MSI2017 40 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Hi all, I'm the proud owner of a new LG OLED which looks asbolutely stunning. Since I do plan to keep using it for quite long I am quite concerned about burn-in. I have all the built-in protection enabled but when watching HDR content on emby the subtitles are always blinding me at full brightness. The OLED of my friend already had burn-in there after two years. Therefore it would be pretty cool if I could sett the subtiltes to be a bit dimmer when watching HDR content. Thanks for the awesome app! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beav 11 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I'm not that worried about burn in. However being able to tweak the subtitles would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the awesome app! What Client ? if you are using FireTV/AndroidTV - then there is already many options in the 'Playback/Subtitle' config to display White/Yellow or Grey subtitles and also brightness of Normal/Dim/Dimmer ... For my LG OLED via the Shield - I have it set to White/Dim and they effectively show as Grey. Dimmer is a little too dark for non HDR content.

Yeah I hoped that others would also think its a good idea, I might be a touch too carefull with my OLED but subtitle burn-in happens quickly and the things are super expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunna 1 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) I also feel the subtitels can be a bit bright while wathing HDR content. Can´t find any settings to change it. Edited August 28, 2022 by Lunna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37068 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 There will be a light gray option in the next update to the app. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have transparency to be honest, Grey would still drive the white pixels quite hard en and would barely activate the rest. Having it be like 75% transparent would mean those pixels match the rest of the panel a bit more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's not it will be there in the next app update, but the current release isn't that old so it should be there already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just checked to be sure, but only background transparency is an option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcornilescu 1 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 It's not as much as it burns the OLED (which it does, at least on my older LG OLED) but it burns my EYES. Need to be able to set less bright fonts and many more background colors and brightness levels. Inherently CC is high contrast, so with HDR needs to be toned down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraszer 4 Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 It would be great to be able to lower subtitles and UI brightness in settings. UI is very bright on full TV brightness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
