not really. just copy what i have put up in screenshots for each profile in each group, after that is just a case of fine tuning the settings within the profiles.
dont always aim for the high settings in scaling or what other people tell you is the best, its only the best setting with regards to your eyes and your hardware. unless you get a qualified calibrator in to set them for you.
it can actually be worse if you get the wrong setting. nobody can tell you what the correct settings are without actually being there as screenshots are only as good as what the other person is seeing on their display device, reminds me of the old mitsubishi black diamond tv adverts... lol

with regards to, madVR -> devices -> your display device -> display modes -> list all display modes madVR may switch to: put 2160p23, 2160p60, 1080p23 in there.
yes it will switch to 1080p for bluray but i'm guessing your nice shiny new projector has upscaling built in. if so then make use of it as it will no doubt be hardware rather than software driven.

i have got better PQ results not upscaling 1080p (bluray) to 2160p (4k)

turn off 'video processing' in your AV amplifier as you dont want it messing with the signal. set the HDMI 4k properties to 'passthrough' or set to what your display device (projector) is capable of e.g. "extended" or "standard".


one more thing, are you using windows 8 as your screenshots look very much like it.

 Why are you trying to undo all of the advice I just provided? He already has everything configured correctly. Now you are making him start all over again. You don't trust my advice or didn't read the thread?

Telling him not to upscale 1080p -> 2160p with madVR is bad advice. Does your display have the computing power of your GPU? madVR uses complex image upscaling (I'm talking NGU image doubling) to scale the image using neural networks that find the edges of objects and sharpen them without ringing or aliasing. The number of calculations required for this type of upscaling requires a gaming GPU with computational power. No Blu-ray player or TV will have the capability to do that type of image scaling. Its processing is simply too slow.

So why are you using madVR in the first place if not to image scale? Just for HDR passthrough?

Can you see the difference in these images? If you can't, you shouldn't be using madVR:
