The tutorial on how digital video is put together is very comprehensive, going into such details as bit depth and compression, but they reference 0-255 bits as the video luminance range, which isn’t correct. For video, the luminance range is 16-234 bits, which allows for below black and above white. For computer video however, 0-255 is correct, but that’s not what’s on a DVD or Blu-ray (or what’s presented in broadcasts, for that matter).
Spend the extra money to go for the double-disc WOW Blu-ray version, as the eleven clips of various natural scenes are simply gorgeous to look at in breathtaking HD, made all the more enjoyable by the fact that you will have already adjusted your HDTV to look its very best.

From the time it was introduced as a concept, the idea behind calibration discs has worked because every effort works towards better picture, so the World of Wonder DVD and Blu-ray discs from Disney must be phenomenal.

I still use my dvd set up disk. And still it amazes people just how out of wack the showroom calibration is. I use a disk I got almost 10 years ago.
