Thought I'd pipe-in that 4K UHD disks are running $50 CDN smackers up here in Canada at Walmart, doubt everyone is on board. I'd provide links, but that would be tantamount to spamming.

Imo,
Set resolution to 2160p instead of 1080p.
Disable KODI limited 16-235 and change black level to NORMAL in Samsung.
Enable Adjust Display Refresh Rate.
Enable High Quality Scalers for Scaling Above 0%.

yes I can, but which ones would affect how bad HDR 4k videos look? I don't know what some of those settings are. like dithering. or should I just copy all those settings?

They seem to work for turbotec here. They seem to work for others in different threads. I know they work for me. I think they'll work for you. I'm fairly certain dithering is enabled with an 8bit value default. You may or may not need it enabled or do with a different value. After applying the other settings, experiment. It is probably display and GPU dependent so no one setting is correct for everyone. I suspect it will increase or decrease banding but someone else suggested it is more related to Full vs Limited which I didn't understand tbh. Perhaps another can explain the setting in detail for you. I use it enabled with 8bit because my GPU does not have a selectable 10bit setting to match my 10bit display. However it does have an 8bit selection so I match that everywhere. The difference is most likely negligible anyway.
