Here are my settings after using my picture calibration DVD.
Custom
Color Temperature Warm
Contrast 15
Brightness 52
Sharpness +4
Color 35
Tint R2
Backlight 30
Dynamic Backlight (DCR) Low
Insignia Motion 120Hz Off due to the Amount of Baseball I watch
Backlight 30 (My DVD didn't have a way to measure this, so according to my personal taste.)
Overscan On
Noise Reduction Middle
Tint R2
Sharpness +4
Adaptive Contrast Middle
All auto settings off
I've never had to purchase a low budget tv before, but I'm on disability, and so I took the plunge with truly what I could afford. My HDMI Inputs are connected to Directv, a Samsung Blu-Ray player, and Roku. I currently have nothing else connected. At first I thought I was going to be taking this set back. The Insignia looked way too HOT coming out of the box and the Whites were bleeding. Now, after calibrating this TV, it looks quite good for a very low budget purchase. I now can truly say, I'm enjoying watching it. Please, let me know if you have better calibration software. Mine is a number of years old. If you do so, I'd be interested in hearing your settings.
Enjoy.
