Mainly two reasons for the limited - full - limited chain.

I use the LG C8 as a secondary screen, so I couldn't care less if this messes up levels outside of madVR. All that stuff is done on my primary monitor.


1. My panel is a bit darker and also greener towards the left side and I'm using a shader to somewhat rectify this.
With this chain, video levels above 235 aren't clipped so the shader can go above 235. With a full-full-full chain white would already be maxed out.
Also in rare cases (content with elevated blacks) I can set madVR levels a little bit below 16 which again with a full-full-full chain you can't.


2. This is just a pure assumption but since most devices for video playback will require the TV to be set to limited, I'm just assuming that if there is a difference (which I haven't tested) it will be limited causing less trouble with this TV.
