Okay, I've searched, I looked at videos...I messed with settings...

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?...Or why HDR is so amazing? I don't get it, AT ALL. I have an LG C9, so yes HDR is indeed a thing on my TV, apparently. I've turned HGiG on, off, same with HDR settings. Messed with other picture settings on TV that did absolutely nothing besides black levels and "color temperature". Pretty much everything looks the same to me...the settings on the Switch 2 are also confusing, I just did what the screen told me to do, make it so the sun on the right is gone, for me, that's 540. According to others, nope, that's too low? WAT?

Seriously, I'm so lost...even when I'm not using HDR, things look the same to me.

Not only that, Kirby Air Riders, is considered the worse looking game for HDR. WHY? The game looks freaking amazing to me on my TV.

What am I doing wrong here? What do I need to do on my TV AND Switch 2? Why are the instructions for the calibration wrong apparently if 540 is too low even though I just did what the stupid thing told me to do! lol

@Joeynator3000 I had trouble with HDR at first, but there was a setting on the Switch 2 that fixed the HDR for me. After the screen where you adjust the HDR to make one sun invisible, there should be a second screen that shows artwork for Mario Wonder. On this screen you can actually press Y to adjust the HDR (for some reason this setting is weirdly hidden) through a brightness slider that allows you to better calibrate HDR. On this screen you can also change the image by pressing X to ensure that the HDR is good across the majority of games. If you try this and it doesn't work, or if you have already tried this, I can't really be of much more help.

I hope this solves your issue!

Yeah I know about this screen as well, I still don't really get it, followed those instructions too. Went all the way to the left, clicked to the right 5 times...? shrugs
