great bang for the buck in HDTV
The monster DVD video brings out the HDTV settings in your home as opposed to the factory settings that are suited to the bright lights in a store. Colors, sharpness and picture size are easily adjusted and you can fix errors in your DVD setup as well. Blackness, white settings and color correction are fixed to ISF standards and your HDTV will come alive.

no rocket science
overpriced ?? certainly! helpful?? yes! i've used this on several hdtv in the neighborhood including my own. it's simple and concise. once you fast fwd thru the monster cable propaganda the images used to calibrate are real world and to the point. this disc confirmed my tv was adjusted pretty close but the skin tones needed improvement. any novice and some not so novice videophiles can benefit from this disc imho. calibration isn't rocket science and most people can do it without tools but if you want conformation that your four figure hdtv is giving you your best possible picture this product is for you. it gives you simple explanations and instructions that are easy to follow.

If you know nothing about TVs and like watching a dumb blonde...
I, like others, saw this in a store (Fry's Electronics) and should have read the reviews before purchasing it.
All the settings it helps you check could be done in less than 10 minutes if you didn't have to listen to Jenna's dumb-blonde rambling from a script that's designed to show you that she empathizes with how stupid you are about your TV. Only two settings needed minor adjustments, and I never made it to the Monster advertisement or video because I couldn't put myself through any more of the drivel.
It does do what it says for checking the few things it covers, but it puts you through far too much annoying and useless talking to be worth the price.

Kind of ambivalent
For quick and simple picture calibration, this is exactly what it claims to be. I hope an actual ISF professional would be a bit more involved than this. It marginally improved my DVD settings, except my problem wasn't with my DVD picture, it was more my satellite I was trying to fix. But now that I give it some thought, I guess all calibration DVDs are by definition only designed to work with DVD settings. Glad I didn't spend more than I did on it.

HDTV calibration Disc
Bare in Mind, this will NOT do what a professional HDTV calibration will do. (About $300.00 in my area ) But, For getting The Blacks just right,I was amazed at how many shades of "Black" there really are! lol! The sharpness and Black adjustment alone is worth the price! Color And Brightness etc.are indeed better than before i used the disc. I highly recommend it! It is Very "USER FRIENDLY"
At 1.37 inches, this robot may not be as complex as the bipedal 6.3-inch Tomy iSobot—the former-smallest bipedal bot according to the Guinness book of world records—but it can do plenty of things, from walking to finding its way out of a labyrinth to play soccer. It will arrive to europe later this year and hopefully to the US soon, because I want a full army of them, like the girl in the product shot from the Robo Japan expo. [Toylogy]
