None HD tv program settings

Can anyone suggest setting for a 65xf9005, loving the TV, HD and 4K is stunning but standard none HD, ITV catchup etc. Is just unacceptable in 2018 was baffled with upscaling and fancy processing promises from Sony but they could not connect the TV in the showroom to a tv aerial to show none HD tv content, and I know why. 

 

So so based on the promises I’m must have the setting all messed up? 

 

Can anyone sugest a better setup to help watch none HD content without feeling sick 🤢 and thinking I need glasses to correct my vision..

 

it it would be great to even reduce the picture size to increase the clarity? Is this possible?

 

would love any ideas please, cheers Dean 👍

Hi @skymanuk

The term you are looking for is Standard Definition (SD). No amount of "upscaling" is going to produce near HD quality considering it only has about 30% of the picture being broadcast meaning the TV has to "guess" 70%. The answer is to sit further away from the TV or of course if that is not possible then you need a smaller TV.
