Which media player software do you use? I recommend MPC-HC with built-in LAV filters, for simplicity. If you don't see LAV Video used during playback, that could be part of your problem.

Either Technicolor Expert mode should be fine for SDR/HDR. For Dolby Vision it will say "Cinema (User)". Another thing to keep in mind: If you use the LG in PC mode to get 4:4:4, that only applies to 60Hz.
Hey man, cool. I got the bitdepth to auto and tried send metadata still no HDR text on tv.

mpc-hc MadVR only for video. Why would I need the LAV Video though is what I'm wondering about, this is completely unknown to me? Should I install LAV Video too and why do I need it??

Yeah this might be the reason!

I dunno should I change from PC mode? I run 23hz now only for movies I thought I was only gonna do 60hz but since lagg now gone and colors look nice I will do 23hz.

I switched from technicolor bright to technicolor expert as suggested and chose some settings in this one I think look very good (with the 3d lut I have in original guide for smoother 4k image).

Do you use 3dlut I see you also have the same screen if you could upload yours so I can see if it looks as good as mine?
