[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 1001440, member: 76888"] I should also add the most important thing to get right is brightness and contrast Play the video called black clipping in mediaportal Turn tv brightness down to 0 Gradually increase brightness until you can just barely see that bar #17 is blinking Now play the video called apl clipping Check that you can still see #17 blinking, if you can't adjust brightness up / down slightly Now play white clipping You should see 230-234 blinking (if white level is too high there is no blinking) Make note of the current contrast (white level) setting on the tv. 1. Now adjust white level to 100% if the blinking bars disappear then gradually reduce until they re-appear. White level is now adjusted correctly. If you get eye fatigue from watching movies then you need to reduce the contrast/white level a bit or lower the backlight setting. 2. If the blinking bars are still blinking at 100% contrast then your tv doesn't not clip white levels, return the contrast to the original setting. You have to set the contrast so it is high enough to make things look bright without giving you eye fatigue or artifacts. If you are not sure just leave it at the default setting.
