Can someone tell me if you guys have also this issue for the Odyssey G7 32" (Scanlines issue)

[hola12]

You certainly know there was a flickering issue with the G-sync before the 1009.3 firmware. Well there's another problem : Scanlines (horizontal lines that appear on the entire screen) issue.

People like me have this kind of problem :
1) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2Z_eDIdvYw
2) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyPKLKySgng
3) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIwvcO8ltGI
4) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGVDJoZONmM

+ I might think it's a firmware problem because when I replaced this monitor (dead/stuck pixel) with a new one that I'm currently using, both have "Scanlines" issue.
Sometimes it disappear when you change in "Black Equalizer" settings.

US community or European community get ignored by Samsung.

As you can see, I'm not the only one to have this problem.

If you have an Odyssey G7 32", can you try this for me and tell me if you have also this issue ? Must be connected on Displayport 1.4 (240 Hz) with a NVIDIA graphics card + Black Equalizer set on 13 (the default value that engineers are not scared to put this unlucky number...) / or simply put to default settings (+ Night light off on Windows) :

1) You can reproduce "Scanlines" issue on these following sites (on a browser like GOOGLE CHROME/ MICROSOFT EDGE and MAXIMIZE the window) :

Thank you for reading my problem

I've had my 32" G7 for about 2.5 months now. Connected with DP 1.4, 240 Hz, to an Nvidia 3090 FE card. Didn't have to adjust Black Equalizer. It's been set to 13 the entire time.

 

I was able to reproduce this issue, but only when looking at the specific websites you linked. As soon as I close those offending browser tabs the issue goes away. Was not able to reproduce when opening GeForce Experience and maximizing the window on the Home tab. Never saw this problem before doing this test. I did have the flickering problem before, but that was solved with the firmware update. There's something with those specific websites that's causing the issue.

for the Geforce I put "(...)" . But can you try again (Open application NVIDIA Geforce Experience (maximize window) in "Home" tab ) and go from 0 to 20 on Black Equalizer ? And if you have Night Light , please turn it off. And if there's nothing can you change Picture Mode to "sRGB" ? I do have this issue on "Custom" Mode (the default) and on "sRGB" mode.

Not sure what Night Light is. Didn't find it as a setting anywhere.

 

Did the other things and no dice on reproducing the issue. I went through all Picture Modes (was set to Custom originally), and did the Black Equalizer from 0 to 20. Nothing.

This is night light in Windows . If you already turned it off while testing the e), ok  !
