i wouldn't recommend watching all TV in game mode on a 4k Tv

No, but as I said it tends to turn off all the processing so you can see immediately what effect it has on motion and judder.

For the record I have an 'Expert bright mode' that I use for daytime/lights on TV and movie watching, 'Expert dark for lights off completely and a game mode for Consoles and PC gaming.

I recently had a cable cause juddering. I couldn't run my display at UHD@60Hz without juddering. Swapping the cable fixed the issue. The juddering was constantly reproducible. The situation is a bit more complex than than "it either works or doesn't".

Fair enough, but the OPs brother wasn't even feeding the TV a 4k signal.

And this is the Crux of it.
I should just get over it, but things like this really wind me up.

Just spoke to my brother...
They have now have offered to replace the TV, as they believe it has a fault, and just in case, have offered him a high speed cable for a tenner.

I will pay him a visit and check it over.
