I use a 4K UHD TV as a large monitor for my PC with a small 1080P monitor as a second screen. I find the picture on the UHD TV is generally good but have recently noticed that it seems to have light colour artefacts when resolving very fine details. It happens most consistently on very small black text on white background where there is a fairly faint but visible rainbow effect around the text as if the colour is somehow ‘leaking’. The effect doesn’t happen on larger text, just small text, but it can still be distracting at times. For comparison the regular 1080P monitor I have as the second screen doesn’t have this problem at all.
This image shows the effect that I see on the black text, you can see it in the white window where I have right clicked: http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/f...psqn9rmxiu.jpg
In particular, I was wondering is it likely a fault of the TV? Or likely that I have the TV settings wrong? Is it simply a limitation of using a TV with a PC instead of a monitor? (though I would have thought a 4K screen could resolve the finest detail easily) or a mismatch of colour space settings between the PC and screen?
Any advice appreciated
Thank you for reading.
