Sony user settings...
 

Greetings,
I recently had an ISF calibration done on my Sony KP-53HS30 rptv. The
results were very satisfying. However, I have subsequently readjusted the
user settings (brightness, picture, color, hue, sharpness) to be more
agreeable to us than the tech's settings. I would now like to make my new
user settings the default settings for the setup menu. Can someone tell me
how to do this?
Thanks!

You can change the settings in the service menu but you have to adjust each
one there with your consumer settings at the reset level in order to make
them the defaults. I would not recommend doing so, as you can do damage
messing around in the service menu. Just make the changes in your consumer
menu and leave them.

What specifically did you change from the ISF settings? Did you discuss
your preferences with the calibration specialist?

Thanks for the reply Leonard. Yes I did discuss user preferences with the
ISF tech. However, I found afterwards that different lighting levels in the
room necessitated different "default" user (consumer) settings. The problem
now is that if I make an ad hoc user adjustment to compensate for an unusual
one-time video display, my "default" user settings are lost if I forget to
change back to them manually. I have not changed any ISF settings. I
understand the dangers in the service menu. Just wanted to simplify
returning back to my "default" user settings.

What about the ISF user settings did you not like? Did it seem too
dark? This is usually the case. How long did you stick with the
calibrator's settings before making adjustments?

Obviously, the idea is for you to enjoy your viewing, your way. At the
same time, when calibration is done right, the set becomes more or less
consistent with video standards, which most viewers are not accustomed
to and find it too dark. If one can stick with the new settings long
enough there's a chance that one can become accustomed to it. The
benefit is that being closer to standards, it's also probably closer to
what the show/movie director may have intended. But you still have to
like it - it's your tv.
