Each week, we'll hand pick some of the most commonly asked questions and answer them as concisely and helpfully as we know how. On today’s episode of You Asked : Panasonic is back — so, what comes next? Rtings.com weighs in on the LG C4 and shows us what respect and integrity looks like. And remember that Samsung and Google partnership designed to take on Dolby Atmos? What’s up with that?

Creating Dolby Atmos audio requires a bunch of steps in the Dolby pipeline. Audio needs needs to be mixed and mastered in Dolby Atmos and encoded in Dolby’s format, then decoded using Dolby decoders. Well, last we heard, it was hoped that IAMF would make its debut late in 2024 which, by my watch is … right now? Or at least right around the corner.

Here’s another concern: Dolby Atmos is ubiquitous. A lot of big industry players are heavily invested in Dolby Atmos production, and maybe they will add on IAMF to their workflow. But I don’t think they will ditch Dolby Atmos — at least not anytime soon. One thing we can confirm remains unchanged is that there’s a noticeable green tint on the C4 we bought and tested. This is a widespread issue that impacts almost all LG OLED panels, but this is also something that can vary widely from unit-to-unit. LG Electronics has confirmed to us that our unit is about as bad as it gets, and anything worse wouldn’t pass LG’s quality control checks. Although it varies between units, most people shouldn’t see this issue on their TV.

So, first off, thanks to Rtings for taking the time to comment. Second, thanks to Rtings for being truly classy about it. This is what collaboration should look like. Fewer assumptions, more questions that seek to understand. In a YouTube world where character assaults thinly veiled as “reaction videos” are so common, this is a super-big breath of fresh air.
