Format support covers 4K HDR, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X for movie playback, plus hi-res audio to 192kHz/24-bit. Backing up these AV credentials is the Pro 4K HDR’s flexibility – from running a multiroom 4K system to letting users customise its GUI, this is a machine with a can-do attitude. Apple TV is a digital media player and microconsole developed and sold by Apple Inc. It is a small network appliance and entertainment device that can receive digital data for visual and audio content such as music, video, video games, or the screen display of certain other devices, and play it on a connected television set or other video display. Apple TV is an HDMI-compliant source device.

1080P HD video has become the past, now the era of 4K has arrived. However, not all computers can support the smooth playback of 4K video, not all players can perfectly play 4K video. There are altogether two methods to play 4K ultra high definition videos on Mac.

Preparations you need to do:

  • Mac OS X 10.8 -10.14
  • Intel Core i5 or above
  • Internal or external Blu-ray drive

To watch this particular format, people has found out a simple and cost-effective solution - convert 4K videos. The advantages of converting 4K videos are obvious, such as saving considerable storage space, converting them to almost any video format for free playback better compatible with popular devices (iPhone, iPad, etc.), media players, and video editing software. However, one major problem is that this method could result in the damage of the original video and audio as well as lowering its pixels.

Solution 2: Choose a Media Player that supports 4K Videos

Although 4K videos are being distributed more than ever as it becomes more widely and easily available to people, there is still few media players currently on the market that can support 4K resolution.

Step 1. Find the Right Mac

In Apple's official website, you can find that there’s only one Mac can support 4K videos’ playback - iMac 27-inch with Retina 5K display. It has four times as many pixels (14.7 million pixels) as the standard 27-inch iMac display, and 4K resolution only has 8.8 million pixels. Therefore, with its latest OS - Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10, this Mac can totally play 4K video to let users see everything on their desktops with stunning clarity.

Step 2. Use the Right 4K Player

Perform an Internet search for '4K video Player' to obtain a list of apps capable of playing 4K Video. Which 4K Video Player you choose will depend largely on your budget. Although some freeware apps available claimed that they can do whatever the commercial apps can, it’s been proved by a lot of people that the proprietary, commercial apps available will almost invariably be the most effective. Here is a recommended excellent player that can play 4K Videos perfectly - Macgo Mac Blu-ray Player Pro. Lucky pants bingo.

Samsung is a world leader in the area of the display and their TVs are known for their excellent picture quality. However, by tweaking the picture settings, you can enhance your viewing experience to the optimum level. In this guide, I’ll be describing the best picture settings for Samsung 4K and UHD TV with LED and QLED screen. Besides, we’ll also walk you through the steps to tune the best Samsung TV settings for gaming.

Being a tech enthusiast, I tend to explore all available settings whenever I purchase a new smartphone, TV, or computer and tune them to my preference. When I got a 55-inch 4K QLED TV (QA55Q60RAKXLL) from Samsung, the first thing I did was to set up the picture settings for the best possible experience.

Please note that the best picture settings for your Samsung TV may differ depending on the room lighting conditions of your room. For instance, If you watch TV in a bright room with natural or artificial light, you need to keep the levels of brightness, contrast, sharpness, color, and backlight on the higher sight. However, if your TV is in a dark room, you should keep the brightness, color, and sharpness below 50% for better picture quality.

Below, you’ll find the best picture settings for the Samsung 4K UHD TV, SUHD TV, and QLED TV.

Samsung TV Picture Modes

When it comes to the number of preset picture modes found on a Samsung Smart TV, they are not as many as present on LG TVs. You should also check out our recommendations about the best picture settings for LG 4K UHD, OLED, and NanoCell TV. On the Samsung TV, you would find only four picture modes tuned by the manufacturer.

  • Dynamic: If your TV is placed in a room with bright or natural light, you’ll need heightened levels of brightness, contrast, colors, and sharpness. When your Samsung TV is in dynamic mode, it will have a bright and vivid picture, too much saturation, and unbalanced black levels. If the Dynamic mode is enabled, you may experience eye fatigue while watching TV in low light conditions. It consumes more electricity than all other picture modes.
  • Standard: This mode offers a balanced viewing experience with moderate levels of brightness, color, contrast, and sharpness and is best suited for normal lighting conditions.
  • Natural: If you prefer less brightness, color, contrast, and sharpness than Dynamic and Standard modes, the Natural picture mode should suffice your needs as it is good for eye comfort as well. Since Samsung TVs don’t have an option like LG’s Eye Comfort Mode, you should check my guide to learn how you can enable the blue light filter on your Samsung TV.
  • Movie: This picture adds a warm tone to the picture and offers subdued levels of brightness, contrast, sharpness, and color that are perfect for watching TV in low light or in a dark room. Since the Movie mode disabled any extraneous picture processing, it’s good for watching movies with smoother motion.

Apart from the default picture modes, Samsung TVs also come with Expert Settings that let advanced users tune the picture settings to their taste. Depending on your Samsung TV model number, the picture settings may differ.
