Does anyone have any personal experience calibrating a LCD w/ DVE they can share? I don't want to buy another tool if it isn't going to yield better results than what I have now.

I'm using a hardware player, which has picture, brightness, color, and tint controls---handy as the Sony TV disables color and tint in 480p mode.

I have the black level set (at least as well as I...

No, I'm talking about the moving white bars in the lower portion of the contrast test. Since LCDs don't bloom or suffer power supply problems with high white levels, the white bars are supposed to...

LCD TV calibration?

I’m trying out a Sony 23 inch LCD TV and am having problems calibrating it using Avia. I’ve used Avia many times on CRTs with good results; LCDs, however, are a different beast.

Black level is...

The $350 Definitive Technology Sub 80 is a good value for the $; it's smallish and reasonably clean.

I thought the series grew progressively worse w/ each episode; the last few shows were especially painful to endure. It’s not something I would buy or watch again. Why not save your money and watch...

Drawing a meaningful distinction between “re-adaptation” and a “remake” strikes me as pointless and pedantic. That said, I think there have been some great remakes. I suspect the success/failure...

Who knows; it’s hard to tell how successful this might be from the trailer. One thing did strike me as odd---the plot bares an uncanny similarity to the adventure game, Sanitarium.

IIRC what happened to the troops is not explained. I assume the planet destroyed them before they reached the station.

It is the simulation of his twin brother.

My first thought was that you are overdriving the amps and the receiver’s protection circuit is shutting down the unit. But your speakers are pretty efficient, so unless you are listening at absurd...

I don’t care for the extended cut; that ending just goes on and on and on and with each additional second the “craft,” which is lame to begin with, melts into a steaming hot pile of Velveeta.

Funny. You’d think someone with “supreme” in their user name would be more cautious about calling something pretentious. ;- )
