How do I get rid of the terrible soap effect on Beovision 8-40? Game mode helps, but it still are there. Any other things you can do?

hehe, no. Always when I am buy new technical stuff I got to try more things. Right now I considering to but another tv, if I can get rid of the soap effect and the masterlink does not work. :) 

The soap effect is called motionplus on Samsung tv.

The soap effect completely destroys a good picture. I cannot stand looking at the news or a film, where it looks like they are everybody dancing. I can completely reject a tv, if I cannot turn off the soap effect.

Seems that I missed something there.

Never noticed that on my previous 8-40.

But maybe that is just me ;-)

There is a tv - and there is a BV

Nor me.

I have tried to adjust the GAME MODE but I can’t work out how to change the setting ... quite strange:

I guess hat the op is experiencing this on all sources and thought that the game mode could help.

I never used game mode on my 8-40.

Actually I think, that the picture is quite well.

I only replaced it to get a bigger and never (BSys4-based) tv....

....not because I disliked it.

Thanks Aleyn

FYI mine was set to AUTO

Do you know what determines which mode it is in ?

My AUTO seems to always default to GAME MODE regardless of source and content ...

I suggest you to turn off GAME and FILM MODE

Game mode is always on. Helps a bit. Is there a film mode on a bv8-40? Where?

Ok here we go again. Idea

 

- Press the MENU button on the Beo4 remote control to get into the ‘Setup Menu’.

- Place the cursor on OPTIONS. Press RED button and within 3 seconds press GO.

- Turn off FILM MODE in the adjustments menu!

Thank you! Very interesseting. Looking very much forward to try that after the weekend.

Are there something like this on a bv11? My bv11 are always on monitor mode, but I think the picture is a bit unsharp.

Thank you, I think it worked to take off the film mode. I have tested it today. :)

Kind of ironic that the film mode makes the TV so much less film like isn't it?

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus. Sad
