Bare bones with IPS Panel. Calibration values:

I do not need SmartTV, just a good picture. The panel reflects light but does not disturb. No Clouding as direct LED. It boots fairly quickly, about 6 seconds. And only two seconds between channels. LG wrote to me, "The TV unit has an IPS panel." This remark is not to be found on the German side of LG. But the Austrian, Swiss, and french pages it is under "Features". I can confirm, can man up to 70 ° left, right, look up or down without changing the image. That can not do with an ordinary TN panel you. The black levels are excellent. Panasonic is building a well IPS panel, but several hundred Euros more.

After transmitter Order, I have calibrated the device with a i1DisplayPro colorimeter, blue filter, .mp4 files for brightness, contrast, and Farbsätigung of avsforum, and HCFR software. A simple adjustment is possible with audiovision_universaltestbild.jpg on a USB stick from Audio Vision in Germany. The website has a good guide for beginners. Now for the good stuff:

Picture Mode: Expert1
Lighting: 80
Contrast: 100
Brightness: 52
H Sharpness: 15
V Sharpness: 15
Color: 50
Tint: 0

Expert setting:
Dynamic Contrast: Off
Color gamut: Standard
Peaking: A
Expert Pattern: Off
Color Filter: Off
Color Temperature: Warm2
Gamma: 2.2
Method: 10 Point IRE (Here HCFR and the colorimeter is used)
IRE: 00 R: 0 G: 0 B: 0
IRE: 10 R: 2 G: 0 B: -8
IRE: 20 R: 5 R: 0 B: -1
IRE: 30 R: 5 G: 0 B: 3
IRE: 40 R: 8 G: 0 B: 3
IRE: R 50: 9 G: 0 B: 3
IRE: 60 R: 10 G: 0 B: 8
IRE: 70 R: 12 G: 0 B: 6
IRE: 80 R: 14 G: 0 B: 7
IRE: 90 R: 7 G: 0 B: 6
IRE: 100 R: 0 G: 0 B: 2

Picture Mode "Cinema" are close to my results.

A helpful tip: Before tuning, all transponders delete that are not needed. If you choose Austria as a location, five pages 18 transponders load times. A station search quickly finds over 1,000 channels. I have about 25 transponder loaded with information from the website of Astra. After all, undesired transmitters are not deleted. I look about 60 stations. Best write a list and renumber BeginEnd at 1.

Another tip: Firmware updates can come over Satellite. Suddenly you see the message "A software update is available. Do you wish to update?" Otherwise updates are on the LG website. Attention, on a USB stick or drive (formatted FAT32 or NTFS) to a directory LG_DTV make the .epk file in it.

A headphone output is not available. Solution for a few euros get a SCART adapter and connect wireless headphones.

Enjoy!
