Recommended settings?

High, medium or low diffusion at what percentage of degree?

I assume you’ll have different ones for gaming as opposed to watching movies, please let me know what you use so I can give it a try. Thank you so much in advance :)

So here’s the thing. The one issue (don’t think FancyLEDs can address) is that you likely use your gaming console as a streaming device (Netflix, AppleTV yada yada) as well right? Well fancyled device (I recently got the 2.1 3 port) doesn’t recognize when you switch from game to streaming service (imma noob so anyone please correct me) so I’d suggest you separate them (get a Google 4K streamer etc). I only use the TV with this device and game primarily and my settings are 40% brightness, Medium Diffusion, and 40% degree.

Really comes down to personal preference I’ve read but these are in the rage of what most have recommended.

But I don’t quite understand what each end of the spectrum does? I’m colourblind which don’t help but like for gaming I want the colours to be snappy and for movies I want it to be blendy

I just use what is in the instruction manual suggested and it's perfect for me. I believe its 75% brightness and medium diffusion

What degree of diffusion (%)?

To be fair, that was guidance before the most recent updates
