Best way to calibrate TV?
« on: March 24, 2015, 08:14:45 am »
I'm using a Toshiba CRT TV with Windows 7 and GroovyMAME but I never calibrate the brightness/contrast or anything else and the colors look pretty bad.  (the whites are often completely blown-out)

What is the best way to calibrate the TV?  Is there any software for Windows that runs at low resolution that I can use to calibrate?  I really don't want to try to connect a DVD player or anything to the TV to calibrate it...

    A vector scope hits the targets of color saturation, (I believe adobe has a windows version) But you can pick up an old analog scope on Epay pretty cheap....My guess however you got some other issue going on with that monitor and should maybe try a different one first.
