disable hdr on android tv?

by Minblud

I got a cheap 4k android tv and it's the latest native android tv version but I wanna disable hdr for Netflix and other apps. Also the tv is a android tv not using a stick or whatever.

If there is color space option in picture settings, change it to sRGB or DPI PC3 instead of Auto... That should help I guess a little.

In pretty sure that’s not a system level thing

I have a Shield and Nvidia just coded a way to disable HDR in the latest update, so if your OEM doesn’t make that functionality I don’t think that’s possible by default in Android TV

I have a U6G and HDR looks pretty good on it but I'm not using the apps on the TV. I have an Apple TV hooked up to it and a ChromeCast with Google TV. This TV needs a darker room for HDR it does not have a bright display. Hisense is known to have QC problems so yours may be a dud.

I'll have to check out the TV's builtin apps to see if there is a big difference from the streaming devices.

Just for my curiosity, why do you want to disable HDR?

If your device is not compatible, Netflix and other apps should not send HDR content to your TV.

Otherwise you can also change your subscription to have 1080p content only.

Guys the tv has android tv built in it so I can't switch the whole system resolution in the settings
