SAMSUNG UE32B6000 Configuration

BuriaL:
Contrast enhancement is "dynamic contrast".

The aspect ratio matter if you watch different tv channels or the tv get different input from different sources. Some tv shows use 4:3 and some 16:9. On a widescreen you get a "pillarbox" when displaying 4:3 correctly. Its a black line on each side of the picture.
With a pc youre software should take care of the aspect for you. If you set a resolution that the tv dont support, youll get no picture..

"Auto Motion Plus" is what youre samsungs "image smoothing" feature is called.
For the most accruate gaming picture its prolly best to turn off.
For tv shows and sports its prolly gives a less choppy picture. Good movies and series are allready smoothed and tampered with, so it prolly dont matter.

Samsung seem to have something called "Edge Enhancement". Try turning it off.
Sharpness enhances the edges of a picture. Less sharpness means "smoother" picture. High sharpness means sharp edges and "grainy" picture.

Backlight is like having a lightbulb where the dimmer is the backlight. Every screen have different amount of actual light it emits.


This tread actualy got me to start tampering with the contrast and brightness again. Less brightness actualy gives a better picture i think.. With C:75 B:62 i seem to get more colors..
I feel slightly obsessive :P

By the way, the calibration dvd..dont you need a calibration tool for that?

Edit: Misleading typo.

No. that at home ones wont set RGB perfect but close enough. same with brightness. They walk you through each step with an image displayed telling you to adjust a setting till the picture looks right. And so on. its just a bunch of test patterns that you use to adjust to the most true color your eyes can see. Its not as accurate as a real calibration tool. but its better then nothing.

Most of them take you through at least 5 steps. steps 1-3 can be done to near perfect using just the dvd. 4-5 is when having true calibration equipment comes in. You can get close enough without though.
black level
white level
sharpness
color saturation
tint

http://www.videoessentials.com/DVE_HDBasics.php is one of the easiest to understand. Any thx certified movie will have at least one test pattern under the setup menu. its not as in depth as these.

The discs usually contain sample scenes of say 1080p to see if you get a 3:2 pull down causing judder or a 3:3 pull down.

I have EDGE LED, this greatly sucks. I should have done my research, but then again my t.v looks beautiful. I'll check out that guide thanks, but not sure about spending more money,

Nothing sucks about an edge lit LCD. both ways have there goods and there bads. The only difference LED gives you over a normal lcd is a truer black color. If you set the screen to black on an edge lit/normal lcd the screen still gives off some light. If you do it on a local dimming the screen gives off no light.

It takes about a month to truly get the best picture out of your tv. All your inputs will behave differently and you have to find the middle setting for it all to work. Only real high end tv models have independent settings per input. I would start by downloading a calibration dvd. it will get you 90-95% to a nice picture. then fine tune on the input you use the most.

Reminds me of all the people who can't differentiate between dual core, two cores, and core2 duo. Love the magic of marketing.

Oh how true. To bad the life span on OLED is not that great. What is it orange or blue that goes out like 5 years before the rest of it and the horrible burn in. LED tv's that most people buy are better on the buck electricity wise at least. and they do offer a better true black level.

That stupid sony xe-1 was like 2 grand when it first hit the stores. and its not even 1080p. it slike 576p or something. Samsung showcased a 40" OLED which no one will ever afford. OLED is just not meant for tv I dont think. It has its applications but not in a tv set.
