I was messing with the TV settings because I couldn't figure out why is it that the picture quality and full range of refresh rate wasn't being used. When I selected the "Info" option on the settings, I saw it, the TV was pinned at 1080p 30Hz. So I did some research and learned a whole lot on HDR, Dolby Atmos and all jazz. Got an Apple TV, hooked it up, and there it was, full HDR at 60Hz with 1440p.
And then you need to make sure its a minimum of HDMI 2.0 for 60Hz or 2.1 for 120Hz. Hz=FPS
Also 1440 is only 2K BTW.
VERY surprised you even needed to g that route since it should be a smart TV.
