Important News & Announcements

First of all I would like to Thank You for your continuous and vital support on this project over the years.

I started sharing calibrated settings of my old LG 2017 B7 OLED to help others on both Reddit and ResetEra but over the years a non-stop conversation with both communities along with my growing passion for those TVs and HDR gaming in general led me to personally analyze and provide Optimized Settings also for over 350+ HDR games (bought & tested one by one)

Not only that, but thanks to your precious support I was also able to buy all current gen consoles and a brand new PC so to expand my testing & optimizations to PC Gaming and other Software & Hardware/Accessories as well.

For this reason, I've better organized all contents of this Patreon in dedicated Collections you can find (always updated) here :


Another important change, following your feedback, is that from now on you can also choose to Buy single Posts forever, if you prefer.

For example if you want to access specific HDR games' settings only (including all updates I can make for them in the future, e.g. after games' updates which may alter HDR rendition and/or adding extra suggestions for them) you can buy those post individually and they'll remain accessible to you, forever.

The price will always be of around 3.50$ for each (which is the lowest price Patreon allows me to set)

Considering I will regularly keep adding new Games' and PC/Hardware/Software settings, becoming a regular Member remains more convenient on the long run, but I know many followers may still prefer having this option included as well.

Stay tuned for new settings

Even if many years already passed since I started all of this, I still feel like this is only the beginning.

LG OLEDs (and other TVs) settings will still continue to improve whenever needed, new accessories and consoles are on the horizon (PS5 Pro, Switch 2 and future Xbox-es rumored in 2027 and beyond) and many more HDR games to test are already on my list.


So, Thank You again for your renewed support!

Nothing of this would be possible without it.

Cheers and Enjoy!

Is it possible that you can release an HDR guide for the game: Where Winds Meet?

Any plans to do a Minecraft: Java Edition optimised guide? There's a HDR mod on the RenoDX discord that might be worth checking out, it relies on SpecialK for now. With mods like sodium and Iris as well you can adjust CPU-render ahead limit to get a LLM/Reflex like experience natively. Also recently saw this mod showcase which looks amazing https://youtu.be/C1fpUZ4o2Jc?si=78y4WHq-x9U6qwcl

Could you make a guide on optimizing the Steam Deck? I think you would do the best job out of everyone online! Thank you!

Hi Paolo, love the great work! I’m not sure where to ask this, but how soon after launch will you be able to start covering the Switch 2, since it will now have HDR support? Thanks!

Hi! I'm aready (partially) covering Switch 2 recommendations in the latest LG OLEDs charts as it seems very similar to PS4/PS4 Pro capabilities HDR wise so suggestions will be really similar. If something will be unique after launch I will cover that too ;)

Elmicha · April 10, 2025

Are your HDR recommendations also applicable to monitors? More specifically, to mini LED monitors with DisplayHDR 1400?

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · April 10, 2025

Yes, there is the bottom section of each game recommending what to set for other TVs/Monitors other than LG

Hoping for some kingdom come deliverance 2 settings soon 🙏

It's SDR only for now :( So just use AutoHDR or RTX HDR on PC

Ownsin · December 10, 2024

Apologies, but I have another question. https://i.imgur.com/5r6PFKK.png In the screenshot which output color format should I select for my LG C2 in PC mode? And should the color depth be 10bit or 12bit? Thank you.

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · December 10, 2024

4:4:4 Limited @ 10-bit Then on the TV use PC Mode/Icon and also enable 4:4:4 Pass Through at the same time and use my latest settings

https://github.com/Animesh-Does-Code/win11hdr-srgb-to-gamma2.2-ahk Is this needed for my LG C2 PC setup?

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · December 2, 2024

No, as you will mess up native HDR this way. Stick with my PC Guide.

William Z · November 15, 2024

The Nvidia app is now out of beta and has officially replaced Geforce Experience. I noticed that the RTX HDR setting now defaults to 1,000 nits peak brightness but the slider goes up to 1,500. Middle greys are 50, contrast 0, and Saturation 0. Can you advice me whether to keep this at default or adjust for my LG G4? Thank you

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · November 15, 2024

For G3/G4 settings recommendations didn't change, which you can still find here: https://www.resetera.com/threads/lg-2017-2024-oleds-optimized-settings-for-xbox-one-series-x-s-ps4-ps5-switch-pc-and-webos-movies-sdr-hdr-dv.73304/post-119780799

Will you be able to review the HDR on the Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster?

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · November 5, 2024

Yes, I've already updated it here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/63787156

Hi, will you be covering the HDR on the Monster Hunter: Wilds Beta?

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · November 1, 2024

I'll see if I can next week

It`s true that the new update (webos24), brings a 300nits amount on G3? i see lot a youtubers that talk about it, that add a boost brightnnes for gaming or is fake news ?

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · October 29, 2024

It's fake. Game Optimizer is mostly the same (with also Dynamic Color Boosting still disabled there), while it's Filmmaker Mode on G3 that received a +100-150 nits boost on average, making it basically on par of G4 luminance wise now.

Hey, have you stopped doing updates to the settings for the LG C2 Oleds? Your spreadsheet is all about the 2023-2024 Oleds and nothing before.

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · October 22, 2024

No, you can also find the recently updated chart for 2019-2022 OLEDs here: https://i.imgur.com/8XcbDjU.png

Kotaku Otaku · October 16, 2024

WebOS 24 is now available for LG C3. Is it worthwhile to update the OS, or will it ruin calibrations?

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · October 16, 2024

It's worth it and you don't need to change settings after. You can read more here: https://www.avsforum.com/posts/63577377/

Hi. Good morning! What’s the best brightness level for sparkling zero on ps5 with oled g3 tv

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · October 9, 2024

Colors seem ruined with HDR, so I think it's broken right now. Stick with SDR until they patch it

Kevin Landry · September 14, 2024

We're all proud of you and appreciate your efforts. One question thku8, where's Space Marine 2?🧐😳

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · September 14, 2024

Unfortunately Space Marine 2 is only SDR... So if you play it on PC just use RTX HDR.

Larry Wesby · August 25, 2024

What image calibration number to put it on wukong from a oled lg g3 oled (ps5)

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · August 25, 2024

It's SDR only so leave it at default or lower it a bit (around 25-30) if you want a bit more contrast.

Victor Luong · August 22, 2024

Dude, I can't wait! I've appreciated the minutiae of your HDR work about two years and I want to keep up my support! It's helped me extract more from my consoles and my LG B9 OLED

lcs M · August 20, 2024

Thanks for your work ! Also hope your settings on black myth wukong coming soon, not having a HDR in a game like this in 2024 is straight criminal…

P
P40L0 | Technology: Optimized · August 20, 2024

Yeah, Wukong is a visual showcase but without native HDR it loses a lot... From what I've seen so far it's best to leave it at its default SDR Brightness and just use RTX HDR on PC, but I still hope native HDR will be added at some point in the future
