Adjusting TVs to your home lighting

Originally posted by Larry_OHF: Everytime I install new drivers from NVidia, I have to recalibrate the color scheme because the one I have saved gets deleted when I install new drivers, and the color and brightness resorts back to a default. It is darker than I can operate on. That is when I go in and choose the preset that I have already mentioned...rather than trying to achieve it myself, as I would be hard pressed to balance the whole thing the way this preset does for me. And that is it. Have you tried reinstalling drivers and starting from scratch? That might be the best thing to do. Does Radian have any presets at all in their color management?

It's a low-end package but i c wot i can do. Gimme a sec.

Tip: for projection screen TV's-- the lower you keep your brightness and contrast, the longer the 3 lights last (RGB). I have my brightness set very low (31 out of 100) and contrast at 42. works fine, and looks nice!

Projection screens are dying now though, so wait for OLED 2nd gen tech to come out.. OLED 1st gen runs HOT, and costs as much as some new cars. [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's made it much worse... I knew i should'na stuffed around with it. To answer the question, no, Radeon doesn't have any preset options. At least not with my setup. If you wanna change anything at all it's all done by trial and error in the display/settings/advanced menu. And even then, the results are only temporary. As soon as you run a program, (even sumfin as trivial as media player) half the screen is rendered at one gamma setting (too dark) and the background is rendered at another (too bright). Is this an ATI thing, or an XP thing?
