Too high black level on Samsung LD player
Hopefully, there are some LD fans out there...
My old Samsung DVK-500 LaserDisc player tends to display a fairly elevated black level. Do any of you guys know if there's an easy way to tweak this without having to hand it over to a specialist?

See, I don't like the idea of having to adjust brightness, contrast etc. each and every time I watch a LD. And then back again.
But thanks for your reply, anyway :-)

That is the same as black level

Thanks. Well, the menus on this particular model are pretty scarce, next to totally absent, actually. But there may be some possibilities inside the player, a pot meter or so. Haven't dared opening it yet...
I will check this out.
