Need advise in calibrating a Samsung DLP

[newf]

I have a Samsung HL-R5087W and a PS3 hooked up through Component Video and cannot seem to get the picture to look like it does at some of the retail outlets. I have tried the calibration DVD and it still does not even look close to some demos showing bluray.

Any help is appreciated!

If you describe some of your issues or desires, you may get more of a response.

Check the avsforum for a lot more responses.

Another, more costly option, is to hire someone who specializes in calibrating Samsung DLPs to do it for you.

This model is also fairly new and has had some big firmware/menu option changes from the previous models.

It's about 2 years old, so I wouldn't say it's that new... how close are you sitting to it?

Absolutely correct. I was thinking of the current HLT5087S which just had the review done.
There should be lots of info on tweaking this set out there on the net.
Here's the correct avsforum link

My apologies for the misinformation!
