LG CX/ C9 Recommended Best Settings for Xbox Series X (4K@120Hz, VRR, HDR) 

Your sacrifices are immeasurable and will not be forgotten!!!

“I have a secret Netflix profile that I use to try and watch stuff that I don’t want people to know I’m watching.” What a G.

Just bought a new 65” CX and this video really helped me get the most out of my series x. Straight to the point, no bs. One of the best tech tutorials I’ve ever seen.

"If you have a big fat pipe, you might as well use it." Facts my guy

"I haven't been to Aldi after i... made it on RU-vid." Holy shit i burst out in laughter

As soon as he said all things he lost by resetting the tv, that’s when I knew this man is a real one. Respect 👍🏼

Thank you so much! The level of detail and provided detail is appreciated. You’ve got rare presentation qualities that are hard to find, sir.

“I haven’t been into Aldi recently, since I made it on RU-vid.” I laughed so loud my partner had to explain what the noise was to the person on the other end of her business call.

“It’s like entering her for the first time, again”.....Teoh strikes again!

Summary: Home screen • Edit ◇ Set appropriate HDMI input to “PC” (changing this will reset all picture mode settings) SDR: Settings: • Set picture mode to “Game” Advanced settings: • Energy Saving: off • Picture mode settings for “Game” ◇ Sharpness: 0 ◇ Gamma: BT.1886 ◇ Advanced Controls: ▪ White Balance: Warm2 ◇ Picture Mode Settings: ▪ Black Level: Low HDR: Settings: • Set picture mode to “Game” Advanced settings: • Energy Saving: off • Picture mode settings for “Game” ◇ Sharpness: 0 ◇ Color: 50 ◇ Advanced Controls: ▪ Dynamic Tone Mapping: HGIG ▪ White Balance: Warm2 ◇ Picture Mode Settings: ▪ Black Level: Low

Just like your PS5 CX video I used your settings and it’s so much better, more clarity and performance. I’ve always had game picture set ‘too blue’ and have now gone to a warmer temperature. It’s so much more accurate and with HGIG on there is a much cleaner look in a lot of games. I’m sure like you’ve say this is down to the setup not doubling up on tone mapping. Thanks for making these videos Vincent, keep up the good work.

Thank you very much for not only telling us what to do and how to do it, but why it is done too. This helps me understand why I'm doing what I'm doing and how I can fix things myself in the future. Much appreciated & fantastic video - I find YOU very palatable haha

Vincent is hilarious, one of my favourite RU-vid personalities, especially ‘since he made it big on RU-vid’ 🤣 I watch his videos even when I am not particularly interested in the product 👍🏻 Thank you and keep up the great work Vincent.

Your "dings" have been on point on this video! 😂😂 Yes please do a PS5 video for LGC9 or X. I'll have to save the video for the future though as I can't get my hands on a PS5 ARRRRGH!

Between 8 - 9 mins killed me 😂👌💯 keep up the great infomation and dry humour Vincent, the far best channel on youtube for tech guides and stats. :D another great video, keep them coming :D

1 out of 100 videos I watch to resolve a problem actually help me solve the problem. You solved my problem and essentially made me an expert on every aspect of these Oleds. You sir are a legend

Thanks a lot, Vincent! This video was incredibly educational even though I'm on a PC with an RTX-30 series card. I adjusted the settings of my TV according to your specifications and it looks a lot better and less of an eyesore. Keep up the great work!

08:45 I haven't been to Aldis recently after I, you know, made it on youtube..

I Used these exact settings for a nano series with the exception of knocking it to warm 1 instead. Everything looks wonderful. The pc mode tip was a huge help.

I love how he keeps a straight face when he says funny things. 😂

The chime at the end of his jokes is pure gold 🤣

"I prefer it laying flat cause it's just feels more natural to slot things in that way" 😂

Just got one today. Thank you for the step by step and reasoning behind it all. These settings helped a lot

Bro. You’re the best. Getting the best experience of my set up because of you and explaining everything. Knowledgeable!

I get my CX tomorrow and I already got my series X, I dont have words for this video, YOU ARE THE MAN, SIR! Thank you for everything you do!

was searching the internet over for lg cx settings with my new console thank you! would totally watch a more in depth analysis for even more settings :)

I've had a CX for several months and only had some basic optimization until I watched this. Super informative and helpful, thank you!

Just found this channel after buying this TV, and am so happy I did. This is great information. thank you!

