Hey all. Treated myself to the G1 55inch LG and a PS5 this weekend. Gotta say the TV is stunning. Picture is amazing. I spent a while working out whether to get the G or the C1 but I wanted a slightly brighter TV so went with the G. Does seem a bit of a rip off that it doesn't come with a decent stand but I got a sanus stand.

Previous TV was a 49" older Sony Bravia so thats now going on my bedroom haha.

My son had a quick go on ratchet and clank and the graphics are amazing, gorgeous colours.

Well you did buy a flagship TV designed to be used on the wall as a minimalist look

For 2grand it should come with a stand.

Depending on how old the AVR is you will either have ARC or eARC - the TV takes the sound output from each HDMI and sends it to the AVR.

eARC is better as it can deal with lossless audio.

But there not 2.1 ports. With the ps5 plugged into the avr I don't get the full rgb or whatever it says in the video settings. Plugged straight into the TV I do. Because there 2.1 HDMI.

No, but very few receivers have more than one HDMI 2.1 input.

That's why most people use the new consoles (or PC) directly in to the TV.

Things like Sky Q, Blu-ray players etc can go in to the AVR as they only need HDMI 2.0. Nintendo Switch only needs 1.4a

Yeah that's how I have it. Doesnt seem to matter, everything works as it should.

I do have 1 anoying problem though. In finding it hard to actually get my virgin to come through the TV. The sound is there but the actual picture isn't. I've managed to find it a few times by turning stuff off and on but it's random. Don't understand why it doesn't work straight away. I have the avr on cbl/sat which is what the virgin box is plugged in.
