Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Probably a good tool to have for an HD TV.
I do believe that this product is well worth the money it costs. I only purchased it to use the test patterns.To figure out how to use them, you have to go through rather long and boring sections of the video.They should probably sell a disk with just the test patterns and a pamphlet on how to use them.I would have paid more to not go through the other stuff on the disk.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good HD Primer for Tech-Heads

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - irritating dvd
The vast majority of the content on this disc won't help you adjust your televisions picture.There is WAY WAY too much irrelevent technical talk that misdirects from the info that actually is important.The rambling filler on this disc really tests your patience.You have to replay key parts repeatedly to remember what you're really supposed to do with a test signal.If you own a popular tv model, try looking online to see if you can find a review where they list the way they tweaked the TVs ...
