In Reply to: Will calibration make tv last longer? posted by bob1 on July 16, 2003 at 17:20:13:
You are experiencing "torch" mode (aka manufacturer "stupidity" mode). Leave it on this setting and things will begin to happen -- but they won't be good.Until you get a calibration disc (Video Essentials, Avia or Digital Video Essentials - 8/03), use these settings for your display:
Brightness/Black Level: 60% of full setting
Contrast/Picture: 30% of full setting
Color/Saturation: 60% of full setting
Hue/Tint: 50% of full setting
Sharpness: 30% of full settingThey won't be perfect, but they should be close to proper calibration levels. Your current settings will win you a trip to the Toshiba service center. Trust me -- you don't want the tour.
