#Odyssey g9 firmware upgrade#

The display supports upgrade from only one of the two USB ports.Copy to the root of the volume on your USB drive (for example: 'M-T9549GGAA-1016.0.img') I am assuming samsung may have resolved screen quality issues through firmware upgrades by now.

zip provided by Samsung and do not alter the name. The volume must be FAT32, ensure your partition is no larger than 32GB.This will destroy your existing volume(s) - do backup your data if needed. Set your USB drive to the MBR partition scheme via diskpart (the Disk Management GUI may also work as well).This is only incidental as the drives are low-capacity and happened to be pre-formatted MBR+FAT32. Do not buy a new USB drive - browsing the web I found threads where others recommend buying new drives that magically work.This limitation took me a bit figure out, but it's well-known that MBR+FAT32 is the lowest common denominator for embedded USB storage support. In this case changing to a 16:9 resolution is your only recourse and thus Screen Size 'Auto' and Adaptive-Sync 'Off'.įirmware upgrades can only load from USB drives which have an MBR partition table with a FAT32 volume The 'Auto' setting for Screen Size provides vertical black bars on the left/right to provide proper display of non-ultra wide content when this setting is disabled due to Adaptive-Sync your game will become horribly stretched across 49' of display 🤮.Įven games which do technically support 32:9 may actually reduce FOV to that of 16:9 to eliminate an FOV advantage in multiplayer - you end up with a scenario where content looks proper at first glance but is completely disorienting (PUBG!). If your game does not support an ultra wide 32:9 aspect ratio, you cannot use AMD's FreeSync or NVIDIA's G-SYNC. There are a few oddities which may help others:Īdaptive-Sync cannot be 'On' with Screen Size 'Auto' Although Samsung primarily targets gamers for the marketing of the display, productivity apps are excellent as well 49' + Windows 11's enhanced support for window docking has allowed me to do away with a dual-display setup. With a curvature of 1000R it matches the human eye's FOV at 1 meter and provides a great experience for games which support the 32:9 aspect ratio. I picked up the Samsung Odyssey G9 49' some months ago during the (nearly too good to be true) GameStop PowerUp promo.
