You have calibrating programs or comparison pictures for it.
Because every tv models is different.

You know those brightness settings in game which goes like this.

Invisible

slightly readable

clear readable.

well i talk of definition over 100,for example now i have put 70/100 but sometimes i see the game over saturated and for that i would like to know the perfect definition or the most closer...
Thanks man!!!

Every device is different, no one can tell you the best setting for your set up.

You can use the Digital Video Essentials dvd to calibrate your television. You can also use THX certificated movies to calibrate your television. They usually have a "calibration chapter". I know the pixar movie Monsters Inc has one...and probably the star wars movies, but I'm not too sure about that one.

These dvd's are not perfect though because you use your own judgment to determine the "best" settings, and things like lighting in the room can effect it

I hope this helps

Indeed, this forum isn't where you'll get your answer. You could try AVSForum, or somewhere like http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/. Search for "Calibration settings" for your model TV. However, things can change from device to device, so perfect settings for one TV don't work for another. And the environment (room) affects it. And then different people's eyes and colour perception are different too.

There's a THX calibration program on Pixar DVDs, but it was utterly rubbish. The results were plain wrong. At the end of the day, I just tweaked my settings until I got the best-looking picture I liked, showing a test pattern on PS3's photo viewer. Click this link and the image I used was the one at tomyeah.com, 8th from the end. I'll go with my personal settings over mathematically accurate yet rubbish-looking any day of the week!

Picture settings?

I have 2 50"plasmas (768P and 1080P) and here contrast never above 80/100 ,cause can destroy your panel(and pocketts -> engergy savings...),sharpness even in games never high as 18/100,colors and bright not satturated 45/100.

My english is bad too cause my first language is portuguese(*),but i have used most of time same settings contrast(and cell light in plasma always in 10/10),bright for games and movies and sharpness,except colorr in games im used more values like 48/100.

In blu ray movies im use warm colors and you have to try (avsforum could help) setting for D6500K* to color fidelity as directors movies created and wanted. Sharpness always low (8/100 to 18/100) for not show artfacts or some inperfections for older movies converted to high definition.

For games resolution im used 720P and let tv upscale do your work(and spare some power processing spent in upscale software/hardware for more frames,texture etc) ,but in blu-ray movies im setting to 1080P.

But i dont understand this low level of sharpness cause if you have the sharpnes 18/100 you wont see any differences comparing to dvd cause with this sharpness 18/100 you´ll see the blu ray like a dvd,i think that the sharpnees should be in 70/100 minimum.

Sharpness (IMO) should be 00/100, if you're watching cable/dvd's maybe some but not much (I never used to use any), for bluray/hi def games I definitely wouldn't use any.

edit
Because you can't make the image any "sharper" it's just some fake effect that actually makes the image worse.

Completely dependant upon the set. Some will set the "sweet spot" (where there's no processing) at 0, some at 50 and some at completely arbitrary points. On some sets if you set it below this point they'll add an artificial blur, so you've got to fine tune it manually with a decent test pattern.

when i put the sharpness to 0 i see all content HD like if was a dvd.If you up the sharpness level then you will see all the details no?

 

[holsty101]

No.

The sharpness setting is an *artificial* processing feature that ultimately harms your picture quality (although unless you're sitting on top of it a 26" screen is probably to small for you to really be able notice it either way).

If you have your sharpness set to 00 (or like brain_stew (I'd not heard about sets adding a blur ... guess I haven't owned enough HDTVs ... ) mentions, whatever the zero value is for your tv) you will not turn HD content into dvd quality, it doesn't work that way.

Rather than struggle with the language barrier it might help you to find an A/V or home cinema forum in your native language and talk to them there about it, I think that might make it easier for you to understand why sharpness is generally considered a bad thing.
