I did see where AMartin was banned possibly. Maybe JVC hired him and it was a conflict of interest to be on AVS.:)

I would love to see the post that did it in for him. :)

...

I have really cut back on the amount of time I spend in the pj forums. Ruined well pardon the pun ruined it for me. Along with some of the other culprits and their antics, I got tired of it. I am not sure how many posts of mine have been deleted both innocuous and inflammatory.

Me too. That's why I came here and spend more time on French, Polish and German websites!

...

With Mike and Craig being commercial contractors, they could put up some how to guides from the simple to extravagant.

An idea I have always thought would generate a lot of traffic would be a resource database with pertinent data on pjs. Something along the lines of calibrated on/off cr, ANSI cr, lumens and sound level. If it was done by the same person in the same controlled environment, then it would be a nice reference that people could conveniently click to.

Yes! They both could provide their settings and calibrations for an RS4500!

It is good to see they are starting to ban people with an agenda at AVS, up until now they have just banned the people trying to correct the liars and misinfo spreaders.

If they could ban the annoying dog over there now I would be happy, but I don“t think it is going to happen. Does anybody know the reason for AMartins ban other than his agenda?

I glanced over this thread last night.

Kal over at Curt Palme explained it to me. He said Vertical Scam buys all of these forums for ad placement. They need page hits or impressions to make money. They could care less about the content. I think one of the reasons Scott and Mark are doing more stuff like reviews is to try to generate the traffic that Vertical Scam wants.

I have really cut back on the amount of time I spend in the pj forums. Ruined well pardon the pun ruined it for me. Along with some of the other culprits and their antics, I got tired of it. I am not sure how many posts of mine have been deleted both innocuous and inflammatory.

I was really reading and learning a lot over in the speaker forum. With Floyd Toole participating, it was quite informative.

Could this forum take off? Possibly, but it would need some work. Number one you guys need content. Whether how to guides, a resource database or reviews, the forum needs a reason for people to come over to look, read and then participate.

I have other ideas, but that is a good start.

It's interesting though to see all the DLP folks over there living in a time warp.  They keep quoting the issues about LCoS machines that were true 10 years ago in the heyday of DLP, but which are pretty much obsolete.

Since I had my RS4500 calibrated by Jeff / Accucal, my settings would be pretty meaningless. This is a projector that needs calibration to get the best out of it. And lets face it - $500.00 for calibration is a drop in the bucket for a projector at this price level.

Right. So after reading this thread and not seeing any point in reading posts at AVSForum I decided to register here.

Now I just bought a 260ES (Sony 285ES) and decided to live with it rather than wait 5 or more years for something positiv to happen, which it very well might not.

I think I can squeeze out a small percentage of HDR, small screen and projector close. I hope some good knowledge will come my way being a member of this forum.

Isn't it odd that when I put on a HDR movie it is often quite dim if I don't adjust contrast and such? Read at LightSpace that SMPTE standard for HDR is that the same eggwhite is 100IRE no matter if it is HDR or SDR signal? So why are some UHD so much dimmer?

And I've tried to get info on what the 'Contrast Enhancer' really does, it is a quick way to make it look better but I think I see some crushing of the dark parts...

Seems like getting a good UHD picture that conforms to some standards is going to be really hard...

Head over to the thread Craig linked to above and we'll see if we can troubleshoot with you to figure out what's going on.

Rob,
As Craig said above, I am not sure his settings would be that helpful. Actually I was thinking of something simple like this.
https://hometheaterhifi.com/volume_8_2/dvd-benchmark-special-report-chroma-bug-4-2001-list.html

A simple little database or chart with the significant info that would be easy to find in a google search. It would be something that people would refer back to a lot and also stop in and check out the other content.

I'll put my basic settings in a thread.

Will do. Anyways, Andreas21 I really hope you don't stop posting in forums as you wrote, it is just finding the forum that fits you.

It is good to be considerate but I can agree in general with people who say p.c. culture is destroying sensibilitets and humor everywhere.
