    ... Below Black Video RGB 0-255 can't pass below black because black is 0...

    ... Unfortunately the same goes for YPbPr 16-235 yet with that video signal black is 16 so it could if designed to do so...

    ... While not a severe error, it is one that Videophiles should take note of since some small portion of consumer video content will exceed 16 or 235 by a few notches and an ISF calibration would setup a display to account for that anomaly...

    ... The 1920 line response was completely saturated, an error, but video YPbPr is limited to 960 lines so this should not be a problem...

    ... DVI RGB versus HDMI YPbPr Video Levels Typically any DVI input will be setup for RGB at the source and this display is designed specifically for DVI PC video levels, 0-255 when ever any digital RGB video signal is used...

    ... Conversely an HDMI source is typically digital YPbPr and uses consumer video levels 16-235...

    ... According to the manual you must name the HDMI input you are using for your computer, PC, "It is important to use the name PC so that the TV can process the video signal correctly"...

    ... This will change the formatting or aspect ratio options along with color resolution and response but it will not adjust the video levels back and forth from consumer video 16-235 to PC video 0-255...

    ... This leads to video processing artifacts related to pixilation along with a flat dynamic response from 70 to 100 IRE as noted in the review...

    ... This led to a discussion of how this movie did not look its age as if it had just been shot with an HD video camera...

    ... Unfortunately the images are encoded for PC video 0-255 and this input is setup for consumer video, 16-235, and that means that upper whites and lower blacks are crushed delivering images with artifacts appearing overdriven with highlights washed out, blacks cut off, devoid of color or wrong color...

    ... For those who know what good video should look like it will be obvious yet those who do not know any better may be potentially satisfied...

    ... Using a PC The display does not offer a VGA PC input requiring you have a DVI or HDMI digital video output instead from your PC...