“If you have a big fat pipe you might as well take FULL advantage of it.” 😂

I haven’t been to aldi since I made it on RU-vid. Gold. Somebody give this guy a comedy special please.

Thank you Vincent! Just got my XBOX today. Came back to this video for all the perfect settings. Games look amazing! Thanks again!

Fell in love with this guy's personality. Your video was a huge help!

Thanks for this, I needed this level of detailed info when I receive my 65inch LG GX model that is on its way for my series X! :D

Legend

This seemed to fix my invalid format error I was receiving regularly and my picture quality is noticeably better. Thank you!

you are so incredibly intelligent, I caught myself leaning in towards my screen. i love watching videos from you, i learn something new every time

I would love to see a more detailed video with you going through all the setting in the xbox too! (Your videos are always awesome)

Amazing thanks a lot! I immediately changed my settings to you’re recommendations!

Thanks for the great tips I have an LG nano cell and as soon as I followed your calibration tip the color/picture looks excellent. I feel like I'm watching a whole new TV 🙌

Such a brilliant informative video. I've got the CX55 inch and Series X and it's never looked or felt better thanks to this video

Perfect timing just unpacking my Series X now for C9 😍

Dude. Hearing about your sacrifices made me laugh out loud for the first time this week. I'm rolling!! Sorry for your losses* I mean.. typo

Great video. At first i wished you'd just written out the settings in the video description so i wouldn't have watch a 21 minute video, but your delivery was so interesting that the time flew by. Thanks for all the explanations and the humor!

Love the subtle comedy you add to your videos - great work sir!

Amazing video, Vincent! 👏👏👏

I turn help off cause I don’t like to be told what to do 😂😂 I like this dude 💪🏻

Thanks I watch you video all the time I went out and bought me a cx! Love it

Thank you!! I have the Xbox One X, and I was noticing that the TV kept changing the brightness, colors, contrast, and etc. It was very irritating and ruined the picture. This was perfect instructions on how to get my TV to a absolutely solid and unchanged picture quality :)

Omg, literally what i just searched for!!!! Thankks do one for the ps5, aswell, im getting it tomorrow :)

Just got my series X, this video was extremely helpful. Thank you!

Thank you so much!! I was wondering about the washed out screen after calibration before. Thanks for your tip regarding Hgig!!!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Great videos love your work. 🙏 I noticed the same thing with my Series X on my LG. I can see a lowering of colour depth, and a change in the white point. I can also see a lowering of the resolution or textures. As if it’s using a lower resolution and then upscaling to 4K. But I also noticed the now instantaneous response with the controller in games, as long as I kept everything wired. And, after a LOT of testing on a PC the PS4 Pro and the series X, if I enable HDMI-CEC, pass through the audio and turn on VRR. The precision and accuracy increases further with analogue control, like smoothly keeping a moving targets head in your crosshairs. This takes your own performance, immersion, satisfaction and gaming experience in twitch shooters and intense/fast combat and action games to a new level. Since doing this I can now have the most amazing battles against massive odds. Games like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, flight/driving games, and of course the most important for me, online PvP with games like Dark Souls. Once I stared having these great experiences I couldn’t go back to the high detail settings I use to prefer. I now also always use the high performance mode instead of high detail in the games settings if available. My LG screen only supports up to 60hz with Free and G-sync, I can’t wait to try out a newt display with 100+ refresh rates. 😃

I feel sad, the average person will not know to enable these things and therefore will not enjoy the best there tv can offer. All this bullshit needs to be automated.

“It’s like entering her for the first time” wtf...and why do you have a secret Netflix account lol?

My Man ! You make my Day , i have lot of problems with calibration of my lg bx 55, but your settings works very well on my Tv !!!! The picture looks awsome ! Thank you , thank you, thank you ❤

Thank you for the step by step instructions and in detail explanations! 👍

I seen the Xbox series s live on Amazon uk for 10 minutes and it sold out , insanity confirmed , I really hope to find the series x on stock till Christmas wish me luck :D

Please do this for PS5 as well. Uber Uber helpful!!! Thanks for the great work! Love your content!

Thanks man, watching your videos is like going to Calibration college. Can't wait to try these settings

Had to pause this video at least 6 times to keep up with him. Genius at what he does 👍

I hope you make another video explaining the best settings for PS5 on LG CX!

