Television issues and firmware bugs and buyers guide for your next TV - Page 4

Same with recent LG Oleds (althogh they are far from perfect), we will see this year around april/jun.
Btw if you are not forced to buy a tv "now" and you don't want to throw money out of the window, it's always good idea to buy a prev year model e.g. 1 year later, not just because of the massive price difference but hopefully initial bugs are already fixed by then

so i guess time to avoid sony for real this time. and i guess it's time for me to join the users that get tortured by LG OLED processing.

wow now i really don't want a HDMI 2.1 GPU...

That's a bummer ... A Sony TV was on my wishlist for the next few months

I have my eye on the upcoming G1 now

Me on Panasonic

Klaus1189 · 13th January 2021, 12:15

But Panasonic can not do 4:4:4 and true native 24p at the same time according to @huhn. I was already on purchasing one, but that is a nogo for my usage. This was also the main intention of creating this thread. But perhaps Panasonic has changed things recently, I don‘t know.

rtings check 4:4:4 and also 24p native, but not both at the same time. At least I couldn‘t find it in any review of them.

no Vincent reported that this intentional issue is still present.
but with 120 HZ you may not need it. but well it Panasonic.
just look at sony what they are doing now...

Klaus1189 · 17th January 2021, 20:03

No VRR update for Sony TVs? Or did I miss another issue?

huhn · 17th January 2021, 22:03

the XH90 was planned to get it but it didn't yet and that's the only screen that has this planned for 2020 don't forget this Tv can't even do 1080p120 correctly which countless old TVs can.
the new ones are announced with it too.

they have removed this in some countries for the xh90 a short time and it's been over 6 months there is currently no reason to believe anything they say the 120 HZ is a obvious lie.
sony is currently in a terrible position claiming alot and delivering nearly zero promises.
the PS5 can do VRR yet the old XBOX can so can the new xbox both use pretty much the same hard.
the PS5 HDMI 2.1 is extremely limited it can't do RGB UHD 120 HZ it has to use 422 that's below displayport 1.4.

Klaus1189 · 17th January 2021, 22:23

Yes, it was the promised 120fps support, that is what I knew but forgot about.

What TV do you look forward? Perhaps the new LG OLEDs? Linus made a short video about "OLED V2", too:

For me it is really hard to choose, I must admit ...

huhn · 17th January 2021, 22:27

have to see. maybe i just get a cx because it at least doesn't downscale...
but i have to get this TV taken back some how and that's going to be some work because it is ~6 month old.

Klaus1189 · 17th January 2021, 22:28

Sony promised and didn‘t deliver. For me an easy case. Companies have to wake up.
