video quality on new Dreamlink T2

[frankglo]

I just got my Dreamlink T2
Set-up was simple, but the video quality seems to be disappointing, unlike what I have been seeing on the previous one - Dreamlink T1 Plus.
I checked the resolution and it's on 1080p, changed HDMI cables, not on wi-fi, but on direct cable input, still, the video quality is like standard DVD.

I also use a MAG 254 on the same TV, and video quality is good, so what can be wrong here.

I have dreamlink T2, looks good. But I don't have a MAG or Dreamlink T1 plus to compare the video quality.

Appreciate the response from the those who have all these device to compare

Make sure your refresh rate is set to your tv's rate
If you own a 4K TV,The T2 4K settings are 2160p
Goto Settings/Android/Scroll down to Display/click Custom Display Format.
There you can set it to whatever is listed from 720,1080 or 2160.

t2 hs amazing picture quality.. everyone i know who has moved from cheap chinese boxes to formuler/dreamlink instantly comments on the picture quality.. the hisilicon chip is fantastic when it comes to video decoding and display..

I had problems with video quality and solve this by disabling the Energy saver on my tv set. maybe this can help...

my bad, i was thinking in terms of affecting actual stream quality, yeah proper display settings will of course make things appear better

I believe that problem is in the settings area.

The HDMI auto adaptation appears to change when I turn off the TV. That's why the video quality changes
CUSTOM SETTINGS FORMAT IS 1080p/60
UL SIZE
720 UL

Samsung Smart TV

How do I get this to stay in the settings?
I need help here
