    What is your HDR setting?


    Just curious if you are using HDR or keeping it off?

    Not sure what the setting is on the console, but for PC it's either OFF, or AutoDetect.

      I have a Lg C-9 tv with a PS5 and have been trying to make the game brighter.
      The replays seem to be too dark.
      The only fix is to put the screen setting to vivid but then it looks too cartoony.

        Dolby Vision always on. I remember we had major bugs with it a handful of years ago and I had a separate Xbox input with it turned off that i would only use with Madden. Thankfully it looks great now.

          You should be using HGIG with a C2.

            I do...with every other game except Madden and NBA 2K. That's my preference.

              That was my issue too. I have a gaming monitor. PS5 is noticeablely darker than PC on same monitor settings. It just looks so much better on PC.

                It is likely due to graphical settings on PC. In Star Wars Battlefront 2, for example, the post-processing setting had a direct impact on HDR quality.

                My 4090 PC looks generation's ahead of the PS5's image on Madden 24. I am playing at native 4k with a locked 120fps, but still Madden on PS5 looks worse than usually (specifically the crowd between plays).

                    So, I'm still in the infancy stages learning all of this stuff, but where the LG C2 is concerned...

                    When using HDR, if you go to the brightness setting, you'll have three choices...Tone Mapping On, Tone Mapping Off, and HGIG.

                    Tone Mapping On makes the overall picture brighter. The downside to using it is that it makes the overall pictured bright, even in scenes where there should be black dark. It lifts black levels.

                    HGIG focuses on specular highlights in a scene, example being you have a dark scene in a game and the only thing that's illuminated is the moon or a light bulb.

                    When using HDR10, I use HGIG for all games that have in game HDR settings because you can control/calibrate brightness.

                    I use Tone Mapping On for games that don't have in game HDR settings.

                    I also play my games using Cinema Home picture setting instead of Game Optimizer as well. But this is just my preference. You'll probably have people come behind me and say, I'm not using my C2 correctly lol


                    ETA

                    Coming back to add that, only when using Game Optimizer do you have the option to choose Dynamic Tone Mapping On/Off or HGIG. When you use the other picture settings it's just Dynamic Tone Mapping On ir Off.
