In Reply to: Calibration posted by Joseph on August 25, 1999 at 23:26:35:
I believe that your Asian TV standards are different from those in the US (unless you are NTSC over there). All you need however is a standard calibration tape, or preferably a calibration DVD. Such sources provide detailed instructions on how to properly calibrate your set using the on-board TV controls.
Hope this helped!
Thanks! I'll try to get my hands on one of those.We do have NTSC over here. Oddly enough, our terestial broadcasts are in PAL but when it comes to specialist AV, our source material is NTSC i.e. laserdiscs and DVD's, which is because most (if not all) of it is imported from the US. Videocasette , which is locally manufactured, is in PAL.
Of course I could go on about pirated merchandise, incidently in PAL, most rampant now is the HORRIBLE Video CD.I'll go off topic here for a moment. I don't know how these people do it, but we have ALL the latest movies on pirated VCD here. ALL. Without exception. More surprisingly, almost ALL of these movies have the words "this is for promotional purposes only..... if you have rented or purchased this casette please call 1-800-NO-COPYS..."
Needless to say, the quality really sucks so I don't bother with them. But sadly, most people don't really bother, so pirates do a booming business.
That's all for now.
chiao,

p.s. just another point, the illegal VCD's cost approx. £1 each. In comparison an original DVD about £26 and a McValue meal about £1.50
