I've set RGB range to full in xrandr, and then set limited output in Kodi. I've tried every combination of video settings, and I've toggled between "Normal" and "Low" black range on my plasma (confusing names on the Samsung...). No matter what I do, I seem to either get crushed blacks or an image that looks like it has a white mist over it.

What the heck can I try to get things looking right on this TV? I almost get very mild aspect ratio errors at every refresh rate other than 60hz. I basically have tiny black bars (and I mean only a few pixels) on the sides when I run at 24hz/50hz, but it's fine it 60hz. This is probably unrelated to the RGB range, but I thought I'd mention it in case it's relevant.

If you want to use "Normal" (RGB 0-255) on the F8500 uncheck limited output in Kodi. If you want to use "low" (RGB 16-235) you can either use RGB range to full in xrandr and limited output in Kodi or leave Kodi alone and use limited range in xrandr. You can use the 3-White Clipping.mp4 and 1-Black Clipping.mp4 files from this pack of calibration patterns to confirm it's working correctly.
