Thank you for this... i was about to lose my mind trying to get this to work.

Must have watched 10 videos looking at how to do this for the PC. Finally getting 120HZ ... *A BIG THANKS and TU!*

You don't know how much you've helped me. I never imagined this would be "turned off" by default. I have a PC connected via a long 15m HDMI 2.0 cable and I was able to get 60 fps. Now thanks to this feature my Philips TV can be turned at 120 hz (even tho it's just a 2.0 cable, not 2.1 ?!) and it works properly. At 60 (at least in the settings) there was a terrible input lag, now the tv reacts as if it would be my monitor. Awesome, thank you

Finally someone mentions that on the 900H,
ONLY HDMI PORTS 3 & 4 support 4K thank you very much sir. You have a fan for life

Thank you so much, nearly went to sell this TV bc I my xbox said it could only run the 120hz on 1080p 😂 you're a legend

This works with X85J 55 inch model. Before doing that configuration the max I reach was 4K 60Hz but now I get 4K 120Hz. Using a 15m HDMI Fiber cable.

Man, what a relief! I just brought a 2021 Sony Bravia TV to support my XBOX Series X and almost thought I spent money on the wrong Flatscreen when my Xbox wouldn’t support 4K 120 FPS until I saw this video. Now I know what to do. And I would like to finish by saying “WHEW”!!!

does the tv smart system always run at 4k 120hz native?

[TheBlueCorolla]

Great straight forward explanation, I can now enjoy PS5 in 4k, thank you so much for your help

[Ragduff]

I couldn’t find “ external inputs” to save my life.
Thank you!

Sony x91j has hdmi 3 (eArc/Arc) and hdmi 4. Both have these options:
1. Standard
2. Enchanced format
3. Enchanced format (Dolby vision)
4. Enchanced format (VRR)

I confused, what port and what mode is better to use for PS5?

When u go into settings it says watching tv on my jvc tv i dont have that can u help me to enable it or fix it please?

[IvoRuestRossi]

This video should come along with the damn TV!!! Thanks a lot!!

[danielreyes]

Thank you for this i was about to return the TV

[instaone]

Thanks dude you solved my problem after one year ... 👍

[AndersAU]

I have the x950h and it will not allow it, the hdmi 3 and 4 are both on enhanced but it will not allow 4K at 120, the x950h is a superior model so I’m so disappointed :(

[NicholasPaulFranks]

Have you done a video that explains getting the best out of the tv visuals in similarly clear terms?! Cheers

[cadegcn]

Does plugging in a PS5 to an HDMI 2.1 input on a Soundbar and eARC to an HDMI 2.0 work to get the 4K/120?

[jasonperez]

thank you for saving me a trip back to the store 🤝😤

I don’t get a list but I can still enable enhanced format mode. The problem is nothing happens on my games and I don’t get 120fps..
