My Recommended settings for your Philips TV when gaming - Part 1

[@alessiobiancalana8414]

Hi and thanks for the settings . Is your tv an VA ( MVA ) panel ? I have 58pus8556 and tried your settings. It looks great but I have to better try them with movies or tv shows , since I have no ps5 or xbox ( only retrogaming with dreamcast and first xbox or max till xbox 360) . My panel looked trash from the box , with blueish or reddish or greenish image on darker scenes , and almost impossible to see details . Now it seems good at first use ( I only tried on avatar with hdr) . I also found an excel document with some calibration settings for philips 2021 (pus8556 or others) VA panels but I have to also try them . I found it on Av forum thread that discuss the calibration of this panel . I also want to ask you what do you press on the remote to have the picture settings bar ? I have to go by all the panels to reach the full settings menu on mine

Hello there! I just posted a correction settings video, for guys like you to enjoy. It has more accurate settings instead of the more fun looking image that I gave out on this video. I highly recommend you copy those newer settings for an accurate looking image.

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

Hello there! I have made a new and better video if that would be interesting in anyway to you 😁 it will make your TV look twice as good 😎

[@alessiobiancalana6068]

Great ​@@EverythingPS5ProI'll calibrate mine in 2 hours when back home . Really complex to fully understand how to do the advanced calibration the first time ,but really worth . It's completely a new panel

I have the pus8848 can i use these settings or will it look not that good?

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

That my friend is for you to decide, i’d definitely try it out if I were you. But it is another model so its most likely not gonna look the same, but it couldn’t hurt to try it out.

[@luxurywealthymind7154]

Wow that was a fast reply of you sir haha yeah i will definitely check them out see if it works im mostly gonna use it for my ps5 and netflix but do you know if these settings don’t apply for me good do u know where i can find these kinda settings for my tv cause i cant find them nowhere online :(

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@@luxurywealthymind7154 the Philips series tvs aren’t mainstream, so most of the world do not grade or even try to calibrate these tvs, so if you want a real TV in the future i’d go for a LG C-series TV (OLED) or a Samsung OLED like S95C.

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@@luxurywealthymind7154 your sadly gonna have to eyeball your own calibration.

[@luxurywealthymind7154]

@@EverythingPS5Pro yeah i was about to buy a qled/oled but then i stepped back when i heard about some issues about the screen that it will glitch or something lol i mean the philips looks okay with gaming only black level kinda blurry i guess i did something wrong with the hdr setting on ps5 but in general looking applying for the eye but il try these settings out for sure thanks

[@matsschibstadjakobsen4321]

Does these settings apply to my Phillips 8949 as well:)? (have not seen the video yet..)

You can always try tv settings for other tvs and see if you like it 😁❤️

[@jamietoye7500]

Hi do you use this calibration settings for watching normal tv too?

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

My settings are great, on normal TV watching I recommend lowering the colour to 80 and turning off colour enhancement on is a safer bet for TV watching, if were talking movies, I have a diffirent setup on the movie preset, its identical to the settings in the video but the black level is on 44 instead of 55, to fix black level raide in most tv series.

Great video. Could you please tell me if the Philips 8909 is a good TV for the PS5 Pro? It has 4K 120hz and HDMI 2.1 and it’s not to expensive so looking at them for my 2nd gaming TV. Many thanks

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@@NJP__666 if your on a tight budget I would definitely recommend there gaming tvs 😎👍 Philips 8909 is great ❤️

[@NJP__666]

@ thank you for the information. I have a LG C4 83 inch which I game on but when my family want to watch TV I need something else to play on. I was thinking of getting the C4 42 inch for my little side gaming setup but I come across the 8909 which is more than half the price. So I only play Call Of Duty and Warzone so I was thinking if the 8909 is good enough I could use that as my 2nd as I will mainly play on the C4 83 anyways. I have now subscribed as appreciate your help and your great TV settings videos 😊

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@ if you have money to buy an lg c4 55” do that instead, the brightness loss will be heavy. And a person that is used to lg oled will not enjoy philips in my opinion as much I really do not recommend to downgrade to an LCD… when I wrote my first comment I thought you came from nothing and just needed a good 60hz gaming tv 😢 Thanks for your support! 😁❤️

[@NJP__666]

@ I would have to get the LG C4 42 inch because my little gaming corner I built would only will fit a 42 inch in there unfortunately so the TV can be no bigger than 108cm. Really appreciate all your help. I will order another C4 42 for my little gaming corner. Keep up the great work. Amazing channel 👍🏻

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@NJP__666 thanks man! C4 is the right choice ❤️

Hi man, i am using 55pml9008, and when every time TV resets my preset where 20 pts are 15/-8/-15 on blue and blue always resets to -8 on every of 20pts, can u help ?

