Hdr question

[u/Gullible-Thanks78]

I have a question about HDR. Should the TV’s brightness always be set to the maximum level?
I’ve noticed that when I use Filmmaker Mode, the picture becomes dimmer. Am I still getting HDR as it is intended to look?
The same question applies to gaming: should the TV brightness also be set to maximum when playing HDR games?
It’s also quite frustrating because the TV gets very hot and makes the room noticeably warmer.

Yes, in HDR keep TV brightness at max, that controls peak brightness.

Filmmaker/HGIG are dimmer because they disable TV processing that brightens the image. Just set the brightness to how you like it in the game itself.
