View Full Version : Pioneer Pro-150FD - NOT using ISFccc Option

I'm attaching two calibration files for my 110FD, one for ISF-Day and the other for ISF-Night. It is interesting to see the tradeoffs between trying to get a smooth gamma curve, vs. a smooth gray scale. ISF-Night gets the gamma right around 2.2, but the gray scale is a bit bumpy. ISF-Day gets the gray scale smoother, but the gamma is a bit lower (2.1) and not quite so smooth. There are minor color errors to be fixed, especially cyan. But, overall, I'm happy with both of these. I like the fact that one can have two settings to compare. My feeling is that 2.2 as the gamma threshold is a bit high, and I am going to see tonight if I like 2.1 better.

Comments welcome! Thanks again to Shawn for his really neat program, which made this so much easier. I wish I could get reliable performance from the internal HCFR test patters, which would make calibration so much faster than using the AVS HD-DVD, and manually stepping through each pattern.

I just joined this forum. I'm quite active on the AVS forum. I just finished calibrating my Pro 150 using i1 Display 2 and HCFR. I looked your charts and noticed that you also have a high dE for Blue. I also calibrated my Fujitsu P50 (40) and the blue dE was also high. Don't know what this means. Here are the settings I used and my file.

Jim, you should be able to flatten the grayscale and reduce Delta E using the gamma controls in CC. Thats how I did it.

Hello to all;

I use a i1pro and Calman v3. I have a Pioneer pro-150fd. I am trying to use Calman pattern generator. I have a Quadro nvs 14m video card in my laptop and use a VGA male to male 15-pin to connect to my tv. My problem is that the only way i can get a display on my tv is to use the PC mode on the 150fd. So all i have to work with is the RGB settings on my 150fd. I need to be able to use all the settings that are only in HDMI mode. What am i doing wrong.

Thank You.

I believe you are not doing anything wrong... the video card would need to have an HDMI port...

Why not use the GetGray Disc and/or one of the free ones with CalMAN?

Thanks for your reply Shawn;


Yes i use the avshd for color and dvehd for grayscale. However if you are saying that getgray is as good as the ones listed above then i will go back to getgray it is easer to use than dvehd.

I'd like others to comment on GetGray in comparison to the others... :D