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@@dominikwisniowski7328 hmm, this sounds like your tv has a software bug there is no way to fix that sort of thing. If it was bought recently I’d take it back to the store for a refund but if not then I’d just suggest not using my calibration at all. Its not recommended for your tv model either way. Most likely it doesn’t look good on your tv model, all tvs are unique and the differences in picture quality and colour shift can be huge. It might make the picture worse for you. At the end of the day its up to you, if you like the settings then keep them 😁👍 About the tv resetting by themselves, that has not happened to me personally before. It does happen for my friends Samsung S90C however, constantly. You can check if your tv is in retail mode or in store mode.

[@TheDarkKnight201]

Are these presets only for gaming, or for movie and shows as well?

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

I have more professional settings if thats what your after, this video showcases a more fun looking image for the viewer, more pop and colour saturation. What do you wanna tweak your Philips for?

[@TheDarkKnight201]

I would love to get those, i have the -9 settings in your earlier comments. What im after are deep black levels en bright colours in HDR and Dolby Vision

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@@TheDarkKnight201 then if HDR is your primary goal, I would recommend u to lower the black level or highten it depending on the content it self. an LG OLED could do this for you and adjust automatically but for us LCD users its a bit of a hassle to use HDR. Its even fake HDR if you put your time into learning about it. Real HDR has a module inside of the TV and it also “kinda” has to be an OLED to really give you that insane contrast and POP! I personally use pretty low settings on my hdr settings and kinda care more about true dark (black levels) that are more correct looking to the eye when watching movies. You will never be without some level of black level raise and still have deep blacks on movies. Almost all movies are dark grey instead of black so you have to force it darker and lose some small insignificant details. Otherwise buy and OLED. Highest Gamma possible Brightness auto adjust mode And low black level and then check out all your favorite movies and look at the dark scenes and adjust so that it looks great in all movies and all scenes.

[@TheDarkKnight201]

Ah Thanks! And do you have some recommendation voor SDR picture on my Philips, i used the one in your video and this is already better than i had. Philips HDR is not that great. So the last few times i stick with SDR. And for gaming, the settings in the video are the best?

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@@TheDarkKnight201 I am writing the script for a video in question right now for best overall settings, will ping you on release! 😎👍

[@Cass6ix]

Sorry but for UE model its 0/-2 or 4 gamma ? Im confused. I want to test your settings on the pml9008 , Idon't know if it's a good idea but hey let's try. Edit: and I don't know why but but for me , the tv keep reseting the B offset of the withepoint alignment 20 point to -8. and only the b offset. Weird.

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

Sound like a weird issue, but Philips tvs are weird 😂👍 +4 makes the image transitions from bright to dark (darker) whice is better for color reproduction but will make shadows darker. This is the setting I use in SDR, but in HDR I use the brightest option -4

[@Cass6ix]

@@EverythingPS5Pro Oh ok I see , thanks for the quick reply.

[@Cass6ix]

@@EverythingPS5Pro Hey , I'm back again. I just figured it out. If I couldn't set the B-offset to -15 on the 20 point, it's because it automatically adjusts according to what I set on the G offset If I set -8 on the G then the b offset will also be -8. So if I want -15 on the B, I have to set -15 on the green too .... Is it better to put -8 on both or -15? Or is it better not to touch the offsets at all , sSorry for the tricky questions but your video is the most usefull for me and my tv model.

[@Cass6ix]

Ok nervermind. I've just seen your new calibration in recent comments, it looks way better and it solves my problem because the offsets are at the same level on the first two levels. thanks

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

@@Cass6ix level 1 is to have ALL three at -15 and the same to level 2
