Sorry, but I'm not sure what you're asking.
Do adjustments change in real time as they are being altered, so reds increase/decrease in intensity?

By who? No professional reviewer (John Archer, etc) recommends it.Zero does not soften the image on Panasonic TV's. It is the recommended setting.
Well, AVForums own Steve Withers in his calibration settings video states sharpness should be set to "0". I believe Sony TV's "no sharpness" setting is 50 and can be adjusted above and below this mark, but for this TV it is "0".By who? No professional reviewer (John Archer, etc) recommends it.
Check any Test Card (eg BBC HD on YouTube) and look at the fine lines up close and you'll see how much its softening the image.
I like it :0) It has a more cinematic look to it on my tv. Depth and texture is just a little better with my settings. Doesn't seem to be a panacea though - 2.2 looks better with some settings and with different movies.Why are you using BT1886???
My understanding is that BT.1886 is for all High Definition (that is, ITU-R BT.709) video, not UHD.
Yes, as I'm turning them down I'm watching the scenes with very low ire and I'm adjusting it down until the tinge disappears. That's when I stop.Do adjustments change in real time as they are being altered, so reds increase/decrease in intensity?
In True Cinema mode sharpness default is 30. Gives things a more 3d sense. But I start to feel an artificiality at that setting. If left at default settings I think 30 makes up for some issues and brings a bit of life into it. A lot of online calibrations for the Panny LEDs have left it at 30.Sharpness default is 50.
Fair enough!I like it :0) It has a more cinematic look to it on my tv. Depth and texture is just a little better with my settings. Doesn't seem to be a panacea though - 2.2 looks better with some settings and with different movies.
SHARPNESS:Sharpness default is 50.
I imagine that when Steve did his calibration of the Panny EX750 he derived the sharpness setting of "0" from his calibration software pattern generator. I dont think he just made it up. If his calibration resulted in a 20,30 or 100 seting for sharpness he would have had that setting in the video.A lot of online calibrations for the Panny LEDs have left it at 30.
Yes, I always have the sharpness at 0 on my Pannys. Just yields a more natural picture.

With better gamma and white balance though I have tried 20 which tests better using the Spears and Munsil disc. But the most accurate setting does seem to be 0. With 20 I can detect slight motion issues in some programmes. With anything above that, certain artifacts become apparent on the test images. I think when I was focusing on sharpness with the test images, 9 was the highest I could set it to without introducing any kind of artifacts at all.
It's an old argument this one. It comes down to what people prefer. Different eyes and different brains perceive things differently.
Just popping in from the OLED forum to bring news... My dealer has just confirmed that the Panasonic support patch that updates our OLEDs to 280b also works for your EX750s (which isn't surprising, as it updates the same MSTAR framerate converter which is shared between both platforms). He's just updated a 50" and a 75" EX750 to 280b.
280b cures the stutter and motion problems seen on 25Hz material (Freeview, Freesat, some streaming content - eg Black Mirror S4 and The Crown on Netflix). The previous patch to 270b cured this with IFC off, but 280b appears to work with IFC on also.
If you want to give it a go, it can be downloaded here: Dropbox - SDDL.SEC
It's extremely annoying that Panasonic UK service refuse to send out / deny knowledge of this patch when it's freely being sent out by other Panasonic service channels abroad. It's a single unified patch for all territories and platforms using this MSTAR motion processor.
Updated my 50EX750, it updated ok.
Depends on the file. I think it's the S&M one that has some mesh patterns embedded into the outside grey frame. These are supposed to be barely visible but start to become obvious when sharpness is too high. Other test files have numerous patterns that start to change colour if the sharpness is too high. And then there's the added noise at the outside of lines.What are the artefacts?
Yes. Noticing far less of the judder than before. Only seen it a few times since the update last week. Hasn't eliminated it, but has certainly decreased both the frequency and level/obviousness of it.Have you tested the update 50Hz issue fix yet?

Yes, it's only been present on terrestrial tv via the dvb tuner of the tv. I think a couple of Netflix programmes had it a while back but that was confined to single episodes. No problems at all via external sources. 1080p direct from my br recorder has not been affected.Can’t say i see it at all using 1080p Pure Direct. I am really fussy about motion too. Have you tried this, from external source?
I have Sharpness set at 0 now and it has lifted the colour detail.
