The TV auto updated yesterday to a new firmware and, much to my surprise, all the previous picture settings I had configured were lost. I didn't have time yesterday to re-enter those settings but I did change the backlight to 8, configured smart led to low and activated cinema black (I don't remember seeing different levels for cinema black, although I might be wrong).

When using these settings with a very dark scene, it does indeed look very good. Blacks look really black and deep. However, because English is not may mother tongue, I usually watch movies with subtitles. I noticed that if subtitles are displayed below the movie image (on the bottom black bar), the LEDS obviously activate for this part of the screen (defeating the cinema black feature). In this case, the bar is not really black (as expected) but it is also not uniform either. So you can actually see some clouds already at this level. If I move up the subtitles so that they land on top of the movie image, everything looks gorgeous.
