by

The LG C2 is a popular choice when it comes to gaming, especially for the new PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles. You can take a look at this guide from Seeking Tech to see what are the best settings to use for this OLEDtelevision set when it comes to playing video games.

1. To start off, use the HDMI cables that came with your console to connect to one of the HDMI ports of the C2. For the uninformed, this television set comes with four HDMI 2.1 ports.

Make sure that the gaming systems are directly connected to the TV as you should avoid using splitters or pass-through devices as these may introduce input lag and cause other compatibility issues.

2. Next, go to the Home Dashboard menu of the C2 television set. From there, select the three vertical dots icon and then Edit Inputs.

Afterwards, select the HDMI input that is currently connected to your game console. In the Edit Icon menu, you then need to select PC. By doing so, you will unlock the full bandwidth for HDMI.

3. You then need to go to the All Settings menu and then go the Picture.

In the Picture menu, you first need to select HDR Select Mode and then set it to Game Optimizer.

Go back to the Picture menu and then make sure that you set Aspect Ratio to Original.

4. You should then head to the Advanced Settings section of the Picture menu and then select Brightness. From there, you need to do the following:

  • Set OLED Pixel Brightness to 100.
  • Set Adjust Contrast to 100.
  • Set Black Level to 50.
  • Set Auto Dynamic Contrast to Off.
  • Set Dynamic Tone Mapping to HGiG.
  • Set Peak Brightness to High.
  • Set Gamma (Adjust Brightness) to 2.2.
  • Set Video Range to Auto.
  • Set Motion Eye Care to Off.

The aforementioned settings are for playing HDR games. For SDR games, you can change the following settings:

  • Set OLED Pixel Brightness to 70.
  • Set Adjust Contrast to 85.
  • Set Dynamic Tone Mapping to Off.
  • You can leave the other settings the same when it comes to playing SDR games.

5. Head back to the Advanced Settings section of the Picture menu. This time, you need to select Color. You then need to do the following:

  • Set Color Depth to 55 (for SDR games, you can set this to 50).
  • Tint to 0.
  • Afterwards, select White Balance and then set Color Temperature, Red, Green and Blue to 0.

6. Go back to the Advanced Settings section of the Picture menu once again and then select Clarity.

In the Clarity section, you need to do the following:

  • Set Adjust Sharpness to 0.
  • Set Super Resolution to Off.
  • Set Noise Reduction to Off.
  • Set MPEG Noise Reduction to Off.
  • Set Smooth Gradation to Off.
  • Set Real Cinema to Off.
  • Set TruMotion to Off.

7. Go all the way back to the All Settings menu and then go to General. Afterwards, select AI Service and then make sure all of the settings (including AI Picture Pro, AI Brightness Settings and AI Genre Selection) are turned off.

8. Head back to the General section and then select OLED Care > Device Self Care > Energy Saving. Afterwards, you need to make sure that the Energy Saving Step is set to Off.

9. Go back to the Device Self Care menu and then select OLED Panel Care. Afterwards, make sure to enable Screen Move and set Adjust Logo Brightness to Low.

10. Open the Game Optimizer menu and then select All Settings.

You then need to make sure you are in the Game tab. Afterwards, you need to do the following:

  • Set Game Genre to Standard.
  • Set Reduce Blue Light to Off.
  • Set Dark Room Mode to Off.
  • Set Prevent Input Delay (Input Lag) to Boost.
  • Set VRR & G-Sync to On.
  • Set Fine Tune Dark Areas to 0 (you can change this later if some scenes get too dark to see when you are playing a specific game).

11. Your LG C2 should now be fully optimized for your PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, Xbox Series X and/or Xbox Series S. With that said, you still need to make sure that you set your console correctly for this OLED TV.

On the PS5 side, head over to Settings > Screen and Video > Video Output. From there, you need to do the following:

  • Set resolution to 2160p.
  • Set VRR to Automatic (we recommend leaving Apply to Unsupported Games disabled for now as it may cause issues for specific titles).
  • Set 120 Hz Output to Automatic.
  • Set ALLM to Automatic.
  • Set 4K Transfer Rate to Automatic.
  • Set HDR to On When Supported.
  • Set Deep Color Output to Automatic.
  • Set RGB Range to Automatic (Recommended).
  • Select Adjust HDR and then follow the on-screen instructions to calibrate the HDR brightness.

For the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, go to Settings > General > TV & display options > Video modes. Afterwards, make sure that the following boxes are checked:

  • Allow auto-low latency mode
  • Allow variable refresh rate
  • Allow 4K
  • Allow HDR10
  • Allow Dolby Vision
  • Dolby Vision for Gaming

We also recommend leaving Auto HDR disabled as it will convert SDR content to HDR, which may cause some games to look worse.

Next, head back to TV & display options menu and then select Calibrate HDR for games. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the HDR brightness output.

