In Reply to: How to reduce contrast on new JVC? posted by marv on September 3, 2005 at 13:09:35:
Some manufacturers refer to the Contrast control as the Picture control (ie; Sony). This may also be the case with your display. What adjustments do you have access to in the User Menu (Color? Brightness? Sharpness?)?Here is some common interchangeable terminology:
Black Level = Brightness
Contrast = Picture
Tint = Hue
Color = Saturation
Follow Ups:
The TV has all of the following available adjustments:
tint,color,picture, bright,detail, color temperature, color management,dynamic gamma, smart picture. dig noise clear. The last 4 have on/off select.
I have tried a lot of different ways to reduce the CONTRAST ONLY and can not get it done. Reducing any of the above to reduce the contrast results in dulling the picture to unsatisfactory.
"Reducing any of the above to reduce the contrast results in dulling the picture to unsatisfactory."Sounds like you would need to get into the Service Menu to fix that problem (a job for a tech or someone who really knows their way around the Service Menu -- most definitely not for the average person). The Picture adjustment in your User Menu corresponds to the Contrast setting.
Here's another option. Have you tried a calibration disc ( Digital Video Essentials or Avia )? Both discs will work with the User Menu settings and do not require access to the Service Menu in order to help you get a better picture from your display. I've read comments from others that DVE is available at some libraries (free use!) and movie rental stores (a couple of $). One of these may help your situation as they would at least show you how far off the settings are and may even enable you to get a satisfactory picture without having to call out and pay a tech if the the display isn't still under warranty.
I have not tried any calibration procedures other than those provided by the TV menu. Your option sounds good to me and I will be checking on the disc(s) availability.
Thanks for your help.
Sometimes the auto settings lock certain parameters in and you can't affect them, or can't change them much. Turn those settings off then try.Bob Wood
