On LGs C7 panel it is possible through its service-menu.
Really enjoying when watching TV and a bright scene comes up and the TV dims. 

 

In the latest Home Cinema Choice there is a long-term test of the LG OLED65E7. Some of the problems noticed with this panel could be addressed when LG's new Alpha 9 video processor and their 2018 E8 series is introduced.

Does anyone know if or when these latest panels will be available in the Eclipse?

 

Villarsch (B&O enthusiast since the 1960s)

Spent some time with the Eclipse 55 with the wood panel (@B&O Copenhagen, Strøget). Not so sure about it compared to the alu cover anymore😁 The wood panel was a lot "richer" than expected, thicker and a lot more dominant compared to the BV14 wood (which I find both discrete and elegant). I guess the Eclipse with the wood panel will look great in the right environment, but it will perhaps not blend in as easily as the alu cover. Maybe existing owners should opt for a home trial before they commit? 

And the wood panels are delayed, anyway😎

Regarding new panels for the Eclipse: the planned swap is June, but as we all know it will depend heavily on them emptying the current stock in time.

Ah hence the current discount/trade-in deal of up to £1,800 off the eclipse.
Is said the same thing about the oak cover. I had it here for a few hours and i do like it but not as much as the alu cover. Specially with the stand the alu cover matches much better imo. On a wall mount it’s more a prefference thing, i posted some pics online at home https://www.instagram.com/p/Bgrk76TFu5M/

I find the lighting semi bad at dealers because it does show the product in the best light how ever nobody would ever have that sort of light at home so you don’t get a good representation.

I’d rather have a faster chip set to hopefully give the product longer life !

Any news regarding the Soundcenter and Dolby Vision over 25 HZ on the Apple TV 4K? Still doesn't work with 30 HZ or over.

I went to the local dealer last week about this very issue. I reminded them I had raised this almost 6 months ago when I purchased Apple TV 4K. I also mentioned that I cannot put my 4K ultra Hd Panasonic blu Ray player on its optimum settings as the picture played intermittently : snowstorm effect

They said it’s unfortunate but there’s nothing they can do other than wait for a solution.

They also mentioned most of their customers use the Eclipse with Sky Hd only and therefore issues regarding 30 hz playback are on the back burner.

How sad this so called premium package is such a lame duck with ill fitting dentures instead of teeth.

incredibly  disappointing after 6 months use.

Have not recommended this Tv to anybody whatsoever.

Hi Roger, how definite is that? B&O in Sydney haven't heard anything about that (but I guess they would say that, wouldn't they). AFAIK, the Eclipse is selling reasonably well so I would assume that stocks would deplete around that time.

Hard to believe that LG are still producing old screens for B&O - I imagine B&O swapped over to the new screens already, it's just a question of length of production time and current stock depletion, but that is my guess.
