August 4, 2020A video display color decoder converts a YCbCr digital video signal back into its original RGB format. Modern video displays with HDMI digital inputs process video signals in YCbCr format. However, at the end of a display’s video processing path, the YCbCr component video signal needs to be converted back to an RGB signal, to be usable by the display’s imaging control device (e.g. electron gun and phosphors in a CRT, imaging chip(s) and filters in an LCD). This conversion of the processed YCbCr component video signal into an RGB signal is done by the display’s color decoder….
Sharpness Adjust
July 25, 2024The Sharpness feature in modern displays was originally designed to visually enhance low-resolution source content by enhancing the brightness transitions at the edges of objects in a scene. This edge enhancement creates a thin halo effect at all image edges….
Picture Mode
July 28, 2023As the first step in display calibration, you should investigate the effects of the various picture viewing modes provided by the display. Each of the provided viewing mode selections contains a unique combination of picture and operational characteristics. You want to select one or more of the available picture modes as a starting point(s) for the calibration. Depending upon the display model, some modes may be less suitable or totally unsuitable for calibration….
