How to Reduce LAG & Latency on ROKU TV for Video Games (ALLM GAME MODE)
0Got it. Here's how to reduce latency on your Roku TV for video games without using angled brackets:
1. Turn On Game Mode
This setting disables image processing to reduce input lag.
Steps:
Press the Home button on your Roku remote
Go to Settings
Select TV picture settings or Picture settings
Choose the HDMI input your console or PC is using
Scroll to Game Mode and turn it On
2. Use the Best HDMI Port
Some Roku TVs label one port for better gaming performance, such as HDMI 1 (eARC) or Game.
Check the labels near your HDMI ports or refer to your TV's manual to find the one with the lowest latency.
3. Turn Off Extra Video Processing
Features like motion smoothing or noise reduction can increase lag. Disable them:
Steps:
Go to Settings
Select TV picture settings
Choose Picture mode and set it to Game or Normal
Go to Advanced picture settings
Turn Off the following:
Noise reduction
Action smoothing
Local contrast
Dynamic contrast
4. Enable Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) if Supported
If your TV and game console (like Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5) support ALLM, your Roku TV can automatically switch to low-latency mode when gaming.
Make sure:
You are using a high-quality HDMI cable
The console has ALLM or Auto Low Latency turned on
Your Roku TV is connected to an HDMI 2.1 port (if available)
5. Use a Certified High-Speed HDMI Cable
Old or cheap HDMI cables can cause display lag or performance issues, especially at 4K.
Make sure you're using a certified high-speed or ultra high-speed HDMI cable.
