Netflix grainy on my KD-55X8505C

I have recently bought this TV and have not had thoose issues before. 

 

How come the picture quallity is bad?

 

Same Show different TV's The first one here is from KD-55X8505C 

Built-in Netflix app TV picture settings standard. Network connection over ethernet

KD-55X8505C

 

This is taken from a LG-LW550W - (same as LG-LW5500) from PS3 Netflix app 

The PS3 is connected to WiFi so runing on a slower connection, but still better picture.

LW550W

 

How come. I guess it should be better on the new Sony TV? 

 

Would i have to get a faster internet connection to get a better picture on the Sony TV

or are there some settings, tweaks im missing here? 

 

I have also tried to play the same video file from a PS4 on the Sony TV. Same issues.

What are im missing? Is this really a crap TV like many people are saying?

 

Cheers.

I was almost 100% certain that the issue was relates to my ISP and not the TV itself. Having problems with download speed goes up and down... 

 

But then I tried some different things myself, and...

 

Well this is what I found out.

 

Picture mode Custom and the one on top of Custom and you get this result:

 

Custom picture settings

 

 

 

Then if you choose almost any other of the picture modes you get this result 🙂

 Personal setting choosen

 

 

I did at last, figure out what setting it was making this grainy picture!! REALITY CREATION
so in this case you have to set it in OFF mode.

 

I also found this link http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/sony/x850c 

with a guide to recommended TV settings i guess this also can be used on KD-55X8505C.
