LG C1 & C2 Have Had This Annoying PS5 Issue Fixed... by Sony!

LG C1 & C2 owners rejoice! The latest Sony PS5 system update of 05.22-05.50 has added an ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) toggle which will allow users to switch off ALLM from the console, so that black frame insertion (BFI) and other picture settings can be enabled on the television to improve your gameplay experience.

[@zakwojnar4714]

I just upgraded to the LGC1 and I love it. The colors are so bold and black scenes are far more legible than they were on my old LCD. I still have to play around with the game optimizer settings, but I’m already very happy with my purchase.

[@zakwojnar4714]

My previous TV is a TCL mini LED, by the way, and has a new home at my friend Claire’s house: she was in dire need of an upgrade and doesn’t play video games, so she’s thrilled!

[@darrenholmes8656]

I’ll make this easy for everyone, turn off ALLM on the Ps5, input lag needs to be standard not boost in game optimiser, Input needs to be console not set to pc mode, you will then be able to use all settings including all motion options, Vincent please add a clipping stating that this does not work with input lag set to boost and pc mode as your previous Ps5 settings video tells us to do this.

[@wolfmanjack530]

Thank You for this!! Your instructions was the only one that worked for me. Yeah Vincent needs to be clear about this especially when his other video tells you to do the opposite..🤔🤔

[@UptownNYC]

Vincent, pin this man's comment. EVERYONE should be made aware of this info!!

[@johnybloom5575]

Thank you. But what are the best settings now ? And is there 1 set of options that is the beat or do i need to change it depending on the game? Thnx!!

[@darrenholmes8656]

@@johnybloom5575 Hi, honestly I will still play in pc mode with allm on and input lag set to boost, I am not bothered about being able to change the settings, Vincent's video on best PS5 settings is accurate but I just wanted to let everyone know the process if they wanted to access the settings.

[@kokation86]

Darren Holmes, if you turn off boost mode in the " prevent input delay" by put it into Standard, you can change Oled Motion Pro or TruMotion though the game optimizer menu while being on Pc mode (on the inputs), now you can turn VRR and ALLM and have TruMotion while in Pc mode... do you think that's the way to go?

[@billierey]

Thanks a lot for the info!!

Amazing work as always Vincent.

Love the videos man! How about a QN900A best PS5 settings??

[@nuggetz4037]

Would love to see Sony come up with an update on Bravia XR models to switch the external input mode automatically (to Enhanced format) when watching 4k Blu Rays (or any physical media). It currently just stays in VRR mode, and therefore stays in game mode.

[@ModernRudeBoy]

I just bought this TV today, and was wondering what was happening there. You sir saved me a lot of frustration. I myself is just enjoying all the ray tracing goodness the PS5 has to offer after years of playing on PS4 slim. I'll be using the RTINGS settings when playing online competitive.

[@christiansonsen]

Hi there I've been watching many of your videos recently. I have a new LG 43" 4K Active HDR TV for gaming hooked up by HDMI to my PC, and I just use the Optimized Gaming Mode enabled in the TV settings. HDR seems to be broken on Windows or maybe its my old crappy HDMI cable (1.4) I'm using right now. I think its the HDMI cable since sometimes I get blackscreens from time to time while watching youtube or video content, everything else works just fine in games while using Optimized Gaming Mode. I'm waiting for a new HDMI 2.1 (6.6ft 8k 60HZ HDCP 2.3) cable to arrive, hope this works out this time. If you interested the TV model is the LG 43UP7750PSB and this model seems only available for South American market (Ecuador-Argentina). Great content!!!.

[@Franchise2930]

Thanks for making this video. It was miserable playing red dead 2 without smooth motion

[@mentalhealthracing]

Great setup videos. I have an issue you might be able to solve. Racing games like Gran Turismo, I can see either blur or halo of the wings and the names above peoples cars jitter when trees are behind or with fences behind. It’s super distracting at times when following and chasing others. I’d love some help with this! LGC1 48”

[@hbk5723]

Gracias por tu explicación! Justamente era lo que deseaba, que el fideo vaya fluido y suave, y no como entcortado que me parece horrible! Me salvaste la vida

[@D3MiNsTr8]

Been having a issue with Xbox Series X and 120hz with the LG C2 42” intermittently showing no signal from time to time and having to turn the console off or changing to 60hz fixes the issue… I haven’t found much upon searching the net for this issue and LG still hasn’t got back to me with a answer saying have I tried different HDMI cables which I have with no luck. Always great content from Vincent I hope you could shed some light on this problem Im having.