  • If you are using HDMI to connect your external sound output device, then you need to make sure that the HDMI connection is passing through correctly, especially if you are connecting it to a splitter or another pass-through device, as each junction may introduce audio delay.
  • Keep in mind that wireless listening devices will introduce more audio lag when compared to wired listening devices.

How to enable PS5, Xbox Series X and S VRR support for LG B2, C2 and G2

by

Variable Refresh Rate is a helpful feature for the LG B2, C2 and G2 as it will make most video games that have frame rate issues look smoother in addition to getting rid of screen tearing. Currently, the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X consoles use VRR.

To see how you can turn on Variable Refresh Rate for the B2, C2 and G2, you can take a look at this tutorial at Seeking Tech.

Before we begin, it should be noted that this guide is based on the following television sets:

  • 55”, 65” and 77” screen sizes of the LG B2
  • 42”, 48”, 55” 65”, 77” and 83” screen sizes of the LG C2
  • 55” 65”, 77” and 83” screen sizes of the LG G2

This article should cover the following model numbers:

  • OLED55B2PUA
  • OLED65B2PUA
  • OLED77B2PUA
  • OLED42C2AUA
  • OLED42C2PUA
  • OLED48C2AUA

  • OLED83C2PUA
  • OLED55G2PUA
  • OLED65G2PUA
  • OLED77G2PUA
  • OLED83G2PUA

1. If you haven’t done so already, you should update the firmware of your B2, C2 or G2 television set.

2. You should also update the firmware of your PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S console.

This is especially important for the PS5 consoles as support for Variable Refresh Rate was only added through a firmware update.

3. Make sure you are using the HDMI cable that came with your system to connect to your television set.

For the uninformed, the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition and Xbox Series X come with a HDMI 2.1 cable while the Xbox Series S came with a HDMI 2.0 cable.

You can also use other HDMI cables as long as it is HDMI 2.1 for the PS5 consoles and at least HDMI 2.0 for the Xbox Series consoles (although HDMI 2.1 is highly recommended for the Series X if you want to get the most out of its graphical features).

4. Once you are ready, turn on your television set and game console.

5. Make sure your TV is displaying the HDMI input source of your PS5, PS5 Digital Edition, Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S.

6. Press the gear icon to open the Game Dashboard.

If pressing the gear icon menu opened the regular TV settings menu instead, then you need to select General > Game Optimizer. You then need to set Game Optimizer to On.

You may also need to go to Picture > Select Mode in order to change the picture mode to Game Optimizer in order to use the Game Dashboard.

7. From the Game Dashboard, you should see whether or not VRR has been turned on.

8. If the dashboard shows that Variable Refresh Rate is currently turned off, then we recommend checking to see if you enabled VRR support on your game console.

For the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, go to the home screen menu and then select the gear icon on the top right side to head into settings. From there, you need to select Screen and Video > Video Output > VRR. Finally, set VRR to Automatic. You may also want to enable the Apply to Unsupported Games setting in order to force Variable Refresh Rate on games that don’t natively support it.

For the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, you need to go to Settings, which you can do by pressing the Xbox button to bring up the guide menu. From the guide menu, go to the “Profile & system” tab and then select Settings. In Settings, go to General > TV & display options > Video modes. Finally, make sure that the “Allow variable refresh rate” setting is enabled.

8. If the Game Dashboard still isn’t showing any that VRR has been enabled, then you need to select the Game Optimizer option located on the dashboard. In the Game Optimizer menu, make sure that the “VRR & Gsync” setting is enabled.

  • If you are playing a videogame, then most modern games come with a customizable heads-up display that you can change in order to decrease the chances of image retention.
  • Modern game consoles and media players should also have a setting that will automatically dim the screen after some time has passed due to the lack of activity.
  • If you can’t avoid having a static image displayed on the OLED screen, then we recommend that you either turn off your television set or switch to an entirely different image temporarily after around every hour or so of continuous usage.

  • In the Settings menu, select Sound.
  • Next, select Advanced Settings.
  • In the Advanced Settings menu, select Match Screen and Sound.
  • Once you get to the Match Screen and Sound, you can select TV Speaker Delay.

6. If you are getting audio delay when trying to watch a video from an external media player or playing a videogame from a game console, then you need to make sure that these are connected directly to your television.

If you are using a HDMI splitter and/or connecting to another external device instead of a direct connection, then these may introduce audio lag that otherwise wouldn’t occur.

7. If you are using wireless speakers, earphones, headphones or headsets, then it should be noted that you will get more lag when compared to wired listening devices or using the built-in speakers of your television.

To potentially reduce the audio lag, you can try moving your wireless listening device closer to your television. You can also avoid having any solid objects that may block the direct line of sight between your listening device and your TV. Finally, make sure that there aren’t any other wireless devices nearby as they can cause interference.

8. If you are using set-top box, media player and/or game console, then these input devices may also have audio settings where you hopefully change the audio timing in order to get better lip sync.

9. You can also try power cycling the external input device to see if the audio delay will go away.
