I know this has been an infuriating topic for a while now, but gosh it's getting on my nerves. I'm trying to watch Secret Level, finally, and I can't see half of what's happening because so many scenes across many of the shorts are pretty much pitch black.

Why?? Why not, y'know, just give us a little bit of fucking contrast? Instead, I have to choose whether to have a light on or to not see the scenes.

Sure you can tweak it some but it's panel dependent what you should use and it only helps to a point when the entire scene just isn't lit and then compressed. It also depends on whether you've got a dark room or some ambient light. Anyone recommending a single number is off track and missing the base issue.

Also, why would I use 2.0 audio track? I've got a 7.2.4 surround sound system flat from 15-20k hz. I'm not going to split a 2.0 signal. And yes, I've boosted the center hot compared to the surrounds. Again, it's pretty clear that most of the time it's just not recorded well.

This stuff is documented everywhere why it's happening and people aren't happy with it. Others have linked examples. It's not my setup, it's also a problem in theaters and elsewhere.

My 2.0 signal advice is for those using the built-in TV speakers or a soundbar who wonder why dialouge is so quiet.

Also, most TV's don't have an arbitrary slider for gamma. 2.2 is a target that many of the same model of TV should be within about 0.5 of when selected.

That advice is for those using LCD TVs with a 300 nit max brightness, not a 1000 nit OLED where BT.1886 may be more appropriate.
