Makes sense for me to detail the equipment I have first then explain further:

LG B7 OLED
Denon AVR-X3600
Xbox One
Sony UDP700
...various other bits.

Having ARC enabled is useful but thankfully not always necessary. If I run ARC via my LG B7 audio delays with Dolby content are very noticeable and the delay is so wide, it can't even be corrected with sync.

As an example beeing having to feed my Xbox through the receiver then to the TV instead of going to the TV direct which may be necessary with other devices at a later date. The problem here is that I only then really have one input going to the TV which is the receiver, therefore a single set of picture presets.

This means I have to change picture presets whilst transitioning from any of the inputs.

I have a second monitor output on the receiver so I'm contemplating using that as a dedicated game output to the screen on HDMI 1, having that always set to game picture mode, and the other monitor output being set to my standard picture settings for everything on HDMI 2. Beyond two sources though I'm struggling to see a way of being able the calibrate the screen for the 3rd, 4th devices as they're added.

I may very well be being thick, or be sadly stuck due to use cases and the manner in which the B7 handles picture settings.

How do you have yours configured? Interested in anyone running 4k Xbox titles in a similar situation.
