settings?
@@cemsengul16 Yes, I'm using PC Mode/Icon + 4:4:4 Pass Through + VRR/G-Sync + FMM + HGIG on PC with my G3. Everything looks and plays great.
Also yes, my Patreon includes PC HDR settings (which usually are the same as Consoles settings but sometimes they differ)
@@techoptimized I am so glad we have someone like you online. When I first purchased my G3 your Patreon was so much help for me. I used to play PS5 a lot and I used your individual game settings recommendations a lot.
Just bought an LG C4 55". Any suggestions for sports settings? This video is great!
7:50 For watching movies and TV shows. Should I select game Optimizer sound or not?
No, that's useful for games more as it's tital says, you can use other modes there but idk how they sound like because I use a soundbar
Thank you! This was super helpful. Any changes for the G4?
Read the description for latest settings ;)
Thank you for the video it is very helpful! What settings do you recommend for sports? I find that my games are still blurry and very grainy.
Me again I reset my tv and finely got you dolby vision to come up in the picture cinema setting. I think the was a ai setting running in the background before . Thanks darrell

brother one question will lg oled g4 55inch give gud picture clearity of sd channels which is usually 480 p ,if not then what about 720p,?nd 1080p? as im going to buy g4 but our usage is ott+set up box. so im afraid if the tv doesnt show gud sd or hd channels then it will be problematic🙌🙌 nd bro what are the settings for sdr channels in lg g4 55inch?🙌✋
Great video, thank you very much :) I just got the LG Oled Evo G4 and was wondering, if these settings also apply to that tv? I have it also connected to a Xbox Series X
Thank you for this great video!i have only one question how to separate different image preferences (sdr, dolby vision) for netflix, disney plus etc if all apps share the same input?when i change for example the settings for netflix and then i want to set up disney plus they share the same image settings
Hi, thanks for your guide :) What settings do you suggest to watch football? The Filmmaker mode is too faded and sport mode is too saturated.
Just bought my LG C3 42" and was looking for some hints on calibration to use it as a monitor. In fact, I'm using it as the main monitor for a Mac Studio. Everybody thinks 120Hz is great for gaming, but it's great for the work environment too. Hope you will consider producing a new video specifically for that use. There are a couple of other videos about that on YT, but none of them is as clear and comprehensive as yours. There are hundreds of Mac/PC users interested in this and there's a big thread on Reddit so interest is there. Please help us :)
Thank you so much!
So, what settings are best for watching regular satellite tv?
See the webOS columns in the latest chart linked in the description.
@@techoptimized 👍
@@techoptimized
What input icon do I use for apple tv 4k? Also can I just use the WebOS movie settings for the apple tv? Also your table guide says to use 2.2 for Gamma for SDR content but in the video you say to use BT.1886. Which one is better?
Use any icon other than PC and yes, use webOS settings for it. Latest and best settings are in the chart in the description, so 2.2
@@techoptimized Thank you. Can you explain what you mean by the paper white brightness of 200 nits when doing hdr calibration for the consoles. On the series x, it only gives options for min TML, max TML and max FFTML. What does the white paper brightness correspond to?
Thank you. But what about the settings using pc with C3 as a gaming monitor for both work and hdr gaming?
Same as Xbox, then set PC Control Panel to 4:4:4 chroma, Limited Color Space and 12-bit Color Depth.
Do you mean Nvidia Control Panel > Display >
Desktop Color Depth - 32 bit, Output Color Depth - 12 bpc, Output color format - YCBcr444? and Output dynamic Range - Limited.
Mine is YCbCr422. I can't change it to YCBcr444, no matter what I do it reverts back to YCBCr422.
I'm using HDMI Cable 2.0 from tv to PC, my graphics card is 1660 ti and it supports displayport 1.4 or HDMI 2.0.
Please guide which would be the best setting YCBcr422 or something else? Thanks! @@techoptimized
@@iamsurajsharma You're being limited by the HDMI 2.0 bandwidth so, yeah, you must stick with 4:2:2
In the UK im finding people's faces too orange red no matter what settings used from standard to filmmaker. Is this something I can fix please .. like anything in fine tune ? It's odd as everything else colour wise to clarity is fantastic after using your guidance. Cheers. Superb video by the way
Great vid, just applied all settings to my c3. I did loose my game optimizer settings on the bottom center when I press the gear button. Don't know why.
You've to also set Internal Speakers audio to "Game Optimizer" sound preset to preserve the game bar
Thank you 🙏
Wow. I've just bought a B4, can I apply these settings to it too?
What settings would you recommend for sports?
Thx a lot, first day had a lot off issues with my LG G3, willl change the setting according to your video, thx a lot
any problems mine will go back
So I followed this guide for my 48 Inch C3 + PS5, specifically for FF7 Rebirth, and the colors look a bit dull to me.
I'm basing the color off of official PR images and they look more vibrant?
I use game optimizer all the time.
Thanks I just got a 77in g3 I appreciate the settings will try them out

