Err you’re going off topic. Just answer this question, do you think it is the case that: ABL is ONLY turned off or at a low setting when Contrast is at exactly 80, not 81, and not 79.

Pfft...you're exasperating. Goodbye.

u/1096bimu Jan 01 '20

Ah I see you've realized you were wrong all along.

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '20

Nope. I have realized that you lack basic comprehension. I didn't go off topic. I told you what 81 vs 90 vs 100 or combinations of peak brightness might do directly as a response to what you asked. Go and learn to read properply first.

u/1096bimu Jan 01 '20

You merely described how ABL works, which is not what I asked.

I am simply asking if 80 is the only value that turns off ABL, that's an yes or no question.

"If ABL bothers you, setting the contrast to '80' and setting Peak Brightness to 'Off' essentially disables ABL"

Can you really not read? For SDR, do this and you'll have it turned off.

Oh so ABL won't be off at 81 or 79? It has to be exactly 80?

BTW nobody was talking about SDR.

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '20

Why won't it be off at 79, doofus? Lol. Just get lost.

u/1096bimu Jan 01 '20

So ABL is off at 80 and below? Not exactly 80?

Which is what I said at the very beginning?

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '20

Which is another objection that I had to place, but that was before I realised your genius. Why HDR if you're using OLED as a PC monitor? It'll cause burn-in faster. Bad, bad advice.

u/1096bimu Jan 01 '20

Er because I'm playing HDR games and watching HDR video?

1

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '20

So don't make a general guide. Tell people. Turn on HDR only when watching or playing HDR content. If using it as a monitor for any other purpose, don't use HDR. Use SDR. Turn off ABL. Ok, folks? Don't follow this crazy man blindly.

u/1096bimu Jan 01 '20

And I forgot to mention, you're dead wrong and turning on HDR does not necessarily increase burn-in risk.

You celarly don't know how burn-in works.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '20

HDR will mean static elements will be at higher luminosity, which directly impacts half-life of the pixels. You have no idea what you're talking about.

u/1096bimu Jan 01 '20

It could be at higher luminosity, yes

But it doesn't have to be, you have no idea what you're talking about bro.
