Settings on the 57H81 (1 Viewer)

[Michael De Costa]

Over the weekend, I finally had my 57H81 delivered. I will not be able to do the AVIA settings for at least a week or so, and am looking for some average setting to run my TV at until then. I have completed the 9 point convergence but have yet to do the 56 point one. So far the picture is decent but once calibrated, I know that the picture will improve to an even greater level. Any advice on these settings?

Start in Movie Mode to disable SVM
Contrast: 35-40, or use ALS
Brightness: 55-60
Color: 52
Tint: -12
Sharpness: 30
Fleshtone: Off
DNR: Auto
Film
Temp: Medium
These are remarkably constant/similar with the H81 model sets. HX81 require slightly higher contrast and brightness.
