Sony KD34XBR960 Tube

[The Big Blue]

Anyone using the PS3 with this set? How should I set the PS3's RGB and Superwhite settings?

Thanks.

I have the Sony KV-34XBR800......I'll have to look at the settings, but I believe I have them turned off.

yes the 60 are better then the 70's, the 70's do not use 'Super fine' tube, the 'super fine' tubes have smaller gaps between each pixel making for a better image.

From everything I've read the 970 is very good but the 960 is better due to the SFP tube. I love my 960. There are huge threads for both over at AVS.

I tried full rgb again and it's just not right.

The 910 was the first with the Super Fine Tube followed by the 960. The 970 went back to the regular Trinitron Picture Tube.

From the Playstation site:

RGB Full Range (HDMI)

Adjust the output settings for TVs that support RGB full range. For RGB video signals, the range of color scale that is input varies depending on the TV in use. This setting is for use when the TV is connected to the PS3™ system using an HDMI cable.

Limited RGB output signal is output in the range from 16 to 235.
Full RGB output signal is output in the range from 0 to 255.


Hints
If black sometimes appears bright and sometimes appears pale on the screen when [Limited] is selected, set this option to [Full].
If black appears dull on the screen when [Full] is selected, set this option to [Limited].

From the Playstation site:

Y Pb / Cb Pr / Cr Super-White (HDMI)

Adjust output settings for TVs that support Y Pb / Cb Pr / Cr input signals. Super-white signal can be output when playing a DVD, Blu-ray Disc (BD), or AVCHD-format video. This setting is for use when the TV is connected to the PS3™ system using an HDMI cable.

Off Disable super-white output.
On Enable super-white output.

Hints
If image quality is reduced or the image does not look right when this option is set to [On], set to [Off].
[Automatic] or [Y Pb / Cb Pr / Cr] must be selected in [BD / DVD Video Output Format (HDMI)] under (Settings) > (BD / DVD Settings). *
* When [Automatic] is set, the TV in use must support a Y Pb / Cb Pr / Cr input signal.

About x.v.Color / x.v.Colour
When this function is set to [On], content from AVCHD-format video files recorded in x.v.Color / x.v.Colour can be played with a wide color scale.



x.v.Color / x.v.Colour is a trademark proposed by Sony as the name to be assigned to devices that support "xvYCC," which is an international standard for color space in moving images. An advantage of x.v.Color / x.v.Colour is that it can reproduce a wider color scale than the conventional standard.

Hints
A TV that is compatible with x.v.Color (xvYCC) / x.v.Colour (xvYCC) must be connected via an HDMI cable
Content from an AVCHD-format video file recorded in x.v.Color / x.v.Colour is required to use this setting.
