If delta E is one of those straight lines I guess congrats are in order but I have no idea what I'm looking at so maybe I should be mocking the pathetic pink line that barely gets off the bottom of the graph...

Does anyone other than tp4 know what they're looking at?!

What's in the picture is the tuned hardware native tone response of the TV, pre-software-calibration.

TVs nowadays have decent 11 point gamma controls.

Out of the box it's always wrong,  because it takes too long on the manufacturing line to do a thorough calibration,  the <$2000 tvs don't get that lengthy final step.

Using hardware internal controls to get as accurate as possible BEFORE software calibration will produce the best final result.

Tp4 has avoided using HCFR for so long is because the instructions are terrible... It's by far the worst written of all the guides out there.

There isn't a SINGLE youtube video teaching people how to use HCFR. YET, it is pretty much THE ONLY complete pack free tool out there for general consumer hardware-control calibration.

HCFR + Displaycal lets you get 95% there of what a $400 professional calibration would do.
