Get rid of "soap effect" on BV 8-40?

17 replies

How do I get rid of the terrible soap effect on Beovision 8-40? Game mode helps, but it still are there. Any other things you can do?

Does this mean you have fixed the system module problem 🀞🏽

hehe, no. Always when I am buy new technical stuff I got to try more things. Right now I considering to but another tv, if I can get rid of the soap effect and the masterlink does not work. :) 

The soap effect is called motionplus on Samsung tv.

I am not a hard. Ore gamer ... just some ATV4 apps like Lara Croft πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈ so the soap effect has never been an issue

The soap effect completely destroys a good picture. I cannot stand looking at the news or a film, where it looks like they are everybody dancing. I can completely reject a tv, if I cannot turn off the soap effect.

Seems that I missed something there.

Never noticed that on my previous 8-40.

But maybe that is just me ;-)

There is a tv - and there is a BV.

Nor me.

I have tried to adjust the GAME MODE but I can’t work out how to change the setting ... quite strange:

I guess hat the op is experiencing this on all sources and thought that the game mode could help.

I never used game mode on my 8-40.

Actually I think, that the picture is quite well.

I only replaced it to get a bigger and never (BSys4-based) tv....

....not because I disliked it.
