Long time reader, first time poster with a couple quick questions regarding TV calibration....
First my equipment
-Xbox 360
-PS3
-46" Samsung model number LN46a530
- Yamaha Receiver model number RX-V663
-Digital Video Essentials Blue Ray Disc
Everything is hooked up via HDMI through the receiver. I just found out that my reciever has been clipping BTW and WTW, which as I understand it, means I need to set my PS3 to limited, and my 360 to "standard." Now, as far as calibrating goes, if I unplug my ps3 from my reciever and plug it directly into my tv, I can view the BTB information.
My question is, can I have my PS3 plugged directly into my TV calibrate for black with the BTB (changing the settings to full), and then plug it back into my reciever and change all the settings back to limited, will that result in a properly calibrated image?
Also as I understand it, YPrPb is for Video and games are in RGB....now since i'm using a blu ray disk it is in YPrPb...will that result in a properly calibrated image for RGB when playing games as well?
And last but not least....When using the reverse grey ramps scale in DVE, when setting contrast I can never get the white to clip, even when set to 100. Is there another way to calibrate contrast level? Or is there a setting in either the TV or the PS3 that I can change temporarily to get it to work?
Thanks alot to anyone that can help, even if you can only answer part of my questions, it will make me alot less confused! Thanks!
