THX OptimizerUse THX Optimizer to calibrate the performance of your home theater system so that it produces picture and sound quality equal to the original movie – as the director intended.
THX Optimizer software allows the user to optimize the presentation of THX Certified DVD titles on home theater systems. Available only from THX Digital Works, THX Optimizer is a carefully designed set of audio and video test signals embedded on all THX Certified DVD titles released since summer of 2000. The Optimizer test signals are identical to the final reference tests used by filmmakers during the mastering of each release. These signals allow the user to perform a series of audio and video tests and adjust the home system's performance to guarantee the best possible presentation of each movie – and experience each one as the director intended. - THX Website
Yeah, I'm sure. Here's another.
A third calibration DVD that you can use if you can not afford either AVIA or VE is the THX Optimizer found on most THX certified dvd's. There is a major drawback to using this utility however. Each THX Optimizer is made specifically for the dvd it comes on. So you will get varying results from movie to movie. For instance you do not want to use the one from Fight Club, nor do you want to use the one from Toy Story. It is best to try and find a well balanced and neutral movie both in color palette and brightness.
