so if you've been following the channel for a while now you know that i'm really big on creating
an immersive experience whether i'm gaming or watching tv shows or watching movies i generally
like to have dynamic lighting syncing up with my tv the immersion strip and light bars combo
model h605b is what i'm currently using and will be focusing on for this particular video
but i want to emphasize that most of the concepts that we'll discuss
can be applied to any of the emerging backlight models so if you're someone
that's currently using or you're planning on picking up immersion products i've put
together a few tips and tricks to assist in achieving better color accuracy
let's first take a look at the saturation setting inside the gobi home app for best results resist
the urge to crank saturation above anything more than roughly 30 percent you can see here that if
we crank saturation all the way up to 100 the colors are far too exaggerated and don't even
remotely resemble what's being displayed however if we bring saturation too far down then we get
some really washed out looking colors that sort of all blend together but when dialing
in the saturation to roughly 15 percent give or take the colors start to look a lot more in
line with the image and that tv bleed effect that we're going for starts to look a lot more natural
moving down to white balance which is now available on later models via an update this is a
much appreciated edition that allows you to tweak and adjust whether the immersion favors blues or
reds more so than the other by default i noticed that the white balance is cranked up to about 60
percent which causes the immersion to push heavy reds if we slide the white balance all the way to
the right you can immediately see it completely destroys accuracy on the flip side if we slide
that down all the way to the left then similar to saturation at zero the result is very washed out
colors for the most part i personally like to set white balance so that it favors blues over reds
keeping that round dial just after the reset text in this way red isn't too overpowering considering
that this kit seems especially keen on relying on red to represent a majority of the colors
additionally i prefer to play games and watch movies with the reactive settings set to calm
versus dynamic for slightly smoother color transitions and in general for everyday use
i keep brightness between 60 and 70 percent though for the purposes of this video i've increased
brightness to 100 and last but not least this tip is more unconventional because it involves
going beyond the scope of the Govee home app but i encourage you guys to at least give it a shot if
you've tweaked all the settings inside the app as much as possible and you still aren't happy with
the accuracy we're actually going to jump inside the white balance setting within the tv itself
every tv is going to be a little bit different depending on the make and display technology
so be mindful of that as we take a look now you can see here that i currently have my tv
set to a color temperature of Warm 45. i generally keep this setting between Warm 40 and 45
because i think that it provides a more natural looking image and it's a lot easier on my eyes
especially in the late hour now if we bring the color temperature all the way up to the complete
opposite spectrum until we hit cold 50 mind you keeping all settings consistent inside the
gobi home app just look at what that does to the color accuracy the colors are now nowhere near as
accurate as they were just a minute ago so guys depending on your tv and your setup it may not
be enough to simply adjust saturation and white balance within the app in order to achieve the
best results you may want to look into tweaking a few general settings within the tv itself and you
might even notice some change for the better with adjusting pixel or screen brightness
as well but before you go in to tweak anything make sure to take note of your own personalized
settings in the event that you want to fall back on anything before i wrap this one up here is a
snapshot of the primary settings discussed in a side-by-side view for better comparison tv white
balance remains consistent across the board at warm 45 and brightness within the app is set to
100 for all four images the lower right image is showcasing the ideal Govee i app settings
that we just discussed with the exception of white balance which is moved all the way to the far left
towards blue inside of the app on the lower left we also have the same Govee settings but white
balance is moved all the way to the far right towards red the upper right image is showing white
balance at the ideal setting but saturation within the app has been moved all the way over to 100
and finally the top left image has all ideal settings in place saturation roughly 15 app white
balance set just after the reset text and again tv white balance remains at Warm 45 as with all other
images and you can see that the top left image out of the four is given the best color representation
