Hello,
I had purchases a uhd60 a couple weeks ago and sent it back due to poor black levels. I just got my uhd65 and i'm bummed because the black levels are still awful. Like worse than my 10 year old IPS computer monitor that was 150$ bad. At first the only way I could even get dark blacks was -8 to -12 brightness which totally crushed all the blacks.
But then I noticed something. The menu when changing settings is BLACK. Against the black background of my computer its much darker. I also noticed when I choose the sdr to hdr setting it also makes the blacks much darker. I feel like there is something holding back the black level since I know the projector is capable of producing darker blacks.
Is this possibly my source? I have tried the different modes and gamma setting on the UHD65 and none help. Im using the HDMI cable that came in the box. I've used my laptop and my pc and both are the same. I don't have a BR player but am planning on purchasing a PS4. My PC has a 980ti graphics card.
