Currently I only have VCRs connected to my monitors and would like to calibrate them the best I could using what's available. In the future when DVD is added to my monolith of components I'll probably have it done professionally. Are there any VHS tapes on the market that can be used for video calibration so I can take full of my newly purchased TVs. Another point, should I wait a period time for break-in before any calibration is performed? THANKS IN ADVANCE •¿•
Follow Ups:
I'd wait 10 to 15 days for the TV to settle in. Then I'd rent a DVD player and buy the AVIA disc (you'll use it many times, my friend). Using VHS to calibrate the monitor now will only ensure that it will need recalibration when you hook up a DVD player with a component or Y/C (s-video) connection. For the time being I'd turn the "contrast" or "picture" down to about 50-60% and adjust the brightness up from say 30% until the black bars on a letterboxed movie turn grey then adjust down step by step until they're black again. Then turn the sharpness down to between 10-30% of maximum. I hope this is of some use and not overly simplified.
None that I have ever heard of for the consumer market. VHS days are numbered any way, especially when a new recording format is established.
