This product contains a document to help you get a better HDR picture and understand picture controls on TCL C74 series LED LCD TVs. All options are available in user menus - no need to access service or any hidden menu. The calibration was performed on the 55C745 TV.

The document explains:

1. HDR picture settings that can be used for watching movies in Ultra HD 4K resolution with HDR and

2. HDR picture settings for playing games where the screen needs to be responsive

In both cases, calibration was done for HDMI limited range 4:2:2 YPrPb (component) signal, BT.2020 color space, SMPTE ST.2084 EOTF, HDR-10 and white point target D65. Dolby Vision and HDR10+ modes were also checked and recommendations are given in this document.

For information only, 2-point white balance values obtained on my unit for HDR10/10+/HLG Movie and Game modes are inside this document.

Disclaimer:

Settings are for reference only. There is no guarantee that they will give you the best picture which is in line with industry standards and suitable for your viewing environment (especially white balance, gamma and color management system settings that vary from unit to unit). If you want a guaranteed calibrated picture, hire a professional TV calibrator (for example with ISF certificate, more info at https://www.imagingscience.com).

The calibration was done on the TV with Google TV interface (Android TV 11) with software version V8-T615T03-LF1V562.000747.

Settings also apply to other variants and screen sizes of TCL's C74 series.
