The Official Pioneer 8G Kuro Settings/Issues Thread - Page 354

Follow-up to this... How do you distinguish between inputs? For example, how do I set the white balance different for HDMI-4 than HDMI-7 ??

In the PS3 display settings, the RGB limited or full setting has HDMI in parentheses so I knew what he was referring to. Yes you can set the PS3 res settings to auto and it will output the source res.

If I remember correctly, you can't set them up per input, only by mode.

I ask the following with full appreciation of the old adage; A Little Knowledge Is Dangerous.

That being said… While looking through the service manual for the Pioneer PDP-5010FD, I notice there are 3 additional RGB settings (see enclosure). In addition to R-High, G-High, B-High, R-Low, G-Low and B-Low, there’s the following:

R-Level
G-Level
B-Level

What are these for? Aggregates of their high/low counterparts?

.. maybe the service manual would help; check post#10542:

"While looking through the service manual for the Pioneer PDP-5010FD..."

.. oops!! completely shot-over that, thanks.

no worries

1) It doesn't explain what the settings are for. (That's why I posted the question)

2) You pointed me to my own post.

Thanks, your response was very helpful!

D-Nice,
I went to the very first post in the thread and tried to downloan it to a dvd-r, cd-r, etc. and I can't get it to work. Excuse me for my ignorance but how can I get this to work? Would love to get my 5010 "burnt in". Thanks
RG

.. you're welcome.

.. what burn software are you using; is the burn successful or error out.

BTW, does anyone know where I can download the service manual PDF for the 1150HD ?
Thanks

Type "pioneer pro 1150 hd service manual" into google and several sources will appear. Haven't found one for free yet unfortunately.

I may have misunderstood his question. I thought he was referring to the AV selection modes (Movie, User, Game, etc.) in the user menu.

First, when it comes to a plasma, "burn in" is bad, "break in" is good. You definitely don't want to get your 5010 "burnt in"

To burn the image to a dvd, you will need DVD burning software. If you don't already have it, you can find many free burning apps and instructions with a quick google search. Try typing "burn iso to dvd" into google and go from there.

Hi Todd, do you mind posting your calibration charts. I've got an 1150 also i'm thinking about calibrating. Would love to see the before and after charts.

I've had no problem with changing them in 50VS (24fps/72Hz) mode, too. You have to change both if you want to adjust the RGB settings for Blu-ray @1080p/24 input as well as "normal" 60Hz sources.

Well, I do with my 5080. When I change 60VS, the changes do not affect my 1080p/24 signal. I have to change it separately for the latter (50VS). The factory settings were slightly different between the two as well.

Maybe my set is a deviant, but I've verified this several times.

Did the calibrator go into the Service Menue or were all the adjustments done in the "Picture" , "Pro Adjust" etc.?

Same for me, and I believe ikeb as well.

i hate to say it - but i think dnice is wrong in this case.

i modified 60 and 50 separately

D-Nice, can you explain this in a little more detail for us? I also noticed when playing Blu-Ray movies at 1080p24 via PS3 that the settings I applied for 60VS where not showing the improvements in color and depth when playing a blu-ray. When pausing the blu-ray at 1080p24 and going into the SM I noticed the table said 50vs and the default settings were slightly different than 60VS and not the same as I changed for 60VS. So I copied down the 50VS default settings and also changed them per your settings. The color and depth improved on blu-rays like it previously had for hd cable when I changed the 60VS offsets. Can you explain why changing the settings in 50VS is not correct?

If I am reading it correctly, the service manual for the 5010 seems to agree with D-Nice: the service manual says that drive sequence Video60 and Video72 use TBL1 and that Video50 uses TBL2.

The service manual also says:


In practice, at least on the 5080HD, it doesn't seem to work that way for some of us. I interpret the sentence in italics (emphasis mine) to mean that the drive table being used by the display is the one that will show up when you enter the service menu. Those of us with sending 24 Hz signals into the 5080HD are seeing TBL2 in the service menu, which, according to the service manual, is intended for 50 Hz signals.

me too.

Hi there guys!

My name is Alexander and I live in Brazil at the moment and I have recently decided to buy a PDP5010FD after reading and seeing some of the posts at the forum pages.

The problem is that here in Brazil, things are more complicated to get than it is at the US. As an example, I have bought this Pioneer plasma almost 3 months ago and only today I have received it here in my home.

As you can imagine, that just makes things not as easy for repairs of exchanges as it would be if I were in the US.

That being said, can I get some help with setting up my PDP5010FD? Which of D-Nice's settings is the most updated one for the Break-in settings and also is there anything that any of you might find that would be important for the first hours of use?

From what I have seen, everything looks fine with the display. No dead pixels or any other factory defect. I have watched 2 or 3 minutes of a Blue Ray disc and from what I have seen, everything seems ok. That is very good for me: It means I won't have to go over the tremendous trouble of sending it back to the US for warranty or service. I bought it at Invision Displays and imported it myself.

Best regards,
