I used all of the default settings when I ran DispcalGUI, except for whitepoint. I set that to 6500k on both monitors. I made sure the brightness was set the same, and then I ran the calibration, but one of my monitors has a yellowish tint to it, and the other is a deep black that actually looks decent. I was wonderinf if this is a setting I can use to fix, or if it’s just my monitor itself that’s the issue?
Hi,
there may be a way to better match the blacks, but you’ll loose contrast ratio on the monitor with the ‘deep’ blacks. Here’s what you do:
- Run a “Report on uncalibrated display device” (“Tools” menu) on both displays. Afterwards, look at the reported black level (in cd/m2) and note the highest(!) value of both displays.
- In the “Options” menu, enable “Show advanced options”.
- On the “Calibration” tab, set black level to “Custom”, enter the previously noted black level value, and set black point correction to a value above 0%, e.g. 50% or even 100%.
- Use these calibration settings for both displays and calibrate & profile them again.
I tried using white and black level drift compensation to see if maybe that’ll help it out a bit, and it always stops working and says that theprofile wasn’t finished.

It’s not related to black point mismatch, but it can help device drift (instrument + display). What instrument are you using?
it always stops working and says that theprofile wasn’t finished. Dispread.exe, that’s wht crashes.
Please post the log after the failure, thanks.
