I don't use CEC for those same reasons.

I don’t either. I swear I had it off. They snuck another setting in on me.

You both speak wisdom. I'm just so damned lazy. When it works right it's so cool. Chicks dig it when you just press one button and this cacophony of equipment powers on!





Okay, just kidding. I dig it.

Good catch Sam. If all goes as scheduled we'll have our first allocation of LG's 42" C2 the week of May 30th and likely sooner. Costco has all other retailers beat by one week.

 

[Sam Posten]

Where by our you mean mine?

LG's 42" C2 just arrived! We are now delivering Nationwide.

Sam,

Any updates about your 77" display? Are you happy with it?

Sam,

Any updates about your 77" display? Are you happy with it?

Yes. I’ve got it “good enough” calibrated based on settings from rtings and AVS and while I think I could get slightly higher specular highlights with a little work I love the way it looks as is. Highly recommended.

Hoping my 42c2 has shipped but no notice yet. I think I owe Robert a kidney so far

Also note the YouTube crew has found the HgIG hdr issue that had stumped me but I had not mentioned. I figured it was user error on my part so I just went back to HDR10 for gaming. Nope it’s actually bugged. More to follow

You've ^ got mail!

42C2 arrived and initial look as a pc monitor is encouraging. I’d rather a 27 or 32 but no headache like the 48 gave me. Thanks @Robert_Zohn

 

[Sam Posten]

It’s June. Where is the 97”??? I still remain dubious they will actually ship and not repeat the 42 fiasco from last year

 

[Robert_Zohn]

If all goes as scheduled we'll have LG's first 97" G2 Gallery Series TV on display in our showroom by the end of July.

I've been thinking about a 48" C1 or C2 for my kitchen nook wall. I normally sit at my kitchen table when I use a laptop, so I would be sitting 3 to 4 feet from the screen.

 

[Sam Posten]

At that distance 42

Using Classy’s config really shows how badly borked HGIG is on the 77” G2. I hope you have been beating LG with wet noodles to get them fixing this stat @Robert_Zohn

Fortunately just using the dynamic setting looks great and it really pulls out all the highlights I knew the set was capable of.

But man, the menu system to get to the important fixes is goddamn random.

I'm greatly enjoying my C1, and now that I have the service remote, I can disable TPC to keep it from dimming during lengthy dark scenes in movies (Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 4K made me wonder if I was losing my eyesight before I knew what the phenomenon was ). I sure hope at some point LG can do a firmware update to address the TV confusing long dark scenes for static images...because CTHD (and other movies like it) have long night fight scenes that have plenty of movement on the screen, but for some reason the dimming algorithm doesn't recognize the movement.

I am seeing this same problem with my C1 on The Batman and more recently Bridge on the River Kwai. Did disabling TPC do anything else? I may have to turn it off, too, but found out that I can use my Harmony Remote instead (Logitech included the In-Start button as an optional button to be programmed).
