I'm guessing English is not Pat Man's first language, in which case thanks for starting a potentially useful thread in much better English than I could post in any language other than English (and that includes Portuguese).

I know it's not his first language, and I appreciate that.  But I already mentioned it previously.

I remember trying to do this when I couldn't see diddly-squat on the last three Harry Potter DVDs and found out that my telly was perfect but DVDs really were that dark.

 U.S. English is my one and only language, I don't know the difference between a thread, forum, etc.

English is my second language. Think of a forum like the trunk of a tree. Each thread is like a branch, and the posts are the leaves. I hope it's clear enough.

I might very well use some of your advice.

  Step 1:let your T.V. run for 30min 

  step 2 :pop in star wars episode:III ROTS DVD in your Blu-ray/DVD player,go to options,THX,then go to video test. 

 3:go to Your t.v menu and click on picture settings.   

 4:make sure your T.V. is not overscaned(go to post 2 for more info) 

 5:set color tone to the warmest setting or color temp. to the lowest setting(6,500k;Note: the picture may look a little reddish or greenish at first,but will look natural in a few days).

 Step 6 : read all 3 post(not the Edited post 1),start at the gamma, post 12;and stop at the Brightness,contrast,sharpness;post 15  http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/How-to-Calibrate-you-TV/topic/14577/page/1/

7: Follow the instructions in the THX video test on the ROTS DVD   

I hope this sums up everything, go to post 2 and watch the videos(in order), for more information.6500k is the standard for PAL and NTSC.5500k for Internet.

If you have a back-light be sure to put the backlight sensor on.What this will do is only lower the back-light so if you are in a dark room the T.V. won't be bright,so your eyes won't get messed up.If you have a Plasma or an OLED you don't need to worry about back-lighting

This is all very useful information and exactly the sort of thread we need on Off Topic (DIY, How to draw, recipes etc etc, these would be much appreciated topics).

If I were to make on slight itsy-bitsy serving suggestion It might get wider appeal if you were to present it as delivered by a character with a television set for a head.

Or maybe a character with a TV-guide for a face.

Something a bit like this :

Just sayin'.

The linked-to videos are also included on the (free) AVS 709 disc. But they're convenient to have separately as well.

  I didn't know that, I only have a 2001 computer(with CD+R) so I can't get stuff off line.
