My year old Panasonic PZ700U has suddenly gone dim on the Cinema setting. It looks like the picture is half the brightness that it was yesterday. My custom setting (which is what is was ISF calibrated under) looks fine though.

When I checked the Cinema settings with DVE, I had to raise the brightness up 3 clicks to get it where it was before on the pluge pattern. Even after this, Cinema still looks darker than before. Any thoughts?

Make sure CATS is off and that black level is set to "light."

Thank you! I'm not sure how CATS was turned on, but it was. All better now. I guess drinking and calibrating a set don't go hand in hand.

Drinking is "ok" but it is the calibrating that is dangerous! LOL
