    Hello everyone,

    I’ve been searching the forums and the documentation. But I have a hard time finding information on how to properly calibrate an LCD or LED TV.

    From the reading I’ve done, I understand you need to us a untethered calibration with patterns generated by test chart editor.

    What I want to do:
    Hook up my i1 display pro to my macbook. Run a pattern generator on my TV from my apple tv and/or my blu-ray player and calibrate using the settings on the TV. My tv does have some fancy 10-point white balance controls. It would be great if I could use those.

    Is there anyone that could help me along?
    Much appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Gilles

    AVS Forums They have lots of information about calibration. You can ask questions there on calibration software not related to DisplayCAL.

    AVS HD 709 – Are free calibration test patterns you can download and burn to a disk.

    HCFR – Free windows program that lets you do manual calibration. (There is a mac version but it hasn’t been updated in a while.)

    Greyscale & Color Calibration for Dummies – Which has information on how to calibrate.

    Calibration

    – 10 Point White Balance controls can be used to calibrate both greyscale and gamma, for manual calibration.

    DisplayCal can create 3D LUTs (most accurate way to calibrate for movies) with a PC hooked up to a TV.

    MadVR is a video renderer that supports 3D LUTs. All I know of is a Windows version. You can run Windows through Boot Camp or through Virtual Machines on your MacBook.

    Im also learning calibration myself too.