[@Monster-Abee]

Have those cables been certified? I had the same issue with my LG CX and Series S. Turns out it was the HDMI cable that came with the console. Hope u sort it.👍

[@retrohec]

You saved me!!! Thanks a lot. New sub.

[@bellaing6963]

You are pretty impressive with your knowledge with Electronics thank you for your videos very knowledgeable

[@Dboiii96]

Would you recommend changing settings for gaming? I normally use the game optimized settings and just find the best for that certain game like fps, std, rpg etc. To me it looks fine but it if you recommend me changing them I’d be more than glad to, to get the best picture

[@kazechan1o1]

I really hope you do a new PlayStation 5 best settings video because with all these new updates and TV updates as well, I feel like it's due for some refresher. Cuz I have no idea what the hell to do. I have a C1 LG. Do I leave it on or off? Do I leave the VRR on or off. I don't even what trumotion thingy and oled dimming. Lol 😂

[@lyndonmohammed3199]

🙏🙏

[@H0P5]

Agreed! I followed his PS5 C1 set up vid at least a year ago, maybe two even, but I've no idea if I'm still optimised

[@kidonthemoon]

Yea it would be nice to get new video, I feel like the settings in his older video makes it too warm, maybe the software updates have changed things. But idk maybe I'm jus wrong.

[@layzy24]

Same.

[@NL_the_Godfather]

In the end u have to use the best settings u prefer yourself. Some like warmer, some like sharper or brighter.

[@davidtull2388]

XSX VRR if enabled is always on. This puts my LgCX into constant LLM meaning ALLM is a waste of time. I have to disable VRR if I want the convenience of ALLM.

[@karlsavage7495]

I literally don't know what to enable and disable with modern TVs any more. I guess if one doesn't see any issues, then just leave alone? Still, there's a constant niggling voice that my settings aren't 'correct' and therefore I'm not getting the optimum experience.

[@chancefuzzball1848]

Can you make an updated video of best picture settings for LG C1 for ps5/Xbox

[@Nicholas3011]

Omg what a legend, thank you so much❤

[@E96]

Vincent when will you be reviewing the TCL C935?

[@scarface11991]

Vincent there is another issue since update 03.30.06 on the C1. If you use an AVR through Earc then it cant passthrough uncompressed 5.1 or 7.1 audio anymore. Only compressed Dolby Digital 5.1 or compressed dolby atmos is possible. If you force 7.1 LPCM Audio on the ps5 it just passes Stereo instead of 7.1. It used to work fine before that said patch. Would be cool if you could test this out and maybe even make a video about this issue.

[@BarretinJapan]

it's true, for me too

[@Bozzy93]

Love your work! With the new LGc2 out will the settings you used for the C1 to optimise gaming be the same for the c2? I’d be interested for a C2 gaming setup vid if they are different settings to the c1

[@chicothereaperarriola1475]

Does the C1 LG 48 OLED run 1440hz

[@TheImpossiblePhase]

@@chicothereaperarriola1475 120hz

[@qamartheone]

In your best c1 settings for ps5 you have kept hdr to only on for supported games while here i am seeing you have changed to always on🤔

[@venger6012]

THANK YOU BRO!!! Went thru countless of forum posts and youtube videos full of false information on how to fix this and non of it worked and wasted a bunch of time. You fixed my PS5 issue just like that with one setting. Life safer.

[@gramatika937]

I changed my hdmi input from pc to gaming and it worked

[@Hyper_Light_Grifter]

Did you ever do a best picture settings for PC on the C1? Or should I just go by the PS5 settings video???

[@johnshawdocherty7594]

I just have to keep off pc input edit to use motion pro m8 same on Xbox only use this for 30 frame content and that is few and far between these days man hey have to you ever noticed a black faint line on your C1 just hope mine is not damage it's very faint but read that this can happen on these oleds?

[@JoelsterG4k]

BFI darkens picture and adds input lag and the same goes for any motion enhancement, Sony has also implemented VRR and 120fps in some of their games and run much better.

