Hi, did you find a solution to this? I’m also having problem with hdr movies gets a green tint when playing on my htpc with a Nvidia 1060 as graphic card.

Hi, did you find a solution to this? I’m also having problem with hdr movies gets a green tint when playing on my htpc with a Nvidia 1060 as graphic card.

Is there a release notes for the firmware? I downloaded the firmware but couldn't find one. I was curious if the firmware was just to address the dynamic iris issue. I've had random drops outs like others so wondered if this can be addressed.



By the way, I noticed there are android and google references in the zip file. Does this projector run Android/Linux?

What settings are people using with the Apple TV 4k? 4k HDR? With my Oled I set it to 4k SDR/match frame/match dynamic range. The ht3550 doesn’t kick in the HDR with these settings? Thoughts?



Also, I loaded the new firmware and Dynamic Iris doesn’t seem to have any effect when changed to any option. Anybody else? Just got the projector yesterday so I’m not sure how this setting originally behaved before the new firmware. Well, only what I’ve seen on YouTube reviews.

Anyone seen this? Look at the top blue, I'm seeing random blue lines

Mine is flickering a lot but only happens when I'm watching the NBA Games.

Attached is a video showing mine flickering a lot, also with the new firmware installed.

I also changed from the new iris settings from Low, Medium, High and also Off, and nothing change.

I'll be returning mine.

Do you mean the flash photography? You are returning your $1500 projector due to flash photography in the NBA Finals?

Here's a highlight video and the flashes look just the same as in your video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbn1oGhLVvQ

I understand, but I never had that issue in my BenQ HT2150ST that I had before and I watched those games everyday on it.now I don't feel comfortable watching because the issue.

Thanks

Maybe there were more flashes than usual because it was the first quarter of the first game of the NBA Finals? This seems to be a complaint about the source material more than the projector. But send it back if you're not happy with it. But from the video you posted it does not seem to be a projector issue to me.

If those are really camera flashes, then should be seen in another TV's right.

I'll give a try before request the return.

I have two more TV in my house, I'll watch and record the same part of the game in all Tvs, if is that right should be the same issue there.

I'll post the results here, next game is tomorrow.

Thanks

As above! Although TBH mine is running very well - but will be nice to see the back of the split screen and the iris settings are a decent bonus,
Absolutely no regrets re my purchase - for the price it's a great bit of kit

Can’t see your pics.

Let me try again

There is nothing wrong with the projector. That movie is loaded with lens flares from the director.

Turn off "Night Light" in display settings.

Thanks for the suggestion but that is off. But when I tried “play hdr games and apps” I get the same green picture. Attached an example. I’m using the NVIDIA 385.28 driver, old but should be stable for both hdr and 3D according to this
I’ll have to google it.

So this is normal to see?

I was able to obtain some release notes on the 1.01 firmware from Benq.

1.       Optimizing DCI-P3 color table
2.       Improving Dynamic Iris by adding low/middle/high options
3.       Improving the low-frequency volume performance by adding HDMI Equalizer option
4.       Resolving the bug that some units cannot store the installation memory (ceiling or table type setup)

That number 3 item is curious, and I see there is an HDMI equalizer setting now in the menu. I've heard of HDMI equalizers being used in extenders, repeaters and active cables but not in display devices. Hopefully it's something that improves connections on weak HDMI signals, I'm not exactly sure what low frequency volume performance means and how that setting which can be switched between Auto and about 30 specific levels helps with that.

Anyone care to share what Apple TV 4k video settings you are using? 4k HDR? 4k SDR?

I’m not sure if your comment is serious? At it’s price the HT3550 has better contrast and color than any of it’s 4K competition. I would easily recommend the HT3550 over any similarly priced 4K projector if image quality is the primary concern. The HT3550 uses some fairly sophisticated all glass optics for such an affordable projector. The HT3550’s performance is largely tied to the use of those optics (go back and look at last years 4K DLPs and you’ll see how far color/contrast performance has come). But there are limits to what you can achieve at such a budget price and the CA the HT3550 exhibits is evidence of that.
If someone offered something close to what the BenQ is offering at this price with absolutely perfect optics (doubtful that would be possible as even $5000 projectors struggle with optics but still) then I would recommend that. But the competition isn’t even close. Personally, I don’t find the CA egregious enough of an issue to disregard all the things the HT3550 does right.

Look, I’ve been around the forum a LONG time. I’ve owned and been around a lot of displays from CRT through the various rear projection techs all the way through LCD/Plasma and now front projection. I’ve learned that all displays— all products— have their pros and cons. If you go looking for things to complain about chances are you’ll find them. We evaluate a display’s performance based on test patterns but at the end of the day we don’t WATCH test patterns. It’s important to weigh test results with real life performance. Subacabra was sure his projector had no CA— until he went looking for it. He has never seen it in actual content and it hasn’t impacted his enjoyment of the projector’s image quality. At what point is that thing we’re picking at a nit? Again, I’m not saying anyone should accept something they find bothersome. But if you don’t notice it unless you have a test pattern up with your nose pressed against the screen looking for it is it really an issue?

The problem is though, if those CA problems were not there, you don't realise how much BETTER the image would be. That's why people buy projectors with good optics, like the LK models and the more expensive Sony's and now this new Epson 6050.

Let's just keep this within the realms of reality eh
