Today on MiesnerMedia, we delve into the intricate world of hardware calibration for LG TVs. To achieve this, you'll need an LG TV that supports a hardware LUT, a trusty color meter, a service remote, and the all-important Calman software. The team even enlisted the help of Calman experts to ensure a flawless calibration process. Despite the potential cost of the software and equipment, when bundled with your display, it's a far more budget-friendly option compared to high-end reference monitors.
The first step in this calibration adventure involves using the service remote to disable pesky auto-dimming settings that could throw off your grading game. With the TV prepped, it's time to fire up Calman on your computer, select the OLED option, and begin the SDR calibration journey. The software works hand in hand with a color meter, which reads values from the TV to make necessary adjustments. Connecting to the TV and finding the IP address are crucial steps in this intricate dance of technology.
After calibrating luminance and grayscale, the team moves on to the 3D LUT calibration, offering different intensity options to suit your preferences. A quicker calibration method is recommended initially, with the option to delve deeper for a more detailed calibration later on. Post-calibration measurements ensure that the display meets the high standards required for professional work. The meticulous process pays off, with deviations well within acceptable limits. For any lingering questions or technical queries, the Calman experts are on standby in the comments section to provide further insights into the world of calibration.
