EDIT: I have worked all the issues out, hence changing the title of the thread. All info is on the first two pages.
Hi All,
I just picked up a Beovision 8 40 (MK1) with the idea of using it along with a sub as something to listen to the radio on which would be good enough music wise to replace amps and speakers. I thought if it beats a Play 5 Sonos that would be fine, and to be fair it does.
The sound on its own is pretty good, with a sub plugged in it has exceeded expectations. The fact I can watch Sky news on it too is a bonus. In fact I have really liked it so have my Apple TV plugged in and decided to add all my Netflix, Amazon, Plex etc.
So, here are my questions....
Is there away to adjust the aggressiveness of the back light?
The room it is in is pretty dark, dark grey walls, dark wood floor, and the image dims down too much.
I have turned off the ambient back light, and during the day it is fine, a little too bright, but fine. But obviously when it gets to evening it is too bright.
If I turn the light sensor back on the image is far too dark, maybe for my room, but it is too dark to the point where it changes the whole image, colours oversaturated, gamma curve changes etc.
So, just wondering if anyone found out how to make it less aggressive?
Next thing is 60hz and the Soap Opera effect.
When fed a 60hz signal the image is so processed. Game Mode doesn't help at all. Anything in the engineer menu we can adjust while being fed a 60hz signal to stop this?
Not the end of the world as I am in the UK so most content is 50hz based anyway, but annoying.
Any ideas?
