Had the settings overlaid just to snap pics to post here. The brightness and contrast settings, those are what let me see the bars pulsating to point(s) as indicated in the AVS HD 709 test patterns, 'Black Clipping' and 'White Clipping' clips respectively. I recall when I last calibrated with a regular Blu-ray player, those values were further apart, with saturation and tint closer to median.

If the player is broken you can't calibrate around it as usually it lacks proper dynamic range on output.
You should be calibrating the input to be correct and then testing with the source.

Thanks for the info, but Hardware devices in that thread are being compared to what remote control ships with the Box. Like for like.
WeTek for example also has an App that mirrors the screen and provides extra functions too. That is also not included in that thread.
Then there are a bunch of users that simply want One single remote control in one Hand (myself included), Beer in the other, and don't want to stuff around with Phones or Tablets, draining batteries, and dropping into annoying sleep modes just to simply control a Android media player properly.
This is the exact reason Android TV OS was invented, for simple sensible big screen TV Apps control.
