The Samsung JS9500 is a 2015 4K TV, and its picture settings provide a wide range of options for adjusting the image. The settings below are based on the Movie picture mode and include basic picture settings, picture options, advanced color settings, and white balance adjustments.
These values can be used as a starting point for adjusting a Samsung JS9500. Picture settings are not necessarily identical for every TV because the panel, viewing conditions, and individual calibration can affect the final result.
Samsung JS9500 basic picture settings
For the basic picture settings, select Movie as the Picture Mode and use the following values:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Picture Mode | Movie |
| Backlight | 6 |
| Contrast | 94 |
| Brightness | 45 |
| Sharpness | 0 |
| Color | 50 |
| Tint | G50/R50 |
The Backlight setting can be changed depending on the lighting in the room. A higher value makes the screen brighter, while a lower value is more suitable for a darker room.
The other values provide the starting point for the picture adjustment and can be changed if the image does not look right for your particular TV or viewing conditions.
Samsung JS9500 picture options
Use the following settings in the Picture Options menu:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Color Tone | Warm2 |
| Digital Clean View | Off |
| MPEG Noise Filter | Off |
| HDMI Black Level | Auto |
| Auto Motion Plus | Off |
Warm2 gives the picture a warmer color temperature and is commonly used as a starting point for a more neutral picture.
Digital Clean View and MPEG Noise Filter are disabled in these settings because they process the image and can reduce fine detail. Auto Motion Plus is also disabled, so additional motion interpolation is not applied.
Samsung JS9500 advanced picture settings
The Advanced Settings menu uses the following values:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Dynamic Contrast | Off |
| Black Tone | Off |
| Flesh Tone | 0 |
| RGB Only Mode | Off |
| Color Space | Custom |
| Gamma | 0 |
Dynamic Contrast and Black Tone are disabled to avoid additional processing of contrast and black levels.
The Color Space is set to Custom because individual RGB values are specified below.
Samsung JS9500 Custom Color Space
The following RGB values are used for the Custom Color Space setting:
| Color | Red | Green | Blue |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red | 26 | 6 | 1 |
| Green | 22 | 39 | 2 |
| Blue | 0 | 7 | 47 |
| Yellow | 46 | 46 | 2 |
| Cyan | 24 | 48 | 54 |
| Magenta | 29 | 9 | 48 |
These values adjust the individual primary and secondary colors rather than changing the overall Color setting.
Samsung JS9500 2-point white balance
The 2-point White Balance settings are:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| R-Offset | -1 |
| G-Offset | 0 |
| B-Offset | -5 |
| R-Gain | 6 |
| G-Gain | 0 |
| B-Gain | -5 |
White Balance adjustments affect the balance between red, green, and blue across the grayscale.
These values should be treated as calibration settings rather than universal values for every Samsung JS9500. A professional calibration can produce different results on another TV.
Samsung JS9500 10-point white balance
The 10-point settings are:
| Interval | Red | Green | Blue |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10% | -15 | -5 | -46 |
| 20% | -16 | -5 | -5 |
| 30% | -18 | -4 | 3 |
| 40% | -26 | -12 | 3 |
| 50% | -22 | -11 | 4 |
| 60% | -23 | -17 | -5 |
| 70% | -15 | -13 | -6 |
| 80% | -13 | -6 | -4 |
| 90% | -13 | -8 | -1 |
| 100% | -5 | 0 | 13 |
The 10-point controls allow the grayscale to be adjusted at different brightness levels. Unlike basic picture settings, these values are particularly dependent on the individual TV and the equipment used for measurement.
For this reason, the 10-point settings should be considered a reference rather than a guarantee of identical results on every JS9500.
