Ahh ok. I have read about the green tint from wide angles. In my usecase, we sit right in front of the TV, hence this was not a concern for me and neither did I check this.
I will check from wide angles and let you know.

I dont have a TV, I am looking into a C4 and saw Rting's review where they mentioned Green tint if you looked at the tv from an angle. I was hoping it would only be early LG models hiccups and it looks like it indeed is an early model issue, even on AVSforums, peeps are saying its a one-off case.

Went to showroom few days ago. They had C4 on display. Told to put on full white screen on youtube & shown them green tint from side angles. Even with so much light & other TVs running, it was much prominent & kept on increasing as we moved towards side. Salesmen didn't have a word to defend that
oof really? then it's FUBAR for me, C3 out of stock for me here and G3/G4 out of budget ;~;

Experienced eye strain with few hrs in so I decided to measure flicker. I put my iphone on slo mo 240 fps and recorded gray screen in a full dark room.
HORRIBLE!
I've tried across all picture modes & no additional picture processing feature is turned on. Everything under clarity is set off. Though it doesn't make any noticeable difference on flicker with having them on either.
Can anyone test the same?
You can use this youtube video
Eager to see what other's experiencing.
I didn't see a single flicker measuring my IPS monitor, no wonder it's so much easier on my eyes despite prolong work hours.

folks with C4/G4, how do you get around LG's shitty ethernet port that's capped at 100mbps bandwidth? I saw on avsforums, that peeps are getting around this issue with a USB-to-Ethernet adapter that increases the bandwidth to 300-400mbps, more than enough for 4k remuxes.
Anyone using anything similar here? would love any recommendations for the same since my primary usecase would be remux streaming on jellyfin

I have a C4, and I tried a USB to gigabit ethernet port and got only around 250Mbps.
However, you loose the WOL feature with it.
As the TV doesn't passthrough any of the lossless audio formats, remuxes were a pointless usecase for me.
100Mbps is more than enough for streaming, so I switched back to using the default LAN. I use a fire stick 4k 3rd gen for my remux needs.

wake on lan will be useless for me, so if its just that, then its fine,
HDMI eARC wasnt working for you? did you try switching HDMI ports? thats a weird thing.
issue is, wifi is not strong enough in the area where my tv will be, so even the firetv stick will be useless since it doesnt have an ethernet port.
or did you mean this? https://www.amazon.in/Amazon-Ethernet-Adapter-Fire-Stick/dp/B01M19P4GJ I have a 4k max that I can use this with if this will work

eARC does send TrueHD to the receiver, but downmixes to DD+. It doesn't passthrough the audio to the receiver.
Ohh ok, although my wifi is fast enough at that location, I still use LAN for a more stable connection. Wonder how much more expensive the gigabit ports are
No, I use an actual fire stick for the remuxes.
ah damn, have you tried posting on AVSForums? but from what I'm getting if eARC is working as expected, its the receiver having issues and not the TV right? because I'll be investing in a sound setup too, and not getting Atmos/DTS is gonna suck big time,
not much, barely a 1-2$ lol, its pure costcutting bullshit by OEMs and they can get away with it, because we have no alternative,1
ah, via WiFi, gotcha.

ah damn! your wifi is good enough, but its not an option for me, so here's to hoping that the adapter would work

It better be, I spent enough on that
For excellent sound that won't break the bank, the 5 Star Award Winning Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 Bookshelf Speakers is the one to consider!
