FYI mine was set to AUTO

Do you know what determines which mode it is in ?

My AUTO seems to always default to GAME MODE regardless of source and content ...

Game mode is always on. Helps a bit. Is there a film mode on a bv8-40? Where?

Thank you! Very interesseting. Looking very much forward to try that after the weekend.

Are there something like this on a bv11? My bv11 are always on monitor mode, but I think the picture is a bit unsharp.

Thank you, I think it worked to take off the film mode. I have tested it today. :)

Kind of ironic that the film mode makes the TV so much less film like isn't it?
