How to Tune an HD TV
- 1). Connect the HDTV to a DVD or blu-ray player, then insert a movie that uses a good deal of dark colors and black. This allows you to properly set the settings on the TV better.
- 2). Push the "Menu" button on the TV, then choose "Picture."
- 3). Navigate through the settings until you come to "Brightness." Pause the movie during a dark scene where there is a large amount of shadows. Adjust the brightness until you are able to see all the shadow areas without blowing out the light areas of the screen.
- 4). Choose "Contrast," and find a scene in your movie with a large amount of white or sky content in the picture. Adjust the contrast settings so the light-colored objects don't fade into the background or other objects.
- 5). Pause the movie during a scene with green, blue and red colors, then select "Color" and adjust the setting until all the colors look equal and no one color stands out.
