Color changes while watching Apple TV+ programming

My equipment:

  • Apple TV 4K
  • LG OLED B2
  • Sonos Playbar


I’m experiencing something very strange while watching Apple TV+ content such as Ted Lasso, Shrinking, etc. Color will start out vibrant with good contrast and color, then all of a sudden the picture becomes low contrast with muted colors. This does not happen while watching programs on YouTube TV, Disney+, Netflix, and others. The color starts good and stays good while watching programs on these apps. Even navigating around the Apple TV app is ok, but once I start watching a show this color changes happens.


Here are my current color settings:

  • Apple TV
    • Format: 4K Dolby Vision
    • Match Content: Frame Rate and Dynamic Range both on
    • HDMI connection test came back OK
  • LG OLED B2
    • Picture Mode: Cinema Home
    • Filmaker Mode: I’ve tried both on and off, makes no difference
    • HDMI: I’m using port 3 from the Apple TV 4K
    • Audio: Connected to Sonos Playbar via optical output