One thing I find really odd is that on the C9, you can use PC mode to get auto black level, but if you do that and the Xbox is set to Standard, the TV seems to still be going for High (despite the fact that the diagnostic menu clearly shows limited). Furthering the confusion, if you use the Xbox's calibration app, this mismatched state is the only one where you can see the top eye, so the console seems to want you to be mismatched. I'm really not sure who is more at fault here, but it's really quite annoying.

This worked out SO well :D Thanks for the breakdown!

Detailed video. I just got my CX and had Free sync on and noticed that I had lost Dolby vision. I was wondering why. This clears it up. Plus explanation of the details is awesome. Thank you sir.

My dude, you’re a legend! 🙏

Just wondering why didn’t you show the calibration settings.. before resetting? Also could you do one for Samsung’s QLEDS

Thank you for making this. Picking up the 55inch Friday and last week I got a series x. I would of never known any of this and have been one to chase my tail.

Thanks for the laugh. Love that you broke character with the aldi's joke. :D

Amazing content my friend ! Can you do a similar video but with the best settings for PS5 , I have an Oled C9 and i cant wait to tested with a PS5

It would be nice to see you also calibrate the CX for movies.

11:03 that’s a gem. Even though I don’t have the CX I have a lg nanocell85 which has all the capabilities as the CX. I did notice the difference in color when switching from hdmi to pc from the home dashboard. Really appreciate the tips sir.

Thank you so much went step by step. Had to rewind a couple times because you go fast using tv remote. Excellent knowledge sharing😀

you sir have just received my subscription, besides the great humor, your sacrifice for bringing us this video is amazing. Thank you

Next PS5 on CX/C9! Don't forget to show us a game and play! :)) Would be fun! Very funny!

Thank you so much! Great video. Informative and i love the subtitle humor. Much love.

Thanks for the video, another one for ps5 would be really helpful as well thanks!

please do the ps5 video with a c9 for comparison with the cx :)

You’re incredible at explaining the calibration. You’re excellent!

Absolutely Amazing! You continue to impress with your content!

Please do a 2023 recommended settings video for LG C2 w/ PS5 & Xbox Series X….please.

Can we get a summary of the to-do's? It's nice having all the explanation and puns, but it'd be great to have a quick reference of all the tweeks to make.

These settings on my c9/SX are making halo 3 look like a brand new game. Can’t wait for infinite, battlefield 2042, and all the future next gen games. You’re the man, love the content.

This guy is amazing. Iv learned so much about my new CX tv and how to calibrate it. I have a rtx2070 and believe these settings work well. Thanks for sharing!

Hey Vincent, it would be great to see you and @EvilBoris analyze the HDR content on Series X and PS5 games! 🎮

Can you do a similar video but for PC gaming instead?? Looking for to see your recommendations! I'm using a CX as my PC gaming screen :) Curious to see about the HDR settings and if it differs from the xbox settings.

Thank you for showing this video. I’m sure it was troubling when reset your tv just to show us your knowledge. Again thank you 🙏

I've recently discovered this channel and i love this guy already

Thanks for this Vincent! I'm looking at getting a CX for PS5 next week, I'm guessing the same settings apply? :)

Yes please ! I need a best settings for Ps5 for LG CX. Thanks heaps

Dude. Best video I been looking for. Finally fixed my problem with dolby vision! Thank you+

Got the 55' CX on sale at costco for $1450 with a 5 year allstate warranty included and I mostly bought it for my Series X so this was literally the first video I watched for setup and I sure do appreciate it because these tvs take a lot of tuning to find the sweet spot

Yes Vincent, please make a same video for the CX and the Ps5

we need that another video with all different settings (video fidelity/modes)

Just stumbled upon this channel. This is awesome dude. Thank you HDTV review guy

Finally , someone that can explain the crazy ass amount of settings on these TV's. I can say that this works with and is exactly the same for the LG Nano 86 UNA. Thank you!

This is a must for fifa 21on ps5. I would really like a copy of your test pattern

Please do one like this but for PC gaming, more specific the settings done on the PC.

Love this. You’re a legend. Vincent, keep up the good work! 🙂

Amazing video . Well explicated ! I followed step by step , Its verte easy.

Just to make some aware, you don't need to set colour depth to 10bit, if you leave it on default 8bit, when you launch a HDR game it will automatically switch to 10bit, that way you get 8bit for SDR games which I believe is best, and 10bit for HDR games.
