    Are there guides for setting up the DNS? What's a recommended one?

    You could try the settings I use if you like. I got the color temps from a video I linked to earlier in the thread.

    Picture mode: Cinema
    Brightness: 46
    Contrast: 48
    Saturation: 50
    Backlight: 50
    Dynamic Backlight: Off
    Tint: 0
    Sharpness: 5
    Adaptive contrast: Off/Middle, whatever!
    Color temp: Warm
    Noise reduction: Off.

    Color tuner:
    Red 0, 0, -4. Green 0,-1,9. Blue-4,-2,6.
    Yellow 1,-2,1. Cyan -1,-1,1. Magenta -1,-2,0.

    Everything else left to default.
    If you hook your TV up to a PC make sure to calibrate the Gama settings in windows.

    Excellent, thanks. This is for the 40inch model?

    Getflix is another option - there's a big thread in this forum (can't link as on phone), and instructions are given in the latter pages..

    I got it from a video for one of the larger sets, but to my eye it works. I couldn't find anything specifically for the 40". These settings looks more natural to me than standard, particularly when I watch the bright 4k demo content on Youtube.

    The remote is great for the PS4 if watching DVD/Blu ray no need to use the PS4 controller

    Strange prices on Amazon. 50 inch is cheaper than 49?

    Dont think so, the 50" is the same price. It's a bit strange.

    I bought mine in December for 379 and the 49 was 384. Price seem to change almost randomly

    Ah, just clicked some of the different sizes. They've different sellers, so guess the 49" sold out for that seller.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 849 ✭✭✭ricimaki


    49 Inch is back at £369, but won't be in stock until Tuesday 24th.

    You need to change your location on the TV settings to UK, but you also need a DNS service.
    It's described earlier in this thread, and there's a link to another thread about Getflix, which explains how to set that up - you can sign up for a 2 week trial, and if you like it, can get a lifelime Getflix subscription for 30 odd quid.

    Without having to read through 42 pages. Are there any impartial reviews of this range.
    I've the 49" in the basket ready to pull the trigger but need final push

    I use my 43" daily as a PC monitor and for Plex on my Nvidia shield. I also own an Epson 1080p projector which cost me twice as much, but today was the first time I turned it on in over a month because the TV is so damn good.


  • Posts: 8,756 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yeah I'm gonna have the PC hooked up to it too (no smart TV can match that)

    Do you do any PC gaming on it ? What graphics card do you have??

    I have a 970. I play non-FPS games on it mostly. The input lag when in game mode is around 80ms, but it is perfectly fine for things like F1, FM and Euro Truck.

    I play csgo windowed and it's fine for me (can't get used to it at 43"). I just solo q or play for fun wih my friends. It wouldn't work for the hardcore gamers though.

    If anyone is using it as a monitor and not running W10, install a free program called 'aquasnap'. It helps.

    How would it do under a 1070 I wonder.I imagine it would be total overkill against the TV


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,636 ✭✭✭the.red.baron


    Anyone get the sky q remote working with this? I have looked around on the net but any suggested codees don't work, its the 50 inch model if that makes any difference

    tah

    Why wouldn't you let Amazon deliver it for free?

    I am about to pull the trigger however: would Anpost actually deliver a 50'' tv to my address? Sorry for asking something that seem obvious, but I had bad experience in the past

    Also I see it has a satellite tuner, would anybody knows if it supports Diseq
