Calibrating video w/ Sound and Vision.

I just completed calibrating my direct-view Panasonic TV with the Sound and Vision calibration disc. I used the blue filter to adjust the color and tint. However, I have a question about some of the settings.

These are the settings on my TV after calibration.

Color - (40) - ranges from 0-63
Tint - (25) - ranges from 0-63
Brightness - (45) - ranges from 0-63
Contrast - (40) - ranges from 0-63
Sharpness - (10) - ranges from 0-63

I used a blue filter to get these color and tint settings. I even had a couple different people verify the settings. With these settings, however, skin tones appear to be really orange. (Until now, I have always set the color to 25-30). Should I go with the S&V settings?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

My opinion is set it up with the disc, and if it don't look right just adjust it without any tools until it looks good. Thats what I do anyway

Try calibrating w/ Avia and see how the settings change.....

I have not used Sound & Vision, but HAVE used Video Essentials and Avia and I HIGHLY recommend Avia over VE.

Peace.....
