**Official "Better Nate Than Lever" Week 16 NFL Thread**

[Ackmed]

My Samsung curved 4K has plenty of indepth options for picture. Really isn't much on this LG. No fine tune adjustments. Some for 3D, dual play, aspect, etc. Nothing to adjust details.

That's on "game" mode. Looks better than vivid or sports. HDR didn't look bad either. Vivid was way too bright and washed out. I usually just forget to change it to be honest. Ok, done posting pics.

Game over now, missed FG and then another TD. Was hoping for a better 4th. Maybe the Giants will play the Cowboys again, be huge ratings.

^it's way off topic for this, but you want to ignore those "game" "Sports" movie" modes or whatever. You need to go to the manual "Brightness," "color," "tint" contrast bars or whatever.

First thing first: make sure brightness is somewhere below 50% (usually needs to be in the ~30% range to look right; depends on the screen, though) because if you just took that thing out of the box and plopped it on your stand, it is set to Torch mode by default--looks "good" in a B&M store but terrible at home.

Go to AVS forums and find the thread for your TV model(s) and play around with the generic settings that those users have figured out (the non-$300 pro calibration services that some people use--but the ones that users have tested using the simple menu options). Saves a lot of hassle on your end, and those nerds take this stuff seriously.
