Actually D-Nice has his settings a bit more aggressive than mine

D-Nice recommends:
Contrast: 45
Brightness: -2
Color: +10

I'm at 43, -1, +3...so while I'm at very similar brightness and contrast, I backed off the color a bit. I did this after calibrating using the tool on Ratatouille, which is pretty handy.

No, no, no! Those are settings to be used ONLY with the break-in DVD! - Russell 22:11:30 01/20/08 (2)
His 'reference' settings are:

Contrast: 29
Brightness: 0
Color: -13
Tint: Red 2
Sharpness: -11

Those other settings are meant to be used with the break-in DVD only. (Something I haven't used.)

  I know D-Nice isn't the be-all, end-all with respect to these things, but I figure that he's got more experience than I have, and that these settings are a good starting point. As I've mentioned before, I think the picture looks pretty damn good with these settings!
  
  Enjoy,

  - Ok, thanks...this does help the reds which were too strong before - Jazz Inmate 22:41:42 01/20/08 (0)
    It is a more natural picture to drop off the sharpness and color. Thanks for alerting me about that.
