Latest upgrade spoils auto vertical

That’s weird, so in the old version, it looks good and you didn’t move the projector and now you get that?

Did you use 4 corner or manual keystone before?

Never as I keep my projector straight facing the wall. Am going to try a reset nd will let u guys know

Don’t reset it, try recalibrating it instead

Please perform a calibration:

Just did. It doesn’t remember the settings after a restart so I just switched auto keystone off set it to manual correction and this time it remembers the settings after a restart

Thank you for your prompt reply.
I had already reset it and calibrated it (never had to calibrate before )
Anyway image is not as skewed anymore though could be better though apps had to be reloaded again and some like disney are not working now.

Netflix and Amazon prime I loaded versions I could see.

Dear philips engineering …I’m not really satisfied with the pictures settings on my white wall.the colours are not deep and vivid.
Please advise suggestion on what all level do I need to set my brightess,contrast,saturation,sharpness.

Still left side is higher than the right

Hi @macsan0123 these don’t seem to be software issues. In the first picture after recalibration the image looks higher on the left side, in the 2nd pic on the right side. I think you should carefully check where your projector is sitting. It’s common for it to be a few mm higher on one side, or slightly turned to left or right side. Remember that a small variation on the projector will get magnified many times on the wall. If finding the perfect placement is proving challenging, you can always use the 4-/5-corner correction feature.

Regarding picture settings, the defaults, specially in Cinema mode, are tuned for natural colours (rather than artificially Vivid). Actually I personally reduce the saturation even more to 45% for viewing in totally dark rooms.

But of course this is a matter of taste so please feel free to increase the Saturation to your liking. You may also find this post useful: https://community.philipsprojection.com/t/info-how-to-improve-internal-video-picture-quality/3661?u=philipsengineering

Appreciate the quick responses …
My issue was before this upgrade I never had to calibrate .

After this upgrade I had to and I calibrated using the leveller.

Im really not a fan of manual correction.

Anyway I now understood what you are saying .
Though I feel my pico is facing the wall straight ahead I had to slightly tilt it to get the rectangle to look better.
Plus minus some degrees it anyway should give a straight picture don’t u think ?

This was meant to be feedback so that we can make vertical correction perfect .
See if your team can work on it.

By the way is there no working disney in aptoide ?
This one is giving me region issues …

Also isn’t the fan a little louder on normal mode ?

Also any suggestions on picture settings for daytime (curtains shut ) viewing
Any for nightime partial lamplight viewing ?
Any for total darkness ?

By the way what are the default setings ?

Till then I will check advanced settings as suggested too.

Thanks

I literally dispair.

Hi @macsan0123 please see the following article:

I never updated anything except for the software
To fix the crazy image post new update I reset and then calibrated for the first time .
I lost the netflix that came with this upgrade so I loaded from aptoide .I did not update.
So u want me to follow instruction here n dow load frm apk?

I lost my disney so I loaded the only one there and now it says incorrect region and doesn’t work .
What do I do about that ?

Again lesson learnt don’t upgrade if not facing any problem.
The .03 upgrade was the best

Hi @macsan0123 please check the article, it describes how to get back the working version of Netflix.

Regarding Disney+ app, we don’t preload it from factory, so we’re unable to offer support for it.

Hi
What are the steps in connecting my ipad mini via airplay to my pico ?

Hi @macsan0123 there are no special steps to perform. Just connect both your iPad and the projector to the same WiFi network. Then the projector should appear on your iPad as an AirPlay destination.

You may have to start the AirPlay app from the quick-settings icon on the home screen, if you’ve never done so before. Afterwards it’ll always stay enabled.
