Figuring that it must have been my color settings, I decided to wait until my copy of DVE arrived so I could adjust it with the color filters.

So I adjusted it, and the orange tint got even more promenint. It makes films unwatchable. Watching Dewey Cox today, people's faces looked like they had a horrible fake tan. So I adjusted the colors to make them look ok, and then other people who look like oranges. Couldn't get a good setting no matter what I did.

So I called Best Buy (yay extended warranty!) and they are coming out next weekend.

Anyone else notice this? Or did my TV get the Hiva?

Got a link to those settings on CNET, I have the same TV and can't get the settings quite right.
