This feature provides information about current and upcoming programs, making it easier for users to navigate and choose what they want to watch.

The best settings for your Samsung Q80A TV will depend on your personal preferences and viewing environment. However, here are some general recommendations:
1. Picture Mode: Start with the "Movie" or "Filmmaker Mode" for accurate colors and balanced picture settings. You can also try the "Standard" mode if you prefer a brighter image.
. Backlight: Adjust the backlight level based on your room's lighting conditions. Increase it for brighter rooms and decrease it for darker rooms.
3. Contrast: Set the contrast level to a comfortable level, ensuring that the picture details are visible without being overly bright.
4. Brightness: Adjust the brightness level to your liking, making sure that dark scenes are visible and not too crushed.
5. Color and Tint: Leave these settings at default values for accurate color reproduction. Adjust them slightly if required to match your preferences.
6. Sharpness: Avoid over-sharpening the picture as it can introduce artifacts. Set it to a moderate level.
7. Local Dimming: Turn on the local dimming feature to enhance contrast and black level performance.
8. Motion Smoothing: Disable motion smoothing (also known as "Auto Motion Plus" or "Soap Opera Effect") for a more natural picture. This feature can make movies and TV shows look like soap operas.
9. Game Mode: Enable game mode if you're playing video games to reduce input lag for faster response times.
10. Sound Settings: Adjust the sound settings as per your preferences. You can also consider using an external sound system for better audio quality.
Remember to experiment with different settings to find the best combination that suits your specific needs and content viewing.
