I will have to try some of the LED bulbs on my bedroom fixture over the weekend to see if it is a issue with the wiring on the dining room circuit.
The flickering/pulsing of the LED bulbs in the dining room isn't immediately obvious since it is so fast. I've read anecdotes that it is due to the small/cheap LED driver that has to be built into the base of the bulbs. At another house the CREE led bulbs would hum (audible noise but no visible flickering) on a new lutron sliding dimmer (not a smart dimmer but it was a new design that was for use with LED Bulbs) . We had better performance with some Philips LED bulbs (looked like this style) but they seem to be higher wattage equivalent and are more expensive
Do you use 3400k in the daytime, if so, then turn on a damn decent LED or Incandescent light in your room.
I assume you don't have windows (the glass kind, not the system) in your room, because you'd see how yellow your screen is.
If you need a decent light, either get a 100 (or if your socket can handle the heat - 200) watt light bulb, or a really bright 5000K (the K is for Kelvin not thousand) color temperature LED bulb of comparable or higher brightness.
For 100 watt brightness equivalent, that's 1,750 lumens.
For 200 watt brightness equivalent, that's (you'll need two bulbs to match this) it's a staggering 3,405 lumens!
250-300w equivalent LED bulb
It says in the title that it puts out 4321 Lumens, but in the description in the middle of the page, it says 3,700 which I think is more accurate.
DO NOT buy this light. It's not reliable. I'm just posting this here to show that bright light from LED bulbs just might be happening!
Get a few of these bulbs they are a warm 2700k white, and 1,700 or so lumens.
If you'd like the "daylight" 5000K version, Cree made that, but I really thought Philips would have one too, but here's the Cree 100w

Enjoy! Also have you tried darkroom mode?
Also, you can go WAY below 3400k, drag your slider to the far left for night time, and choose "expand color range". You'll have to restart but it's so worth it.
