What’s the more acceptable colour space to target for this display in 3DLUT and the same for tone curve?
Would rec.1886 tone curve be suitable for a FHD display?
Or would an sRGB tone curve is more appropriate?
How does one decide?

Just use the standart settings – D65, 2.2 relative gamma 100% boo, 80-120 nits. Avoid bt 1886 or sRGB tone curve, unless you have a huge contrast ratio. As for 3DLUT, usually 2.4 relative gamma is OK.

Thanks for the reply. But why? Why these settings? Why no sRGB tone curve?

2021-02-17 at 0:44 #28678I doesn’t matter for color managed apps, they will translate the TRC. However anything other than gamma 2.2 have a higher risk of introducing banding. I own the same monitor and tried them all, stick to gamma 2.2.
2021-02-17 at 1:19 #28679ok, thanks.
May I ask if the below results are ok? I don’t really know how to interpret them.

Use CCSS, generic White LED 1nm from Xrite (bundled with DisplayCAL) or user made 3nm CCSS from colorimeter correction database.Anyway, your resulting grey color looks ok, but I’m not sure why you want a LUT3D for SRGB.

Don’t I need one? I don’t know… I’m lost… should my screen have a 3DLUT?
what is CCMX correction? you refer to the correction profile from the database?
I didn’t find a CCSS, I don’t know where it is in the list.

It’s useless unless the applications can use it. Most of them can’t, the ones that can use it expect Rec709 g2.4 content, not sRGB TRC.

Yes. a matrix correction. They are not portable between colorimeters. Do not use them unless you made it for your colorimeter

Default corrections imported by DisplayCAL (Xrite data and some user made) or https://colorimetercorrections.displaycal.net/
2021-02-17 at 12:14 #28692I went into tools > correction > Import correction > Auto
I hope that’s ok as well.
I did another round of calibration but this is worse than before. Check the gamut coverage. That doesn’t seem right.

When requesting help provide full data.

Sorry, I don’t know what data to provide. I’m learning this.
2021-02-17 at 14:35 #28699-colorimeter correction / spectro mode
-profile type
-profile itselft
-full validation optons (not needed if you provide HTML report since most important are stored there)Anyway, as a quick cheatsheet:
U2412M=> White LED IPS generic from Xrite bundled with DisplayCAL or custom CCSS from an user.
Use single curve+matrix+BPC profile or XYZLUT if you want a detailed one at the risk that some software may not behave as you want.
Validate with no simulation, if OK it should behave OK in color managed apps. For no color managed apps it may be easier to test after calibration with HCFR.2021-02-17 at 18:02 #28702-colorimeter correction / spectro mode

I’ve done XYZLUT+matrix

For games or general desktop non color managed apps you cant try HCFR or just see resulting profile TRC, check grey range a*b* (no simulation) and how far are red & green primaries from sRGB ones.
