This is how I set my 40LE-A656 up before it died on me a couple of days later.

I used the HD-DVD version of Digital Video Essentials and I liked the following settings:

Backlight = 7
Contrast = 95
Brightness = 50
Sharpness = 0
Colour = 50
Tint = 50
Black Adjust = Off
Dynamic Contrast = Low
Gamma = +1
Colourspace = Auto
Flex = 0
Edge = Off
tvycc = Off
Colour Temp = Warm2
Size = Just Scan
Digital NR = Off
100Hz = Low
Blue = Off

I use those settings on all my HDMI inputs (4 devices) and I am quite pleased with the results. The only thing I find is that the colours are a little bit too intense, but that is the correct colour/tint setting as per the DVE filters.

It could simply be that I have had the colours too low on my old TV and I am just going to have to get used to these. I could always simply drop the colour down to about 43 (that level of colour looked better to me), but the problem with that is, the DVE filters shows that the colour balance is off at that level, so I will stick with 50 for now.

I will expreiment a little bit more once I get my replacement TV on Friday.

Cheers,
Kevin.
