And I almost forgot: In case the quality leaves something to be desired, sometimes adjusting your tv settings can help out. In the very beginning, I always tried to make the image sharper, but we all know, oversharpening is terrible for the general image quality, but then I reduced the sharpening on the filters (so no artefacts would be created) and turned up the sharpening on my tv.

Since most TVs aren’t that aggressive here, you can have a nicer image without doing damage on it or finding it visually distracting. Same thing goes for color and brightness settings.

Sometimes it actually does help. I have created specific profiles on my panasonic for that. One mode is called SciFi-Old and specifically calibrated for DS9, Voyager or other SciFi content of the 90s - most of them share similar challenges like weak colors/lighting, bad contrast, blurry/soft overall image and so on.

Then again the mode mentioned before can’t be used for HD or present-day content, cause it makes images that already have a nice quality look artifical somehow, so you best remember the settings before changing them. Save a seperate profile on your device or just write the old and new settings down and place them by the tv.
