This thing provides the needed test patterns and a reasonable level of instruction to get the job done.
My system looked much better after I got done.
My only negative is the "tutorial" portion was more than a little verbose as it threw in subjects that were completely beyond the users ability to adjust or affect. It was kind of like they were showing off their TV decoder design prowess. I found myself saying "OK, get on with it."
Also, the menu makes it a too difficult to get to the test patterns. They are nested way to deep.
Just put them out front. Once you have endured their monotonous droning on and on, you don't need any further instruction. You should be able to go directly to the patterns to use them as you need.

I bought this DVD on a recommendation. I watched it and it didnn't make a whole lot of sense to me. It is not an interactive program that guides you through the set up of a new TV. Maybe if you are an installer you might get more out of this than I did. I cannot recommend this as being essential to set up a new TV. I found that the settings that others had suggested on product specific web sites were much more helpful and my TV looks great. I did not use this DVD for anything. If you are considering buying it, let me know I'll sell you my copy.
