X89J with Sky Q - Best settings for UHD and HDR

[macj2361]

Hi,

I have just got a new TV - 43X89J which I am using with Sky Q. 

Connected on HDMI1 (also tried HDMI 4) with Enhanced option and Sky Q set to 2160p 10 bit on Sky Q 2TB box / Hardware 32B12D / Software Q180.000.16.00L / Sky high speed HDMI cable.

Currently using Rtings recommended picture settings.

The issues I have are (a) I can’t see any difference between HD and UHD and (b) HDR picture is dark.

Does anyone have suggestions for (a) best general picture settings for UHD and (b) how to resolve HDR content generating a dark picture?

Thanks for any assistance.

Depending on the viewing distance from a small panel like this your eyes won't be able to take advantage of UHD resolution compared to HD. ANd regarding SkyQ it is probably an issue of Sky itself (raised on most TV platform) combined with the relative low HDR brigthness of your set
