  @Zionethics,

  Baka compatibility setting ng ARC ng soundbar mo with HDMI 2.0. Try setting your HDMI 1 (where your ARC goes) 2.0 setting to off muna then turn on your CEC settings.
  
  Ganun setup ko sa pioneer receiver ko na HDMI 1.3 lang ang standard. ARC worked well after ko i-off yung HDMI 2.0 sa HDMI1.

  
  
  Unfortunately, walang setting sa P727 ko para ibahin yung version ng HDMI ports. Anyway, tinanggal ko na lang yung dummy na 3.5mm jack kasi ang janky, lol.

  Try this. Since HDMI1 port ang merong ARC:
  
  - Set your input to HDMI1
  - It will show "no signal" if walang nakakabit or ARC device ang nakakabit
  - Open settings then go to System
  - Inside system, go to Advanced
  - Under advanced settings, check if HDMI advanced standard is set to on. If yes, set to OFF (very important for soundbars)
  - Open settings again then go to System
  - Open consumer Electronic Control (CEC)
  - enable all options (HDMI control, auto power on, auto standby)
  - exit from settings
  - press the home button on the remote
  - Hold down power button on remote. If prompted to fully shut down, click yes.
  - Turn on your soundbar, set your input to HDMI or ARC.
  - Turn on your TV set. Once in the main menu, try your TV remote's volume button if the soundbar volume responds to it. The volume indicator on screen should now be AV sys instead of volume.

  Thanks bro. Followed your instructions down to the T but I still get the same results as before. Sa simula detected yung soundbar and I can control the volume using the TV's remote, pero after a while nawawala yung audio tapos hindi na naka-lista yung name nung soundbar dun sa CEC. I'm using the cheapo Xtreme XP-8800 soundbar and I'm just going to assume that its implementation of ARC is trash, lol.

  Quick question: Does the TCL P727 have game mode?

• XtraRice on 26 Sep 21 @ 01:41 AM #

  ^ Meron.
  
  Meron din PC mode which turns off all post-processing.

  Hi guys looking to buy a 75" UHD tv with budget around 80k parang maraming pwedeng pagpilian. Ano tingin nyo pinakasulit?
  
  I'm checking out TCL P727 or the older X80H.

• khernitzz on 27 Sep 21 @ 09:08 AM #

  @zionethics
  
  

  Current Version:
  V8-S586T05-LF1V020

  
  
  Mukhang yan na ang latest firmware for that platform. Last resort mo na lang is to factory reset and hope for the best

  Question Lang sa TCL P717 vs P727
  
  My TV which I bought last Oct 2019 had a defective LCD panel at buti nahabol ko sa warranty before matapos ito. TCL is willing to replace the unit but because the model I have(55P8US) is out of the market yata, they decided to change my unit to P717 or upgrade it to P727 but I would shell out 3k more for the P727 unit. Is it worth shelling out that amount as 3 months Lang raw ang warranty ng new unit kung sakali tanggapin ko?
  
  Actually dineliver na kanina yun P717 but I rejected it as Hindi naman nila ininform sa akin ano model number sa customer service at Hindi ko kaagad naresearch so I decided to return it for now. Yun extra 3k ba mga paps is it worth it as 2021 model raw kung sakali yun P727 model (April 2021?)…kung yun P717 tanggapin ko wala na additional 3k but the warranty would be the same(3 months) for a replacement unit.

• XtraRice on 28 Sep 21 @ 12:11 AM #

  Para sakin hindi ganun ka-significant yung lamang ng P727 sa P717. Notable lang Dolby Vision and Android TV, tapos some minor stuff like HDMI ARC, 5Ghz WIFI, and USB3.
  
  Also, I doubt these TCLs can even reach the minimum brightness required to actually take advantage of HDR.
  
  IMO, I don't really think you're missing a lot by getting the P717 instead. Then again, getting the P727 might give you peace of mind because you have their newest TV na.

• bingowingo on 28 Sep 21 @ 01:02 AM #

  Thanks for the response xtrarice.
  
  Wala kasi ako masyado makita reviews sa P727 but nabasa ko rito na May feature sya ISDB-T meaning Hindi na kailangan abs cbn tv plus ko and baron antenna suitable na?

• tangangtanga on 29 Sep 21 @ 08:29 AM #

  @all
  
  May users pa ba ng TCL 55P6US dito? question lang after 5years nagkaron na siya ng issue, nag blackscreen na siya pero nagana un audio niya. Kaya pa bang maayos ito or bili na ng bago? kung ipapaayos may marerecommend ba kayong service center na malapit sa malolos bulacan?
  
  Nagcheck ako sa website ng TCL pero nirefer ako sa dalawang shop na nagawa ng ref at aircon lol.
  1. Barmen Ref Shop ASP-BULACAN
  2. WINTER COOL REF & AIRCON SERVICES AND TRADING
  
  Thank you

  Hello question lang sa mga p727 users kamusta yung tv? Ok naman ba siya sa gaming? (Ps4 pro/ps5), and yung android os niya hindi ba malag? Planning to buy na kasi, first option ko yung samsung tu8000 or au 8000 kaso out of stock. After sales experience niyo hassle free naman ba?

  @bingowingo
  
  I would definitely pay an extra 3k for the P727. It's a newer panel, better features, in short, a better TV.

• Joejoe712 on 01 Oct 21 @ 01:22 PM #

  Hello ano po best settings niyo sa p272 tv? I went ahead and pulled the trigger na kumuha ako isang unit. For gaming tska for watching shows sana. Thank youu

• XtraRice on 01 Oct 21 @ 02:58 PM #

  Ganito settings ko:
  
  Brightness 55
  Contrast 80
  Black Level 48
  Color Temperature 0
  
  Check mo yung Local Contrast setting, yan yata ang local dimming ng TV natin. Minsan ginagamit ko, minsan din naka-off lang.
  
  Lahat ng iba either naka off or default.
  
  Sa case mo ilagay mo sa game mode para medyo bumaba input lag.
  
  Btw, yung Brightness na setting ay para sa backlight. Yung usaul na brightness setting yung Black Level.

• badsector on 01 Oct 21 @ 04:13 PM #

  Anong gamit nyong antenna for local digital tv? Wala pala syang kasamang antenna out of the box no?
