TCL 43S405 as Geek Squad replacement, need help with settings
Hello. This is a very informative site. So next week I am getting this TV as a replacement for a faulty Toshiba, the panel is shot after just 1.5 years. I’ve researched the TCL here and other sites but I’m a little fuzzy on the 4:4:4 thing and expert picture settings, maybe more. I will indeed be connecting a laptop, as well as a blu-ray player and perhaps my own Roku device that I’ve used on the Toshiba. Can I somehow get the 4:4:4 for all of them or just the PC? What settings would I use? Also, would it be beneficial to only do the first part of expert picture settings, just the gamma and noise reduction off without doing the WB and color space calibration? After reading about the ROKU app adjustments causing permanent damage and voiding warranty I want to stay clear of that issue. I’d really appreciate any input here. Thank you.

Hey there. ‘Filmmaker Mode’ and ‘Cinema’ are the same in regular HDR, but we chose cinema for consistency since that’s what we typically go with. We don’t actually choose anything for Dolby Vision since we don’t currently test DV. We just like to point out that ‘Filmmaker’ is the most accurate in that mode without needing changes, since there is no normal ‘Cinema’ setting in DV. Thanks for reaching out and I hope that helps.
