Well my screen has clocked up just over 100 hours use since its installation last week so I thought I'd try the DVE disc.

Got to say first impressions of this disc aren't very positive. I sat and listened to all the narrative, sometimes twice so I was absolutely sure of what I was doing.

The settings I ended up with were:

Contrast: +10
Brightness: -10
Colour: +12
Tint: + 6
Sharpness -14
Colour Temp: Mid-Low
DNR: Mid
MPEG NR: Mid

So I thought I’d try another DVD, placed LOTR: Return of the King and was very disappointed at how soft and dark the image was.

After some tweaking using various paused images etc I ended up with quite different settings.


Contrast: +25
Brightness: -2
Colour: +9
Tint: +8
Sharpness: -4
Colour Temp: Mid-Low
DNR: Mid
MPEG NR: Mid


I’m going to keep tweaking and maybe try the DVE disc again but for the time being I’ve found my settings best for me.

So come on all 436/506 owners post your settings here for comparison.

Cheers,

Serkan
