I have a 43" UJ6300 LG UHD TV, and a 150Mbps fiber circuit from Telus.   It works very well, and I am satisfied with most features and picture quality.  My one complaint may be a slightly dimmer overall picture to comparable TV's.  

Probably because I was too lazy to thoroughly read the manual I did not fully understand the meaning of all of the features.  I purchased a Roku Streaming Stick 4K+,  and noticed an immediate improvement in picture quality.  The Roku Stick I bought was mostly to enjoy sports subscriptions which were unavailable on WebOS. 

I noticed that my Roku Stick immediately switches  my "Picture Mode" to "HDR Effect" on my LG UJ6300.  I falsely thought HDR Effect was just that, an effect, not actual HDR.  I noticed my picture quality was improved even when the Roku Stick was turned off, which seemed impossible.    Then I realized my TV was still set to HDR Effect,  and that is what is improving picture quality.  HDR Effect I believe is HDR10, which my Roku Stick uses.  Roku also supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision programming.  

 

I learned that HDR Effect is by far the best setting for most programs broadcast today, as HDR10 has as far as I can see become the de facto standard for High Dynamic Range TV's.  Try watching  golf, football, baseball, it all looks best on HDR Effect.

      Digital Video Effect (DVE) window on topof main window
      By RichardD
      Hi,
      My problem if finding out how to pop iup a small (DVE) window somewhere over the main window.
        For example.   When HDMI-1 is selected, I want to display HDMI-2 in a small window somewhere on top of the original (HDMI-1) screen.
      is anyone able to tell me if the SDK support this function?   I would ideally like to control it via a Rasberry Pi.
      Thanks in advance

      LG 49UH6030 - HDR effect setting
      By Jay Joe
      Is the HDR effect picture mode setting HDR upscaling? 
      The HDR setting adjusts from "Low" "Medium" "and "High".  But when the movie or game is HDR already this setting show Vivid, Standard..........and so on.
      What is the differences of this HDR effect compared to if the video display was already being broadcasted in HDR itself?
