This may belong in the tech tips section since it's a calibration question, but it relates specifically to the Despecialized Edition, so I figured maybe someone here has experienced the same issue. I've got two TVs that I watch movies on, a Samsung 1080p 50" LED smart tv in the living room and a Samsung 720p 42" plasma in the basement (this is where the bulk of my Star Wars viewing occurs out of courtesy to the family). The DE looks spectacular on the LED display, but on the plasma the seams between the different elements are super obvious and distracting. Does the plasma just produce an intrinsically harsher image, or might there be a fix for this in the screen settings? I'm currently using this guy's settings, and I've made a blu ray from the MKV.

I think it probably does belong in the tech section. But I wouldn't simply use someone else's settings for color calibration. If you don't want to get a colorimeter, you can use those settings as a starting place perhaps, but don't be surprised if it needs tweaking.

I've tried the values people post for my TV model, and they're atrocious for mine (and in the opposite directions from default settings compared to how I've actually got it calibrated now).

But yes, the 'seams' between sources can stand out more with some settings than others.
