A couple of things that are important:
- Use the proper RGB/YCbCr format, so if your TV outputs 0-255 select Full RGB/YCbCr and if your TV outputs 16-235 select Limited RGB/YCbCr.
- Sharpness is only an overlay to make things seem sharper but in reality creates false contouring, it should be turned down to the point where there's no overlay. In most cases that would be 0.
- Disable DNR, Wide Color Gamut or any extra picture processing for that matter.
- Run the THX optimiser on selected Disney Blu-rays for seting up basic picture settings like backlight/cell light, contrast, brightness and pixel mapping (overscan).
- Never use copied settings (including D-Nice's) because that will never give you a calibrated display or even improve picture quality. Some people without knowing how a calibrated display should look like might see an improvement but that's what we call placebo. Delta Errors will be increased in both grayscale and CMS resulting in worse rather than better image quality. Every TV is different no matter if it's CRT, DLP, LCD, PDP or OLED. Just to give you an example I've got two similar displays (Panasonic 50GT60 and 42GT60) that I've calibrated myself and all settings are completely different in both 2D and 3D display settings.
