The name can be confusing as it varies by TV brand and display type. It\u2019s often called \u201cBacklight\u201d but may be labeled \u201cBrightness,\u201d a title originally reserved for a different picture setting that affects black levels and dynamic range (defined below). Your TV should give you some basic guidance to find the right setting, and you can always hit \u201creset\u201d if you get lost. Unlike most other picture settings, raising or lowering luminosity doesn\u2019t affect picture quality or accuracy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">In SDR, the display brightness will usually be set somewhere below the maximum, depending on which Picture Mode you choose. If you like your current SDR picture mode, but feel the overall picture is too bright or dim, simply adjust the backlight\/brightness to taste. Since SDR content is more static than HDR, turning the brightness level up too high can be uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">When watching HDR content, your display brightness will be automatically maxed out by default (unless the ambient light sensor is on). That\u2019s because HDR metadata tells your TV where to get really bright or really dark, and the TV responds accordingly without blowing your eyeballs out. One HDR setting adjustment worth considering is Dynamic Tone Mapping, designed to analyze and optimize for the brightest and darkest sections on screen. It\u2019s often off by default in film modes (but not always) and the quality varies by make and model. With most TVs, I recommend leaving Tone Mapping off for starters and adjusting it later if you need some extra pop.<\/p>\n<p>Ambient Light Sensors: The Ghost in the Machine<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Even after you change your TV\u2019s picture mode from the default Low Power or Eco modes, you may find it is auto-dimming or acting strange in different lighting. This likely means your TV has an optical sensor turned on somewhere. That\u2019s fine if you don\u2019t mind your TV adjusting to your room\u2019s ambient light automatically, but I\u2019ve found most such sensors don\u2019t work as well as advertised and can sometimes lead to a lackluster picture.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Not all TVs have light sensors, but if you\u2019re noticing odd dimming, this could be the culprit. If your TV backlight is changing on its own, you may need to dig into the Picture or General settings and kill said optical sensor. It&#8217;s usually labeled something like Eco or Ambient Light.<\/p>\n<p>Brightness\/Black Levels<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Not to be confused with the backlight settings above, this setting specifically adjusts the TV\u2019s black levels by changing the overall dynamic range. Raising this setting can help you see tough shadow details that may be obscured in some content by default, but you\u2019ll want to be judicious because setting it too high can make the picture look washed out. For most TVs, you\u2019ll want to leave the Brightness or Black Level setting at default or close to it, only adjusting if you\u2019re having trouble seeing dark content in your regular viewing environment.<\/p>\n<p>Contrast<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">At its most basic, Contrast adjusts your TV\u2019s white point levels without raising black levels. It corresponds to the Black Level\/Brightness setting, with one affecting the other. For HDR TV modes that use dynamic tone mapping, Contrast is often considered ineffective and\/or unpredictable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">For SDR video, raising or lowering the Contrast can help control the blurring of brighter images, known as clipping. If you\u2019re missing some detail in clouds or skylines, you could try lowering the contrast a few points to see if it looks better. If you\u2019re doing any notable Contrast adjustment, you should use a proper test pattern, like those offered in benchmark discs. You\u2019ll then want to go back to the Black Level\/Brightness setting to make sure it still looks clear and accurate.<\/p>\n<p>Aspect Ratio<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">You probably won\u2019t need to touch this setting unless you\u2019re watching some super old-school shows with a 4:3 aspect ratio. Your TV&#8217;s Aspect Ratio is usually set to something like \u201cAuto\u201d or \u201cNormal\u201d but if your picture looks odd or stretched, you may need to play around with the ratio or Zoom functions in the picture settings until it looks better.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"4 different aspect ratios for televisions\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66e217a0a1a147fd3f9d3cab\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/TV-aspect-ratios-wide-screen-classic-GettyImages-1393600897-petrroudny-(cropped).jpg 1600w\" data-sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd isTgyB fNaHcW caption__credit\">Photograph: petrroudny\/Getty Images<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Color and Temperature<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">I don\u2019t recommend messing with the main Color or Tint settings for newer TVs, especially when using accurate picture modes like Filmmaker or Cinema, but there are some color settings you can adjust to taste. Turning the Color Saturation up or down will make things look more or less vivid respectively. Adjusting the Color Temperature will heavily affect the overall look, with the Warm modes giving a redder overall tone and Standard or Cool modes looking more bluish. Again, the warmer modes are generally the most accurate (even if they may look a little dim or yellowish at first), but cooler modes may look better for some content, like sports.<\/p>\n<p>Sharpness\/Clarity<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">The TV\u2019s Clarity or Sharpness is another setting you\u2019ll generally want to leave alone, with some exceptions. If you\u2019re getting unnatural amounts of moir\u00e9, where the picture flickers or swirls in particularly fine patterns, lowering the Sharpness may help a bit. You may also want to lower the Sharpness if you\u2019re noticing odd artifacts around lines or hard edges, which corresponds with how closely you\u2019re sitting.<\/p>\n<p>Motion Smoothing: A Dab Will Do<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Motion Smoothing settings. including options like Judder or Blur Reduction, have long been maligned by picture purists. Using digital enhancements like frame interpolation (which adds artificial frames), motion smoothing can create the infamous \u201cSoap Opera\u201d effect, making film and TV shows look oddly cheap.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">The setting is usually off by default in film-forward picture modes, but not always. For years, I\u2019ve recommended disabling motion smoothing for anything other than high-frame-rate content like sports. However, as TVs have gotten better at digital enhancement, I\u2019ve found myself using very minor motion smoothing to adjust for jerky motion like hard-panned camera shots or fast-moving objects that tend to stutter due to a display&#8217;s input response.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung S90D QD-OLED Photograph: Ryan Waniata TV Brightness (AKA Backlighting) Here, we\u2019re talking about adjusting your TV\u2019s lighting system for overall \u201cluminosity,\u201d usually among the first available Picture Settings.
