Default VIZIO: Share Your Custom Display Settings

Alright guys here are my settings that I use for my Vizio GV42L:

Picture menu

Backlight: 60
Contrast: 80
Brightness: 58
Color: 53
Tint: +2
Sharpness: 5


Custom color temperature

Red: 128
Green: 127
Blue: 116


Advanced picture adjust


DNR: Off
Black level extender: Off
White peak limiter: Off
CTI: Off
Flesh tone: Off
Adaptive luma: Off
Dynamic contrast: Off


I've had this TV for awhile now and though I'm not happy with the TV on a whole I'm really happy with these settings for PQ. I pulled these off of the CNET tips and tricks, but it was for a dark room so I turned the Backlight up to 60 as opposed to 6 for a medium bright room. I have a PS3, 360, Tivo 2, and a Comcast HD DVR. These settings seem to work well with all of the components, unlike some of the other settings I've used that need to be changed with brighter or darker scenes. I've got to wait a little while longer to upgrade, but since I've found these settings I'm not quite as bummed as I was.

Default Vizio 32" Plasma

I have the Vizio 32" Plasma 720p that actually accepts 1080p to my awesome surprise.

I was just wondering if anybody else has this tv and can provide me with some good settings.

Thanks,

Default Vizio Gallevia 47" LCD

Picture Setting:

Picture Mode: Custom
Backlight: 90
Contrast: 80
Brightness: 50
Color: 65
Tint: +2
Sharpness: +5


Color Temperature:

Red: 128
Green: 128

Advance Picture Adjust:

DNR: Off
Black Level Extender: On
White Peak Limiter: On
CTI: Off
Flesh tone: Off
Dynamic Backlight: Off
Adaptive Luma: On

I'm happy with these adjustments on my Vizio, not the greatest but very good. The problem i have with this tv is that it's so bright(i know lcd is brighter than plasma) that the black levels are hard to adjust to get the "right" look so i turning a notch down on brightness and raising the backlight helped a lot!

Default VIZIO: Share Your Custom Display Settings

This thread is intended for members to share their custom picture settings for all Vizio model TV's.

To help make life easier for others...please try to include (but not limited to):

TV Model Number?
Weather it's an ISF Calibrated setting or Disc calibrated setting?
What Input Connection this setting is used for? (ex. HDMI, Component, Composite etc)
What device is connected? (dvd player, bluray player, cable tv ..etc)
What kind of room lighting you have? (dark, dim, bright etc)
Any key features that are turned on or that should be turned off?


Additional Info: *Calibrate Your HDTV*

*Please do not criticize settings being shared...it is a courtesy to those who cannot afford an ISF calibration or do not own a calibration dvd.

*Please also keep in mind that using someone else's settings may look good but it does not necessarily mean it will be ideal for your viewing pleasure and may require some tweaking.


*It is also NOT recommended for anyone to go into the Service Menu to make any adjustments.

Default Vizio 47" LCD TV - VW47LF

This was a bargain TV purchased from Walmart and it's VERY aggressive in terms of PQ. After going through some calibration settings w/ various options - Sony Disc's Color Bars, AVIA, THX Optimizer; here are the settings that look absolutely astounding to me.

Picture Mode: Movie
Backlight: 78
Brightness: 49
Contrast: 58
Color: 39
Tint: 0
Sharpness: 4
Color Temperature: Normal

---Advanced Video---
DNR: Off
Black Level Extender: On
White Peak Limiter: Off
CTI: Off
Flesh Tone: Off
Adaptive Luma: Off

The PQ looks great but I'm not a videophile, but I'm very pleased with these settings.

Lightbulb Near perfect settings for Vizio VX32L

After having this tv for nearly 2 years, I think I have finally tweaked the settings to have the best picture possible. This worked on Kindgom of Heaven and the Bourne Collection. At fist the images were faded, grainy/noisy, and just not as sharp as I have seen these tvs displayed at Sams Club and online pictures. Then I started tweaking myself, and the results came out great. Try these and see if they are as good for you as they are for me.

Picture Mode: Custom

Backlight: 52
Brightness: 50
Contrast: 45
Color: 60
Tint: 0
Sharpness: 4
Color Temperature: Custom
--Red: 127
--Blue: 127
--Green: 127

Advanced Video

DNR: medium
Black Level Extender: off
White Peak Limiter: on
CTI: off
Flesh Tone: off
Adaptive Luma: off
DCR: off
