    Does anyone know of anyway to send a command to the PC whenever you press a certain button on the LG remote? What I'm trying to achieve: 1. Hold button 2 to run Emby shortcut. 2. TV run Emby and notify PC (this is the part I'm trying to figure out). 3. PC run script to pause Wallpaper Engine...

    Agree. I have CX 48 and use 100% scaling (Windows 10). I've used it for a lot of website browsing (and the occasional coding), and text are definitely fine. Nothing out of the ordinary compare to my previous IPS displays.

    Tbh, I just use the default HDR ingame settings. It already looks so good to me, so I don't wanna mess with it. It's the first game that made SDR looks crap to me after seeing its HDR. Can't really go back to Ori SDR after trying out Ori HDR. Horizon Zero Dawn, on the other hand, is kinda...

    I just finished "Ori and the Will of the Wisp" (PC) in 4K HDR. Holy shit. This game is an epic masterpiece. And it really showcases an OLED TV features. Blacks are true black and colors are so vibrant and pop out. Pretty much smooth gameplay with 100 to max fps throughout the game (with RTX 3080...

    For anyone here who uses the Cable Matters USB3-to-Ethernet adapter AND LG SmartShare app: For some reason, if I connect the TV through wifi or internal ethernet, the SmartShare app sees the LG CX as a Connected Player asap, but if I connect using the USB-to-Ethernet adapter, sometimes...

    I've played the 4K HDR movie using the USB HDD directly on PC fine with no stutters (via Plex). It only stutters with SmartShare. So it can't be the HDD. Also, I'm using 5900X + 3080, so my PC is plenty powerful. I'm still leaning toward a network lag causing the stutters. I'll find some free...

    If I'm not mistaken, the CX ethernet port is inferior to its wifi, according to the spec. Or did you use a USB to 1Gbps ethernet adapter?

    I tried LG Smart Share today. It played a 4K HDR movie connected from a USB HDD to my PC. There were a few network stutters, even though my PC is connected via LAN and my CX is connected via wireless. I thought it would have enough bandwidth, but I guess not.

    elvn Yes, I'm using RTX 3080 FE. Thanks. That was it. After hours of testing with MPC-HC+madVR, MPC-BE+madVR, Kodi (HDR version), I found the issue for me. The reason I'm getting "best guesses" and "BT.709" was because of an external filter I added to MPC-HC aka "ffdshow raw video filter". I...

    Thanks for the info. I do have RGB 10 bit full range in NVCP. And my Black Level is also set to Auto in the TV and Dynamic Tone Mapping OFF on both madVR and TV. It's just weird how the stat is staying "NV, 8bit, 4:2:0" under "D3D11 fullscreen windowed (10 bit)". As for the BT.709 thing, I'm not...

    So apparently, the non-fullscreen video colors, brightness, and contrast are not true HDR (sometimes I get a washed out version, sometimes I get a super vivid version lol). I tested this by playing the movie directly on the TV USB port and comparing it to PC mpcHC+madVR in fullscreen and got...

    I notice you have the same setup as me (though I also have SVP Pro, which I disable when watching HDR movies). Does your 4K HDR movies colors "pop" more when NOT fullscreen, but gets less intense and darker when in fullscreen? I don't mean washed out because it's not washed out for sure (I can...

    I meant the ULMB option in NVCP (the option includes Gsync, ULMB, or Fixed). But now that everyone mentions how it introduces more input lag, flicker, and lower brightness, I guess I'll stick with Gsync or Fixed for consistent 60fps capped games. One more question: Is the CX48's Freesync range...

    LG 48CX

    Is it a good idea to run ULMB for games that are ingame capped at 60fps? I mean, if you already run the game consistently at 60fps, then Gsync isn't really used, so wouldn't ULMB be better for this case? (Or is there a downside to using ULMB at 60fps?)

    b1gLoRD , hhkb , elvn Thanks. It wasn't any of those. I found out the problem. It was HWInfo being displayed on the secondary Acer monitor.

I set Gsync to be on for fullscreen and windowed, limit fps to 117 in NVCP, and Vsync to be based on ingame. When I tested a game (Genshin Impact) that's...

    Any changelog on fw 03.21.09 compare to previous version? I just had it popup to update today but I decided not to, since I haven't had any issue. (Though I don't have a 3080 yet, so I don't have VRR or raised gamma issues. lol)

    I used the ECHOGEAR Low Profile. I had to use a few extra washers I had laying around because the screws they provided were a bit too long for the CX48. But once it's on the wall, it looks gorgeous.

    If you have an RGB strip install into the TV's USB port, it can sorta tells you. If the lights stay on after you turn off the TV, that means it's running the pixel refresher.

    I'm really on the fence with this. Is this TV still worth it even with the unfixable VRR raised-gamma issue and Gsync issue (possibly fixable via firmware)? What's the general consensus?
