Video calibration and testing is difficult and demanding. The result, however, is our ability to provide objective information relevant to you, but our projectors and the preferred look and act in their absolute best TVs. To consider the need tens (if not hundreds) of video test patterns, in order to properly evaluate the performance of the screen is the main time-sink in the process.

Sex with a little knowledge, Blu-ray and a decent test can make their own assessment of the screen and the basic configuration. Hand navigation CD is tedious if it is reasonable and limited trial. If you want to increase the speed and accuracy of the task, a test pattern generator dedicated (GPT) will change your life.

Enter excellent and Ultra HD 4K DVDO, AVLAB TPG. Read our full review after the break.

TPG-input HDMI is also compatible with MHL for easy loading of the connected mobile devices. After each digital output, an optical S / PDIF audio output available if required.
