Hi everyone,
I own a LG 65 C7 and i absolute love watching 4k HDR/DV movies on it. Currently i have a WD external HDD connected directly to the LG through USB. Although the image quality and color is amazing i am getting some glitches. I am not sure what they are called but the edges around people or objects can become a bit blurry (not sharp) when moving. I have searched for best settings for LG and tried a few of these but without success.
Now there are a few things i want to solve going forward:
1. Switch to a NAS for central storage of my 4k movies
2. Get the best picture quality for streaming these movies from the NAS
3. Solve the current blur (when using HDD connected directly to TV)
4. Being able to navigate more easily between the movies
The questions i have are:
1. Would a dedicated media streamer improve the quality and solve the current glitch?
2. I have read many articles that OPPO UDP-203 is the best at the moment, also for streaming. Is this still the case?
3. If i don't play regular BD-disk often would the OPPO still outperform mediaplayers like Dune HD 4k pro?
4. How do you use Emby/plex from a NAS without letting it do the transcoding? I only want to use it for browsing and selecting movies
5. Any suggestions for a NAS for this purpose? I was thinking of Synology D218play since i dont need transcoding. But i might be missing something
Thank you in advance and my apologies for my noob questions
