4 out of 5 stars Set it right   August 25, 2008
I'm a little advanced for some of this disk, but I even like the quality of the test patterns. I have walked the step by step and found the results to as good.


2 out of 5 stars irritating dvd   August 10, 2008
The vast majority of the content on this disc won't help you adjust your televisions picture. There is WAY WAY too much irrelevent technical talk that misdirects from the info that actually is important. The rambling filler on this disc really tests your patience. You have to replay key parts repeatedly to remember what you're really supposed to do with a test signal. If you own a popular tv model, try looking online to see if you can find a review where they list the way they tweaked the TVs settings. I found this on C-Net for both my tvs and tossed this disc aside.


5 out of 5 stars Just what I expected   August 3, 2008
The video quality is excellent; the Audio section allowed me to more fully understand how well my surround sound was working; while quite technical, it starts at the beginning and is easy to follow. It is very worth the price!

If your looking to get the best picture possible then the DVE is a must.The picture on my home theater after i used the DVE was incredible.It really made a big difference,and was easy to use.
