What do you use for ambient light while watching Video?
I heard that the surrounding light should be 10% of the light of the screen. What worked for you? I tried 2 forty watt bulbs with blue shades, but this did not help. Turning on the light in the dining room caused too much glare.
I wanted to get this set up before I have an ISO technician calibrate my TV
