Hey friends!
I hope someone can help me with this. I have the following setup:
- Intel NUC D3410WYK (Intel HD 4400)
- Panasonic ST60 (accepts full color range 0-255)
- Kodi Isengard latest nightly running on windows 7
- I'm using ripped blu rays of high quality as source
The NUC is connected to the ST60 via hdmi, nothing else.
I'm looking to get the most out of my setup picture quality wise (withour using madvr) and I would be grateful for some guidence with my final tweaks. Right now I have set things up like this after some research:
- Kodi - full color range (haven't ticked the box for limited color range) / dxva-hd rendering + software decoding.
- Windows (Control panel): Display driver settings - full color range / Video driver settings - both set to "application settings" value
- TV: set to full color range (RGB 0-255)
The picture looks very good but I'm getting some greyscale banding here and there. I've also tried changing the setup to this (se below) but find the blacks a bit crushed, although more "pop" in the colors. Still some banding though:
- Kodi - limited color range 16-235 / dxva-hd rendering + software decoding.
- Windows (Control panel): Display driver settings - full color range / Video driver settings - both set to "application settings" value
- TV: set to limited color range (RGB 16-235)
Could someone with more knowledge about these things describe to me the optimum setup for correct picture? Or do I have to live with the greyscale banding?
Thanks!
