I've resorted to turning DC off for hdr content and putting the gamma up to 3. In my mind the hdr looks the best it ever has, but I'll probably end up changing again in a few weeks! Only really tried this on Shadow of War on ps pro and Stranger things on Netflix.
My gamma is always below zero. Anything higher and blacks become greys.
Whats your gamma and DC set to?If the blacks look grey try turning the brightness down. Mine is on 42. Blacks look fine on mine.
Whats your gamma and DC set to?
Anyone elses KS reset source tags regularly?
Every 2nd or 3rd time I turn something on it resets the tag back to HDMI#, this also causes it to kick my PC out of PC mode.
I've never had this happen with my PC or PS4, only with my Nintendo Switch.
Does that work for both games and film?On hdr I have gamma 3 and DC off. For sdr I turn gamma back down to 0 and put DC on medium.
Does that work for both games and film?
The update is coming tomorrow according to AVS.
Is there any way to switch Gaming Mode on/off without going into the settings menu? It would be nice if there was some sort of shortcut. Makes using consoles for anything other than games sort of a pain.
What's some good settings for watching 4k on Netflix?
Do you know if its a world wide release?
Anyone know how to prevent my Xbox One X and my DVR from turning on automatically when switching inputs and turning the TV on?
I have Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) turned off and it's still happening. It doesn't happen with my PS4 Pro, PS3 or 360, just my DVR and Xbox One X.
I'm having the same issue with my one x, can't figure it out
Version 1209 available for North America according to this post over at AVSForum. Website not updated yet. Trying to download now but it's very slow. Not sure if this contains the game mode fix or not.
IT'S HAPPENING!!! (Maybe)
Download Complete
Updating Now
The game mode HDR problem is still there
The info button shows if you have HDR signal again (at least)
Nope. Still not working here either. The firmware update released today does not appear to have the game mode HDR fix.
One of the biggest companies in the world which can't fix a simple problem (at least for them) for more than a year.
This will be my last TV from Samsung. Going back to Sony's next time.
The 1208.2 just became available to me. Is it a good version?? Or should I wait for 1209??
According to the official thread on AVSforums 1209.171114 is already available to download from samsung download centre but does not include the game mode HDR fix :-(
My list isn't only limited to the HDR settings switching. Every firmware makes my Smart Control less responsive. HDMI Switching with PS4's Rest Mode is still not fixed, I have to switch to 'TV' otherwise the console turns on automatically.I've been lurking that AVSF thread and nothing against this Rudy1 person but yea it's disappointing that this new update posted today doesn't fix the HDR/game mode issue.
I purchased a KS9000 a year ago last Friday and I feel like perhaps I should have waited for this year's Sony X930e. Next TV will definitely be a Sony.
My TV is the KS7000 (Brazil version of KS8000), so the updates are only available like 1 month later. =(
The 1208.2 just became available today, but I would like to know if it is a good version. Because it looks like if has some issues like the HDR info.
Would like to know this as well. I'm still on 1201 and don't know if I should update to 1208 or not.

Most of apps available in Tizen are useless. I regret saying farewell to my old Android TV, Sony W809C.

I've put a few better pictures up. I'm going to try and replace the set, I don't think its within my tolerance given how much I paid (£1400). The whole experience is putting me off Samsung. The build quality just isnt there.

All that been said if this one is decent I'll have got the best value for money at the time... Just not really worth all this hassle.
Still no news on the fabled hdr game firmware. I hope its still coming.

Rudy1 said:HDR GAME MODE PATCH - STATUS UPDATE FOR DEPLOYMENT:
I just opened an email I received four hours ago from the head of the South Korea engineering team. He confirms that the patch for the 2016 models is ready to go; however, it has not yet been put on the network. He will advise me when they do so.
Please note that when OTN distribution begins it could take several weeks before all eligible TVs in the various global markets "see" the firmware and download it. Requests for a direct download have not been approved, but I expect that once the OTN distribution is well underway the patch will eventually be hosted on their websites.
Whats the consensus regarding Warm1 and Warm2? Id been using the latter up until 2 days ago, when I switched to Warm1 and realised just how yellow Warm2 is.
