I know the diffuser was not on the meter. It would not even attach to the monitor with it on, and the software tells you to take it off before taking readings. Thanks for the suggestion though.
Batpig, thanks for your help as well. Seems I run into you in lots places on avs! I was able to do the simple calibration (30% and 80% only) in calman last night. It appears that my set was actually not that far off. I could not figure out why it was fairly good when I would go into the service menu but then blue (sorry, not green like I told you earlier) would go up alot when I would go back out. Then I realized that I was selecting Cinema Warm (as intended) in the service menu but I had it in THX cool out of the service menu. I must have left it on cool after testing color temp with the bad meter, I had it on warm before. Once I changed it back to warm, things seemed to correlate much better. I tested a few blurays after this initial calibration (Cars, rattatouille, and DVE samples). Everything seemed to be a slightly more accurate with a little more pop but the colors of the cars on cars seemed to be a little more dull, maybe this is how they are intended to be. I will try out the next most advances calibration process and see if I can't get more points on my curve. I will try to get a seperate thread put up tonight.
As far as my meter conundrum.... The colormunki looks pretty interesting as it is a spectrophotometer like the i1pro and should last longer. It seems to be somewhat reasonably priced from amazon and B&H. Is buying it from spectracal worth the extra $400? Are the adjustments they make going to make it that much better of a meter? Also, I see that they have a calibration service to make it accurate for LEDs, will they do this for meters not purchased from them? Seems like you need to purchase a different license for spectrophotometers, will they convert this over or am I going to need to purchase it again anyway?
Sorry about all of the questions, I am really wondering what to do about a meter at this point. I am pretty sure I am going to send the displayLT back shortly as it is so far past factory calibration and I payed 160 for it.
