How risky is playing subtitles with all videos on OLED? I like watching everything with subtitles but I have read that subtitles can really aggravate the burn ins.

 

 

 

Dudes who are worried about burn ins need to relax.. like subtitles kuch bhi.. remember those are not static and keeps changing.. thats the logic you need to apply for burn-in in general.. Been a year I got mine and have no issues.. 

 

U can watch cricket also.. you are not watching ONLY cricket all the time is what matters..

 

Just don't use it for lot of DTH stuff on OLED not saying bcos of Burn in but DTH looks shite anyway on such display.. 4K OTT, Movies, Gaming should be the usual stuff to make the most of it..

Same. No issues whatsoever with both the C9s I have at home. Over 3.5k hours each watched on both

Yikes that sucks. Mine isn’t placed next to a window. But I usually play in a bright environment…I mean if it gets even a bit dark at any time of the day , I immediately turn on the lights Same during night as well.

 

So even with a tubelight on in the room, it’ll look sh*t?

My tubelight is directly opposite to the TV, it's a LED one but it sits really high on the wall, while the OLED is on the table, i lose a bit of immersion because of it nothing major, but my room is small, i guess if you use the TV in a hall then you might have multiple tubelights ?

I have three lighting modes, one tubelight helps for watching sports, two power saver mid level light helps for gaming without straining eyes, third low power white light which i use for single player immersive games, the oled blacks make you really engrossed in free roam worlds like jedi fallen order, started kingdoms of amalor re-reckoning today, the oled makes the graphics look so good. Which QN90A should do as well though, not sure about other LCDs.

1080i football matches look poor when coverage is on telecast camera. Close up looks decent, idk if i should update my airtel dth box, are the new boxes capable of upscaling to 4k ? mine is the first batch HD Airtel box.

I'll be sticking to OTT content n gaming only on my OLED. Moving the DTH and old Tv to another room.

Ya but in my case the tub light and tv are very far apart and do not come in line of sight of each other. Which are these mid level power saver saver lights you talk about? Name please  

 

Also bruh , just use Hotstar for football matches lol and Sony liv for UCL matches. Why watch it on DTH if it’s only 1080i res.

Our area has sh*t internet and since hathway merged with jio and still not willing to submit it's operations to jio we are stuck with 50 Mbps net that too keeps turning off every now and then so no OTT. The only other ISP is mtnl who had it's landline cables stolen at their junction a couple of months back and now the entire area doesn't even have functioning landline phones. So net is probably out too. They said they don't have staff because of pandemic Lel.

Though I'm glad i switched from mtnl to hathway a couple of years back.

I don't have the box of the bulb but i think the other one i have is of similar power it's 14W. The model i found on amazon is 16W and i saw one which was 20W also. So check at HW store and then buy the one you like. You can try the CFL option if you want but i wanted a lightweight bulb so i went with a LED Bulb.

Hotstar and sony liv matches are a minute behind. People in whatsapp groups are already celebrating goal before the move has even started on hotstar. This is why I prefer dth for football or even cricket matches which are a ball behind on streams lol.

Buy this without thinking.

Don't cover it with anything, just give it a soft wipe once a week or every 2 weeks.

Do you recommend using 70% Isopropyal alcohol with this cloth?

Absolutely not.

Just a spritz of water and that's it.

Don't use anything else.

I believe Distilled Water is better atleast that's what everyone mentions.

Doesn't matter unless the tap water is really hard and full of salts.
