How to turn off Auto Brightness

Jump to solution

Hello all. I have been looking at possibly purchasing a ROKU TV to replace a 14 year old Sony Bravia LCD in our bedroom which has a streaming stick attached already which works extremely well as long as the TV lasts which could go anytime due to age. I would like to know about auto brightness in the ROKU TV's and is there a way to turn off this function. I like to set my TV on the brightness level I like for all my streaming Apps and not change regardless of the amount of light in the room or picture mode. I also use Movie/Cinema on my TV's and customize and fine tune the picture settings. Thank you for any info that you can provide about turning off auto picture brightness.

Respectfully,

Don

@lynnlale,

Thank you for posting in the Roku Community!

We appreciate you reaching out regarding the brightness adjustment on your Roku TV. We're here to help you enhance your viewing experience! 

Do you have a Roku Branded TV or a Roku TV?

A Roku Branded TV is manufactured by Roku (Roku TV Select and Roku TV Plus), while a Roku TV is manufactured by a Roku Partner (TCL, Sharp, etc.).

If you cannot find the brightness adjustment setting on your TV using the steps provided above, please contact the TV manufacturer directly for further assistance.

If you're encountering an issue with your Roku TV manufactured by a Roku partner, start by contacting the manufacturer. Each TV manufacturer provides direct support for its models. 

For support regarding Roku TVs, please visit our support page: Where can I get support for my Roku TV™?

Thanks,
Arjiemar
