In this case, only Custom can be changed to your desired conditions. • Video Setting can be set to the user's preference in Game mode (Similar to Custom mode) with the exception of the Auto Movie setting. • If you change any of the adjustments in the Dynamic, Standard and Movie modes, the name of the Custom option will change.