[@barroxbarrox1857]

I can handle +8ms with BFI. As for darkening the picture lots of settings to counter that ! Man i love BFI. Most of the time i don't use VRR at all as long as i can get 60/100/120 fps locked i just use vsync in combo with BFI. This is with a game pc. Once you go BFI+vsync you cant go back :)

[@HoodedSpidey]

On PS5 there’s a serious tradeoff when it comes to BFI and VRR. On Spider-Man for example you can get up to 120 FPS with rtx enabled when the latter is turned on.

[@johnybloom5575]

@@HoodedSpidey what are the best settings now for ps5 and lg c1 ? For example playing cod which needs lowest lag possible?

[@HoodedSpidey]

@@johnybloom5575 definitely game mode with VRR enabled. Avoid enabling anti-judder as it requires more time to process the image.

My friend thank you a lot. I was frustrated with the stuttering. I thought my tv was problematic. I was looking the whole time and you helped me. God bless you.

Well said.

[@jasonoreilly7818]

Thanks for the video, this helped so much. I've got an xbox and disabled low latency option in (settings, tv display options, video modes, allow lowlatency mode) and turned off. In case anyone wants to know

[@justinleahdixon]

Thank you so much bro!!!. it seems like the settings change on their own, well honestly they do. A lot of people are having this issue. This is ridiculous, especially for the amount of money we got a pay for this TV!.. we shouldn’t have to go through all the settings just to keep it fixed the way we had it. It’s fucking ridiculous.

[@MrStroodle]

This had also stopped me from being able to use Boost Mode instead of Standard in the Game Optimizer. I’m happy to report that is also fixed

[@youwebz]

I am an Xbox fan boy but still watched this vid as I just bought a C2 because of your work. Thank you Vincent. Hello from Sydney, Australia

[@MichaelM28]

Imagine being a trashbox fan 🤣🤣🤣

[@h0laPlaneta]

Excellent video as usual Vincent! Are the benefits of turning off ALLM available if you have the input configured as PC? Can you do an updated one for PS5 settings where you switch the input from PC to Game Console? I remember seeing that the PC mode is better for certain things, like watching 4K blu ray movies on the console, and some people here have issues even after disabling ALLM. With all the PS5 and LG C1, C2 firmware updates, maybe a yearly video would be a good idea. Thanks!

[@TheCorne87]

With trumotion and BFI on the screen get's dimmer and flickers, so i don't see any good thing in it to turn it on and use it..

[@jjsavior]

I appreciate that guys and Vincent, it works for me. The only game it matters for in my case is Horizon Forbidden west, which was a juttery mess at 30fps. Now the resolution mode plays much better. But I still prefer their new performance mode they implemented. Question, what games does this make more playable and look better for people? I'm curious 🤔 as to what everyone will say.

[@geoffnaylor3734]

For SDR games black frame insertion is a no brainer! It makes every game look way better in terms of motion clarity. It's the sort of thing though, that once you get used to it, you'll hate motion blur thats in everything else all the time. The only downside is you lose about 50% brightness in HDR, that's why it's only a slam dunk in SDR but I still use it in HDR all the time on a game by game basis.

[@jjsavior]

@@geoffnaylor3734 so from what you are saying you are losing brightness in sdr? But the games are not as blurry?

[@Classic_DionysuS]

Performance mode is 60fps. Resolution mode is typically 30.

[@MoZeZ92]

Vincent or any other in the know, could someone explain what are the model differences between LG C2 models C22LA, C22LB, C24LA, C24LB and so on?

i really hate these graying out of settings. I use a c1 as my pc monitor, so most of the time i want all processing disable. but SOMETIMES i want to enable frame interpolation and some other stuff. it's practically impossible to do. I have to go through so many hurdles! Takes like 5 minutes to find everything i have to do to make that happen, and then again for disabling it. so i just don't do it. which is a shame. The menu should never gray out, instead it should just give a pop up saying "picture mode will change X Y Z settings in order to enable this, proceed?" and fuckn do it. when i disable, revert back to what it was before.

[@BlvckVigil]

My issue with the C2 is that only when I turn on my ps5 the image is slightly shifted to the left leaving a small black bar next to the right bezel no idea how to fix it. Ps5 picture adjust doesn’t help because it’s the playable area just shifted a bit - so annoying
