I am unable to change any of the image adjust settings (V. Positon, brightness, contrast, etc.). They are simply greyed out.

On the base just above the speaker you press the button with the number 1 on it and it will bring up all the settings you are looking for. Then use the number 2 button and the arrow keys to make adjustments. Hope this helps.

I have this laptop and this is the first time I checked if I could actually do that. I was only able to find the option to change the brightness but not the color. I do not think there's a way.

There is only one brightness setting. The only way to change it would be to install a dimmer.

There is an option called CATS, turn it off {menu-->Picture, scroll down to C.A.T.S.} When set on it adjusts the screens brightness according to the ambient light

Mine is doing the same. It flashes the image for a second and the image disappears...only to be replaced with the *no image* image. I tried all the different settings and wiggled the tray around, but to no avail. I am looking to call technical support. There is very little help, or FAQ online.

Here are some settings I found that might help you out: Main Picture Menu: - Picture Mode: Movie (set this before any of the rest!!) - Backlight: 10-20 (based on preference and ambient light in room, you can change this at the end to your liking) - Contrast: 100 - Brightness: 52 - Sharpness: 60 - Color: 51 - Tint: G50/R50 (center) - Picture Size: Screen Fit (otherwise you could very well lose some pixels) Advanced Settings: - Dynamic Contrast: Off - Black Tone: off - Flesh Tone: -5 - RGB Only Mode: Off - Color Space: Custom --- Red: 61, 0, 0 --- Green: 0, 50, 0 --- Blue: 0, 8, 54 --- Yelow: 89, 77, 0 --- Cyan: 0, 50, 50 --- Magenta: 53, 0, 50 - White Balanace: --- R-Offset: 23 --- G-Offset: 18 --- B-Offset: 22 --- R-Gain: 22 --- G-Gain: 31 --- B-Gain: 26 - Gamma: +1 - 10p White Balance: Off (trust me, not worth it!! Unless you have a professional calibration tool) Picture options: - Color Tone: Warm2 - Digital Clean View: Auto - MPEG Noice Filter: Off (removes details from many scenes) - HDMI Black Level: Low - Auto Motion Plus: Standard - Cinema Black: Medium

If you look at power save options you can adjust the brightness I believe. I had similar issues, but the brightness is usually enough in power save mode that I don't have an issue with it.

Out of the box, the TV settings are "vivid". At the very least you'll want to set it to "standard" under picture settings/picture mode. This wont fix the black problem by itself, but then under advanced settings there are a couple of adjustments that will, namely "gamma" and "black corrector". Play with these a bit and you'll get better black detail. If you'd like a full listing of user calibration settings for viewing in a darkened room, here is a link that will give you those presets. Try them, and if you like it, you're done! Otherwise, play around a bit with the settings I mentioned to achieve the desired results. Here's the link: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10060430-1.html?tag=mncol;txt I hope you find this helpful, I'm using these settings myself and am pretty happy with the results. Be warned, however, once you reveal black detail, you may notice unevenness in the black uniformity of the screen. Good Luck!

I haven't found a setting on the camera for black and white. I can use a photo editor like Microsoft Picture Manager to change the color and set the color saturation to zero and have a black and white photo.

I just figured this out today, the middle one brings you to a screen where you can adjust the brightness, contrast etc, and the ones on the top and bottom are plus and minus for adjust the settings, hope this helped.

Sorry man I have not used it yet. On my others camera it is a setting I can change. I'll look at the camera when I get home and see if I can help out. I have been out of town. I'll get back this weekend

Check this forum for your favorite setting. I used post 274's setting and it looked great~ Don't use the setting right out of the box, it's horrible and way too bright. http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=901174

It's not possible to change the colors. They are separate from the configuration software.

Try pressing the 'SCENE' button twice to get a settings menu. Select the 3rd icon down to select a different focus, ie SO, VI (vivid) which I use

In all honesty, the default settings on this guy were pretty amazing. I did mess with the brightness a bit, but other then that I left it alone. I recommend you play around with the settings as the previous comment said. Everythings going to be different according to your tastes. You can also google/youtube the monitor settings as well. People usually post their settings there.
