I've been in contact with the guy who's company is making it and am arranging a bulk discount for Forum members. I'll be posting as and when discussions are concluded and if Spectre agrees the Power Buy.

If it comes out in the near future, count me in if you guy are going to be doing a bulk purchase.
Thanks

Hi Ad,
This is the Link for it.
Its basically a calibration DVD that allows you to setup your Sound and Picture for best performance. I have never used one myself, but from what I have been told, this one will support Pal.
Hope this helps
Regards
Amelia

Yes  - but I would be surprised if it's as good as AVIA.
Put me down for a copy though  .

Another calibration disc, allowing you to set up picture (brightness, contrast, colour etc), as well as sound levels.
Other such discs include Video Essentials (rumoured to have a new version coming), Ultimate DVD Platinum, plus Avia as already mentioned. All so far have been NTSC discs, hence the interest in The Calibrator.
How much difference PAL will make is another question - particularly for projectors - anyone care to comment?
