The relatively new Cinematic Motion mode of LG’s TruMotion processing, for instance, can be quite astute about taking away the roughest effects of TV (rather than cinema) judder without over-smoothing the picture or throwing up too many unwanted digital artefacts.Īnother option worth experimenting with if you find yourself finding judder jarring after turning motion processing off is to choose Custom in the TruMotion menus, and set the Blur and judder reduction elements to a setting of three or four each. Personally, though, while motion processing can indeed have a pretty unpleasant effect on picture quality in lots of ways, we’d argue there are motion processing options available on LG TVs that can help rather than hinder picture quality. Otherwise, the argument goes, you are no longer getting the natural 24 frames a second judder effect associated with a cinema experience, and instead you’re making films look like cheap soap operas. Many AV fans (and Hollywood luminaries) would argue all motion processing on LG’s TVs – or any TVs, come to that – should simply be turned off by default. Yet it’s one of the most widely ignored or misunderstood aspects of TV set up. The way different TVs handle motion, and the quality of their motion processing, can have a big impact on the viewing experience. It's worth choosing a different setting for watching sports than movies with your LG TV. This should happen automatically, but it's easy to double check on newer LG TVs especially, using the Game Optimizer menu. It’s also worth reminding gamers to ensure that their TV has switched into its Game mode when gaming if you want to take advantage of the fantastically low response times LG OLEDs are capable of. We should add to this section that we’d advise against using LG’s Vivid preset for really any viewing, as it pushes colour, contrast and brightness to such extremes that the picture can become distractingly unnatural. Personally we’d lean towards LG’s Cinema Home or Cinema modes over Filmmaker Mode, as they take into account a bit more the specific capabilities of each LG OLED screen – the picture is a little more optimised. Ideal for evening viewing when you've got the lights dimmed and the curtains shut.įilmmaker Mode looks pretty similar to Cinema, but is designed by the independent UHD Alliance to recreate the conditions the filmmakers the Alliance represents use when creating their footage.

The first of these is a good option for watching a film in a fairly bright room, as it tracks closer to movie industry video standards than the Standard mode, but pushes colour and luminance up a little to combat ambient light in the room you're in.Ĭinema is the preset LG has established to deliver a seriously accurate-looking image in a dark room, emulating what you would have seen if you were looking at the image as it was created in a mastering studio.
LG provides three options here: Cinema Home, Cinema and Filmmaker Mode.
If you want to watch a film or high-quality streamed TV show, though, you should definitely make the effort to switch to the most appropriate film-based preset. Usefully, LG tries to help with this by creating different presets with names that reflect both the content they’re best suited to, and the current environment the TV is being watched in.įor regular daytime TV viewing, together with sports, the Standard preset that LG’s TVs default to is generally the best option. While this is great new in most ways, though, it does expose the fact that for all the cleverness of the latest video processing systems you get with LG’s latest OLED TVs, optimising an LG OLED’s performance means taking the time to choose appropriate picture presets for different types of content. We’ve never had it so good when it comes to both the range of sources our TVs have access to, and the variety of content available across all those sources.
