Japanese TV uses D93 for its white colour. Doesn't matter if it's mario or AC7, NES or PS5. For half a century, Westerners have been playing games and watching anime and films with a screwed up colour palette. We use D65 universally.

If you've got a Japanese brand TV, there's a good chance its temperature default is D93. D65 is usually Warm or Warm2, so it gets worse the better calibrated your TV is. /a/ and /tv/ viewership is also corrupted. What exactly is currently going on inside the digital content pipelines of Japanese game studios is a mystery.

>Colors are slightly offbalance
>YOU'RE CONSUMING JAPANESE MEDIA WRONG
ok bro. Relax.
>>
>>750805690
>Warm or Warm2
Those presets make everything look like an overly dark orange mess. I almost always change my shit to cool/neutral with the color filters off. Why people want to watch their media with a blue/orange overlay tacked on is beyond me.

ima need a side by side comparison jpeg, my nigga.

Now this is based levels of shitposting

On Panasonic OLEDs, Warm2 is exactly how the web is supposed to look.

It's only the case for older games, pre HD era. Japan switched to the Western standard when they introduced HD television.
You can actually tell because games developed for D93 have a reddish taint when played in D65, and D65 games a blueish taint when played in D93.
>>
>>750806127
They use rec 709 but are still using D93 with it.

I need practical examples to see the difference

I don't even watch all of my anime in the correct aspect ratio, you think I give a fuck about white balance?

Damn...

>>750805868
there's like a "filmmaker mode" I believe which is supposed to be with all the shit turned off.
that's what I've been using forever, any of the other presets look like they have a yellow/blue filter over the screen.

>>750805690
Now you've got me curious, in the original legend of Zelda what color does that make link when he gets the blue ring? in america it's almost a periwinkle, is it more blue on their colors?

which is correct? Japanese will see the second.

>>750806884
ok so they prefer warmer colors? it does look nice

>tfw already liked 9300k and cooler tones in general
fuck now everybody's gonna think i'm a weeb

The opposite.

They have a lot more MELANIN in their eyes (macula) which absorbs blue. On the other hand, there is chromatic adaptation. Who knows what this means for different humans? light eyes can see more shades of blue in very dark settings.

I use 10,000, it's a nice round number.

You niggys wish you could see as much blue as me
>>
Huh, I never knew that. I've always preferred whiter/higher K lights, even in my house. I can't stand piss filter bulbs.
>>
>>750805690
I always keep my screen at 35k since blue light is gay.
>>
chatgpt shotgunned the math so these pics slightly underrepresent the difference (9100k)

>>750808361
disgusting.
>>
>>750807892
thank you, that's really cool. It's a lot closer than I'd have thought
>>
>>750808640
Chatgpt fucked the math so that example is like 8500k or something.

I'll get a proper pipeline and make broader examples for other boards soon
>>
>>750808728
Either way it's something I'd never thought of. I might be a little bit autistic but this might breathe some new life into older games seeing the way they were 'meant' to be seen.

Here is is, Warm2 unchanged from the factory. 7 year old Panasonic.

Sorry OP you're wrong.
D93 was the referenced specification for old SDTV broadcast standards.
It may technically be true, but only apply to games older than like 1998.

You posting ACE7 and FFX is gay retard shit.
Your premise is also gay and retarded. It would imply the japanese have 9300k factory set screens and monitors when they all adhere to bt.709 standard.

sorry, the idea might be true for pre gen 6 games, it's not true for anything else
>>
>>750805690
nigger 95% of people played games on garbage CRT TVs with composite video in a poorly lit room, nobody would have noticed the difference

That's the point. They're doing 709 but with D93. What exactly their current digital asset production workflows are remain a mystery. For video, bet on D93. multiplatform games? Unclear.
>>
>>750812314
>civilized
So civilized there are still people who record in 50fps PAL to youtube despite analog broadcast and its limitations not being a thing for almost 15 years.
Retarded, more like.

Everytime I see a E*ro on youtube and see it's 50fps video I downvote and report the channel for terrorism.
>>
>>750812276
It's an erroneous underestimate.
>>
>>750812394
No, they aren't.
The japanese changed to D65 with the bt.709 and HDTV standards.
D93 was only for NTSC.
They haven't used it in over 20 years.

"The point" is that technically, older jap movies and games should have the screen set to 9300.
Which is great information! I appreciate learning this.

But don't post anything from newer than 2005 and tell people that its not supposed to be 6500k.
>>
>>750812407
thats a japanese connector.
and either way, scart was better too.

>>750812456
How can you tell JP21 vs SCART? I thought the connector was identical just with a different pin-out?
>>
>>750812445
The japanese TVs are still 9300k in Normal. rec 709 requires manually changing to another setting. So, Japanese broadcast still uses D93 while adopting the remaining details of the standard.

It's reasonable for you to guess that they are using D65 because of digital broadcasting, but you are likely mistaken. If you didn't know about NTSC-J, you probably don't have any specific information about the actual japanese current practice.
>>
>>750812693
I can tell because I posted it after googling it :^)
>>
>>750812717
It's just wrong. let it go
>>
>>750805690
Wrong. If you calibrate your TV, you'll always have warm colors. This is the faggiest post on /v/ right now.
>>
Is this the next thing "enthusiast" fags are gonna be talking about. Where's the 45 minute video essay about how I'm viewing games inauthentically?
>>
>>750812907

https://www.arib.or.jp/english/std_tr/broadcasting/desc/tr-b28.html

>D93 is used as a reference in NTSC 525 system in Japan. The reference white in the standard of Rec. ITU-R BT 709 and SMPTE274M is D65. In the actual program production, NTSC 525 system and HDTV 1125 system co-exist. It is desirable that the color temperature of a monitor is unified under the same environment in operation.

This is ambiguous, but you do get the sense that production monitoring and end users are both using D93.
>>
>>750812445
Jap TVs are only D65 in movie mode.
