Also, what is the best way to calibrate. Set brightness/contrast to 100%,
then back off, or from 0 up. TIA

Buy or rent a copy of DigitalVideoEssentials or Monster's calibration
disc. Or find a copy of any movie DVD with the THX Optimizer on it.
They will have all the images and instructions you need. No single
image is sufficient.

The best way is to start at the middle and display a test pattern which
has the faintest image in the background. Move down until that image
disappears and then move up until that image just barely appears again.
A good program called 3 Deep came with an old video card and there are
others out there to download.

Some local libraries have DVDs for loan which have the THX optimizer,
although it may be hard to find the exact one out of hundreds. Anything
with lots of special effects that says THX. Also some libraries have
books on DVD which have a CD or DVD in it which do some of those tests.

The DVE and Avia calibration DVDs come with colored filters that you use
when calibrating your set. You can't just "eyeball" it. I understand
that library copies often no longer have the filters.
