If I'm using the Panasonic UB9000's HDR Optimizer -- which is supposed to apply its own tonemapping for static HDR10 metadata, supposedly, according to Panny, for improved performance over a display's own efforts -- do my display settings still need to be in their default HDR positions?

In other words, when it senses an HDR signal, my Samsung automatically maxes out backlight and contrast, and puts local dimming on high...but if I'm using the HDR Optimizer of the disc player, do those settings still matter or apply? Should they be left alone if the player is supposedly doing the tonemapping work?
