When they first had HDR and the adjustment bar, it was easier for people to adjust the HDR depending on their TV.

With it gone, it either looks good on your tv or doesn’t unless your settings are off.

If you don’t think your settings are wrong, it might just be the game as I feel they removed the slider to meet in the middle. So some it looks great, some it looks bad.

I recommend checking out rtings if they have a calibration for your tv. You really need to have it calibrated yourself but the internet gave me a very good starting point.

Hopefully you can figure it out so you can enjoy it. The game is night and day when your HDR is working as intended.

Re: HDR On or OFF ?

I think maybe I’ve been confused between HDR and frame rate. Are these connected? I have a PS4 Pro and a 4K QLED. I’ve been playing with HDR on. However, sometimes I play on an Asus computer monitor that does not have HDR support. Is there a difference in frame rate between the two?

The ps4 pro has a feature in the settings under screen options. You can calibrate your hdr. I have tried it and it does seem to work. Although I have it on, I'm really not blown away with the picture. It could be my tv. I have a samsung 7 series tv 2019 year.

Honestly it's not bad, just the colour don't pop like when HDR is off. However, I believe with HDR on, it looks more realistic so I think I'll stick with it on. My TV is a Sony 65" XBR630E.

Re: HDR On or OFF ?

Here's the thing about HDR. Some TV's may say they are 4K HDR but do not actually have the capabilities to produce good or true HDR.

Find out the model of your TV and go to rtings.com. It will show you how your TV performs in HDR mode.

In order to get the best out of HDR, your TV needs to have a wide color gamut, 10-bit panel, and high peak brightness. Somewhere around 1,000 nits of peak brightness, give or take a little.

If this is not the case, then HDR will most likely look washed out.

As for settings, most TV's when using HDR will automatically default to the proper settings. A lot of them should be grey'd out. It should be on max brightness, max contrast, and you should always be playing in game mode with all post processing settings turned off.

If you have a TV with local dimming, that should be set to high. There might be a setting called something like X-tended dynamic range. Those settings should be on high. Other than than, other post-processing settings should be set to off.

Unfortunately The Show, Madden, NBA 2K don't have HDR sliders to adjust to our TV's settings. They are pretty much set to an average of a good HDR TV.
