Popular Envy Tweaks:
The default settings in the Envy deliver an outstanding
image. However, you may wish to change the settings to taste and to enable certain
features, like how you want subtitles handled. Please play around in Settings to see
what you like best. Note that the settings will be temporary until you save them to
your Base Settings or to a profile
–
for more information see the note about profiles
in Section 3.1. Popular tweaks include:
HDR Settings
(first page in the Permanent and Temporary Settings menu):
Highlight Recovery (try at “Insane”), Contrast Recovery (try at High), Shadow
Detail Recovery (try various settings), Brightness Preference tweaks (raising this
means you want the overall picture to be brighter but leaves less room for HDR
highlights and lowering this means you want the overall picture to be darker but
leaves more room for HDR highlights).
Upscaling and Sharpening
(also in the Permanent and Temporary Settings
menu): Did you know that the Envy can add very tasteful, artifact-free and
ringing-free sharpening, even to 4K sources? Try adding some Crisp Edges, Edge
Enhancement and Detail Enhancement and see what you think!
Subtitle and OSD handling:
Subtitles and On-Screen Display (OSD) elements
from your source devices are problematic for users with scoped screens.
Especially since the black bar areas where subtitles and OSD elements are often
displayed is normally zoomed off the screen by your lens setting! Envy will bring
your black bars back, temporarily as needed, for you to see the subtitles and
OSD. There are lots of options such as how long you want the black bar area to
stick around after subtitles disappear, and more. See the Black Bar Configuration
menu in your Envy for more information.

provides that we added features ex

of them:
