Anyone encounters on their x90j whereby despite setting the Pic Setting to Custom, while playing ie YouTube, Disney+, Hulu, it'll auto switch to Standard or Vivid for different titles?

Am having this prob and it's annoying as I need to adjust every time...

Previously I using a HDMI switch to connect astro, tvbox the go thru soundbar to my old toshiba TV
and one direct HDMI from my blueray player

Now since I have 4 HDMI port, I would like to stop using HDMI switch
HDMI 1 - tvbox
HDMI 2 - astro
HDMI 3 - blueray
HDMI 4 reservce

the seller recommend me to connect opitcal cable from tv to soundbar

My question is will my TV need to be on if I would like to listen to CD via soundbar or standby mode the sound will come out from soundbar?

I have a Sony x85j connected via earc hdmi cable to HTS 350 soundbar . Sadly, after a few seconds, the sound keeps getting disconnected . All necessary troubleshooting done, to no avail.
Even connected the sound via bluetooth between the 2 devices, same issue.
Any tips?

Try optical cable

Yesterday I got a firmware update, that fixes this problem with the mkv file, ie the said mkv file can be played now.

I hope Sony also fixes the poor WiFi connection problem with this upgrade. As this happens only intermittently I need to test longer time to find out if it does any improvement on the WiFi.

My X85J connected to 5ghz WiFi in which the AX20 router is placed on upper floor about approx 46' away. I've no issue streaming DV Netflix and it's stable

So your 5ghz and 2.4ghz on different SSID ?

Because I configured the 5G and 2.4G same SSID, I cannot tell if it is connected via 5G or 2.4G. Maybe I split it and see if the problem is from which frequency.

Yup split just for my office laptop as is a bit old

I split it and notice my 5G has only 2 bar, whereas the 2.4G has 3 bar. Only connection to 2.4G is successful. The 5G cannot never succeed.

I guess your 5G is much less wall and obstacles. My 5G is upstair - downstairs. Maybe the signal is less efficient for vertical distance.

Change to better router? 🤔

The technician at SS2 (same row with sportstoto) claimed the problem with the panel but can be repair at about $540. Since I’m not familiar what can be the known issue with panels that’s still repairable? Have ask him but he hasn’t reply

Lastly will the picture quality be affected after the repair?

Thanks

The infamous "black screen of death" which happened quite a lot in Sony recent years TV  sweat.gif

if you dig back previous pages can find some.

If still within warranty period (factory + retailers) , best go claim.

Happened to me less than 3 yrs old without extended warranty

true, happened to my 55X7500H tv, black screen after 2.5 years.
And i happened to purchase 55X7500K last week for rm1999. Hope will last long for this.

Respect 🫡 still going back to Sony but I’ve caged mine to Toshiba since good experience hope mine last as well

For my 65” the technician says repair cost equivalent to couple of K hence forget it
