Product Reviews


(1 stars) - Not worth the buy
This disc is not user friendly nor does it explain what each test pattern is properly used for. They just throw the test patterns and expect average users to know what each pattern is supposed to do. You are going to need a meter, if you are going to take some advantages of the test patterns provided. The basic contrast or black level,or even seeing all "red" , "blue" or "green" by using the filter provided don't help either. I recommend AVCHD from SpectraCal. Its free download that you can burn on a DVD - R, and can be use only on a Blu-Ray player. Other options to download for HD-DVD or other compatible players as well. Save your money and spend it on something else.



(4 stars) - Great...!
Had trouble with the individual screens for fine tune adjustments.
You may have better luck..



(1 stars) - Digital Video Essentials: HD Basics (Blue Ray)
This product was imported into Europe. It is a Region 1 disk and it will not play on players requiring Region 2.
Disappointed that Amazon did not advice of this, it must have been obvious to them.



(3 stars) - Lot of Effort
Takes a lot of going back and forth to watch then try to recall all of what they are telling you. Seems it could be a lot simpler.



(2 stars) - Need based on TV quality
This product is wholly unnecessary if you've got a half-decent television. Most televisions have settings that are 85% accurate to begin with.

Only worthwhile if you want to know at much as your TV calibration expert.