Hi man. Just got my 55 C3. Ive copied everything from your video and it looks stunning. I’ve seen you have an updated guide? I dont understand. Is there any few simple changes I should just change at this point to slightly improves it? Would appreciate a reply
I'm also wondering if I need to adjust something after those 1 year new firmware updates
Thank you for this video. Movies and shows look good but my ps5 looks dark now
Hi P40L0 - many thanks for making the video!!
LG just released big firmware update 23.20.50 which also adds new features such as Chromecast etc. Is it still worth following the video or is it all too old now? I have C3
@@bobjones3725 You can follow the video as a walkthrough but you can find updated settings in the chart linked in the description.
@@techoptimized Thank you sir! I printed off the settings chart. Just a suggestion, it might be an idea to split it up into 3 sections. The print is so tiny I have to get my magnifying glass out :)
@@bobjones3725 Click to see the full res version to clearly see even when zoomed
@@techoptimized Thank you! One last question, I use an Amazon Firestick (4K) and not web OS. Is there anything on that stick that should be set or could be interfering with the TV picture?
Thanks for the video really easy to follow movies and my xbox know look fantastic on my LG c4, thanks for al the work that has gone into this. I noticed some very minor differences between the spreadsheet and the video , which one is the best to set . As an exmple for hdr movies in the video we use filmaker mode and a black level of 48 but in the sheet it says hdr cinema mode and black level of 49. I dont think I would notice any difference and all set same as video, but just curious if video or excel is most accurate. Video worked absolutly fine for me on c4 . apart for one or two setting that is greyed out and for life of me could not seem to work out what changes it ! I will run throught the video again !! I used an SD tv channel (playing some 80's progarmme !!) rather than an SD netflix title, as was unsure what programmes on netflix are sd, so maybe I should use an netflix one next time. Thanks for all the hard work.
Great Vid Ty Paolo, hey if you're throwing the TV away at some point I'll have it

Hi P40L0! Quick question...in your settings for HDR Filmmaker Gaming on the PS5, you say to turn OFF Real Cinema. But on my TV that setting is greyed out and is automatically set to ON. I can't change it. Am i doing something wrong?
Same question.
If you cant change it, it is considered disabled
@gianniskarabesinis7580 wrong. I had to adjust some settings to turn it off
Ok i see. I have a similar problem with the option just scan. Mine is on auto and greyd out all the time. Do you hane any insight how to calibrate it?
P4OLO what is better, ftda -10 or setting black level to 48 ? Which one do you recommend for LG C2 when using DTM
FTDA changes are more "subtle", while each step you dial back for Black Level is greater. I would start with Black Level 48 with DTM in your case, and then dial back FTDA to your liking.
@@techoptimized To what specific number should i dial ftda P4OLO , because you are an expert so i want to hear your recommendation.😃
@@Phoenix-zm5gv It really depends on the game and personal preference. As a baseline with DTM (on 2019-2022 series), I would try with Black Level 49 and FTDA -10
@@techoptimized Thank you sir!🙏🏻
Last question man , should set limited range on my PS5 even if I don’t watch movies or if i only game it’s better to play on auto?
Always Limited with these TVs
This is amazing! Thank you
This video is awesome. Thank you. I’d say better than Rtings and others out there for the LG C3 this year in 2024!
For the latest settings (and their explaination) see the chart linked in the description
@@techoptimized Oh thank you, didn't realise there were some updates! can you please let me know if dynamic tone mapping is best to be left on? I bought a Panasonic UB820 for 4k blurays and don't know if I should use the hdr optimiser or disable it on the player and let the tv do it? I'm starting to think the c3 is better at this than the hcx processor in the player?
Using LG c2. Should I select filmmaker mode like in this video or ISF dark room as per spreadsheet? Many thanks
It's identical for SDR.

I followed the video every minute and I have a C3, but somethings weren't making sense there's only one filmmaker mode and when I made changes to it for STR I then had to change it for HDR movies, so how do I have a specific picture mode for different types of continents like movies and games if I'm using the same mode for all of them and any changes, I make apply to that mode
im kinda confused. i followed the steps for both SDR and HDR under filmmaker but you said to apply to all inputs. How can I switch between the settings when i’m watching either hdr or sdr content?
Your TV will automatically switch and apply the SDR and HDR settings based on what your watching (SDR or HDR) hence is why you press "apply to all settings". If you have anymore questions please feel free to post again.
Pc settings for sdr and hdr movies please and what settings for nvidia
Just got my 83” LG G3 , without MLA on the 83. I hope all this setting still work 😢
They will
Thank you for this fantastic video! Do you have any resources about how to take the best care of the oled panel to avoid burn ins and other types of problems?
These look great on my c3! But would these settings work for my c2 as well?
Best picture I have achieved on the G3 and the gaming settings produced excellent outcomes. Thankyou
Hello,
Great video! Can i use these settings also for a G4? Or will you be bringing out settings for it in the near future?
My G4 is way too dark with HDR and Dolby Vision and I still have no luck finding a good setting.
I have closed the curtains in the livingroom so it's very dark, and eventhough it helps a little, it's still so dark, that i miss a lot of details of what's going on in the movie. Any help greatly appreciated .... Thanks!
Yes you can use them but check the link in the description for the most updated settings
@@techoptimized Thank you so much for your fast reaction! i will check the description.... so i guess i have to follow the instructions of the updated document instead the video (if there is the newest info)?
@@Edward-bw7fp You can use the video as a guide but yeah, the settings in the chart are the most updated so the best ;)
