Please help with a calibration

[darkserpant]

I am looking for some calibration settings for my Mits. 73735. I have been sifting through pages and pages of forums to locate some of your guys settings that you had done with calibration disc or profesional calibration. i dont have a ton of money cause of our lovely economy but I had saved up $30 for the dve calibration disc and holy crap was that ever above my head. So that was useless. And it took me a over a month to save that $30 up. So I am looking for someone who wouldnt mind sharing their settings with me. I know every tv isnt the same but it is someplace for me to start. Unless someone in my area can come over to my house and calibrate mine. My zip is 17026. I live near Harrisburg,pa I can buy a couple cases of beer for your trouble. A friend of mine owns a beer depot. So if any of you guys could please help me out I would be forever grateful. Thanks

Be sure to calibrate the TV before drinking all that beer!

I don't have that TV, so I can't offer you help on the settings. However, from what I've read, I believe that the settings will differ from room to room and from set to set. I'd be happy to try and help you with understanding your DVE calibration disc, though. I've used the Video Essentials disc and might be able to help guide you.

www.TweakTV.com may have some recommended settings also..but using the disk is still a great idea!

Adam is right in saying that using others settings will not yeild good results. There is too much variance from set to set to be accurate. Using a disc like Adam suggested is a great place to start. I can also tell you that anything more advanced will require SM adjustments.

Hey, I only know that stuff because I've read your (and other people's) posts on here!

Fortunately, several modern displays, like Pioneer Eilte and Samsung can be calibrated mostly through the user's menu as they provide secondary controls for color you will not find on many earlier models except in the SM.
Of course, it still takes the proper instrumentation and technique to yield the best results.

Bandphan is right in saying that Adam is right.
Fine, I didn't have anything better to do with the last 90 seconds. What's your point?

Maybe not everyone is wrong, but we are all right!
Have a great Sunday!
