Hey SS I tweeted at Playstation and Samsung this AM. Sony said to try changing the HDCP mode to 1.4, while Samsung said they are working on a firmware update.
Thank for the update, man. I will do that.

What settings do you have on the ps4 video output settings concerning resolution and RGB?
I got the KS9000 65' and been spending all my time just playing with the picture settings

That or the TV connecting to internet to do background stuff. Firmware checks...Installed my bias light the other night (recommend luminoodle as suggested in here, brighter, thinner, can easily make corners without cutting and using adaptors) and am really pleased with it.
Only problem is it randomly comes on during the night, goes off, then comes back on for around 5 minutes before going off again. Only noticed it whilst going to sleep so who knows if it does it throughout the night.
In my small bedroom with the TV at the end of the bed I thought I was being abducted by aliens or it was the second coming of Christ the first time it did it.
This happen to anyone else? Any suggestions? Thinking it may the PS4 in rest mode waking the TV (even though it stays off when the lights comes on) so will try shutting it fully down tonight.

Hey guys, try setting the PS4 resolution to YUV instead of auto. That's worked for me as a bandaid, can't tell you how sub-optimal it is but I certainly don't notice.Hey SS I tweeted at Playstation and Samsung this AM. Sony said to try changing the HDCP mode to 1.4, while Samsung said they are working on a firmware update.
Yes n' Yes.Couple questions about this tv, i have the 55":
Does HDR mode automatically activate when a ps4 game supports it? I have the hdmi port option enabled in the tvs settings.
If so, will HDR still automatically activate in dynamic viewing mode? I know that mode looks oversaturated and shitty to some ppl but im blind as a bat and need my colors to pop.
You can leave it on game mode. Movie mode has a variety of very subtle image-enhancing effects and you can tweak it to look significantly different from game mode, but if they look more or less the same to you, it's no big deal and you can just do whatever.So do I need to switch out of game mode for watching blurays on the ps4? Is there any difference in image quality?
The 55 inch is on sale at Best Buy for 1000 bucks. Seriously tempted to buy this set. Gaf what do I do?!! Think there is an open box for 889 as well...

I have the same luminoodle and I've seen it stay on after shutting it (the TV) off. Usually it does go off on its' own eventually but sometimes it seems delayed.
I also purchased this USB on/off switch just because I didn't always need/want the light to be on.
really close to pulling the trigger on this TV. Is it still THE best bang for the buck for 4k HDR gaming?
Is anyone disconnecting their ks8000 from the net and just using a tv box after issues with the OS have come to light over the last few days?

So is this still the best (affordable) 4K TV to get? How are those new Sonys (X900E)?
Returned the TV to Best Buy. Replacement will be delivered and setup on Monday. They offered me free setup instead of just free delivery so I said why not I'll wait till Monday and save myself the hassle. Will report back on Monday if all goes well.
Bought it.
Just turned it on and there is a solid line of dead pixels running the entire length of the TV on the vertical. Omfg.
Think I basically have the wife's blessing to proceed. Waiting on final confirmation.... gah!!
So you bought the open box one? That might explain why it was fucked up.
It's normal for bright whites on a pure black background to "glow" right?
Yeah I believe it's blooming. Doesn't really bother me other than worrying me that something may be wrong. I only see it on something like a game startup where the screen is pitch black and there's some white text or something contrasted against it.You mean like blooming? That's probably the fault of the TV being edge lit, and when using local dimming/Smart LED. Nothing I believe you can do to get around it, other than changing TVs to a full array one or getting an OLED. I like the Smart LED option though for better blacks and whites.

I picked up this TV last weekend, and I'm loving it but the weak local dimming is a bit of a bummer just because you can see a clear difference when there's an entire column where it isn't applied. Granted, I knew that would be the case going into it and it's still light years better than my Sony 802a (with flash lighting all over the place) from a few years ago, but it's the one small nag I have against it.

I have the 49" model of that TV. I can't fault it at all.Quick question is this model the ueks8000 model in Europe? http://www.vandenborre.be/lcd-led-tv/samsung-suhd-ue55ks8000?gclid=CKn6x63_ktMCFXMo0woddT4HBA
I plan on picking a new set up but i want to make sure i get the right one.
Rtings says KS8000 is hard to find now: http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/best/by-usage/hdr-gaming
Does that mean this series line will be discontinued soon?
They also reviewed the new MU8000 and it's not as good as the KS8000.
Normally the MU series of this year are like the KU and JU of previous years, not SUHD. We need a MS 8000 to be as good as the KS 8000. Sadly this won't happen and Samsung replaced this with Q7/8/9 this year.
Yup. And the Q7 has been reviewed by RTings and found to be extremely lacking. Especially for that ridiculous price.
I've said it before, KS8000 is the best non-OLED HDR TV for gaming. Althought it looks like the new 2017 Sony LED (I think X900e?) is also very good.

With cable TV I feel like it's both too dark and too bright at times. like I'm missing clarity in blacks while whites are too white. And while most scenes look fine, often I feel like people look washed out and pale.
