Yes sir, another one coming soon.

This is a great video and I am really happy to see you using DisplayCal. Basically everything you did is spot on. However, one mistake you made is on setting the brightness. The center part of the brightness meter isn't a real "target", it's just the measured brightness at the start of the calibration process. This is because in the calibration tab, you had "white level" set to "as measured" instead of a specified cd/m2 level. The "set white point" dialog box after measuring the ambient light level only affected the color temperature calibration, not the brightness. So to clarify, when the brightness level dropped 12%, that wasn't dropping from any real standardized target, only from the starting brightness. In the future, I would recommend changing "white level" from "as measured" to 80-100 nits for a dark room, and 120-150 for a bright room. However, if your room is as bright as yours, you might want to go higher.

While I do miss your consistent videos I will say that I'm quite pleased when you do come out with one because it's always either 1.awesome, 2. incredibly useful, or 3. both.

Can't wait for more videos! Make them at whatever pace you want, I just want you to know that we'll be right here to watch them.

@Barnacules OMG! I spent like an hour over the weekend trying to calibrate my monitors. I so needed this! Thanks

So happy to see you uploading again Jerry, I miss your videos a lot. Can't wait to see what comes in the future!

Your workspace is looking very well. Love the Viper GTS Coupé model.

Great to see you back on KZread, and back on form! Brilliant video!!!

Glad to see you back. Outside of Video editing those of us superior beings with multi monitor getting all of them having the same color settings is pretty key and something I think too many people skip doing/dont care. The biggest thing that got me to realize how important this stuff is was buying a LG monitor with 99% SRGB and watching Star Wars. I've seen it a billion times but boy on that monitor it felt like the first time with how good it looked on a 99%rgb monitor. Then I watched Avatar......then I bought 2 more of those monitors and have such hate for my 4k TV now.

When I heard you telling us about an upload on socials I wasn't expecting a 40-minute monster! Great job, and welcome back :)

This is what i call timing. Just brought a colorimeter from work and Jerry has released a video on calibrating displays! 💖

Woooooo fell in love with your video style and setup a long long time ago, and was sad to see the slow down of uploads. Happy you're back, keep up the great work. Loved the ending where you were excited. Makes all us viewers just as excited to see you back! Can't wait to see more of your content! Keep on filming please. Anyways take care!

Awesome video and great to have you back after a while. Jerry you are super talented and keep doing what you love.

Good to see you back Jerry!

Welcome back dude. Watching you is like taking me back to the good old days on youtube.

Always nice to get a video from you. Strangely one of my favorites was your Float Tank video. I love that stuff myself. It’s great for your back.

Thanks for the video. I was researching monitor calibration. Your video was very helpful. I ordered an i1Display Pro, that arrived yesterday. I downloaded and installed DisplayCal and calibrated my monitor. Easy. Took just lest than 10 minutes.

Not a bad video, even though both of us don't really know what the hell most of this stuff is, you got enough info in here to help someone get it done. Now then, we need more of these, this kind of stuff is pretty awesome man.

This explains why this video looks mega on point colour wise, upgrading to a calibrated sRGB display was probably the best thing I ever did for my computer.

Thank you! I was just yesterday starting to research for a cost effective alternative to calibrate my Monitor

Glad to see you are back on YT, nice content, its something I've been meaning to do for awhile ;)

Glad to see more of you on KZread, keep'em coming.

Glad to see your videos back! I know it's a lot to ask, but I would love to see the 3D printing videos back, maybe with some DIY 3D printers or something :)

Really good in-depth video, nice to see you back Jerry!

This was really interesting! I didn't even notice that it was 40 minutes long... Keep it up bro, hope you are feeling better!

Never clicked on a video so quickly! Good to have you back sir. Great video!

so happy to see you back

Good to see new content. Commenting to help with SEO type metrics. 😉 Will watch again later to warm up the monitor on my home system then compare the Display Cal software to Datacolor's.

happy to see you back to making content jerry! youre looking healthy man. much love and respect

This was actually really informative and helpful video with good explanation what to do and why. Thanks for sharing! I just ordered the device.

I watched this to the end even though I probably never gonna calibrate my screens wit a tool. (My eyes always were good enough for what I'm using it.) Personality is just key with these "infomercials". Any of the big companies should hire you to talk about their recent innovations in places like CES or Gamescom...etc. This level of fluid, intelligent commentary is just unique.

The best video on this topic that I've seen so far. Thanks for sharing.

AMAZING video and subject, as someone who needs to calibrate his monitor often, and well, is really really nice to see how other people do it... !! (and that's my calibrator, too)

Hey barnacules, thanks for letting me know about the open source software. The one that came by default with my i1 could never properly calibrate my display to look correct on 0-255. This actually didn't oversaturate the blacks to an unusable extent. As a photographer, definitely appreciate the help and also screw you for bringing more use out of my old displays. Its not like I was on edge to buy new monitors no nothing like that. ♥

You're very welcome! I was equally frustrated with the default i1 software and hence the reason I waited so long to calibrate again until I knew the proper way to get it done.

Hi Jerry, great video, only came to watch as i have lost my red color on my screen, got lots of blue yellow & grey & purple...., come to the conclusion my graphics card is playin up, did the double check, used different screen & lead, still the same, also checked my pc color setting, yup, not moved, however on my , running windows 10, on a tv screen, slide correction for red theres no change, unlike for the green & grey they change, really enjoyed the in depth of everything you said & learned a whole new bunch of stuff, great to see you using a split key board, I use them here as i have big hands & my fingers clash if i use a standard board, all the best, Chas, uk.

Good to see you back!

Awesome video, great to see you back man...

I have an old Color Munki Smile and I got a new iMac that was running Catalina. Xrite said they weren't going to upgrade the software for 64 bit. The Display Cal you linked to runs on my new iMac and my old meter will work now. That will get me buy until I can get a better meter. Thanks. XRite was saying I would have to upgrade my devise. It took about 15 minutes

Looking good Jerry! Keep up the amazing work you're doing on the Keto diet. its very inspirational!

great video, bud :) Just wanna leave this here. Your video about this suicide topíc helped me out a lot...

OMG!!!! how did you know i was researching how to do this trying to lift my photography game and you sir have great timing also i would like to point out to others most good camera shops have rentals of these for a decent price if you don't want to shell out for one

@Barnacules

5 жыл бұрын

Never even considered a rental, that makes a lot of sense actually since you really only need to calibrate maybe twice a year unless you're super hardcore.

I didn't colour correct my LG panels, but turned off things like sharpness etc... they look so much better! Thanks for the video.

good to see ya back keep em coming man

thanks Jerry video saved as fav. so I can always come back to it. missed you bud keep up the videos

Wow you almost hit 1M. You will sometime this year. Congrats! I know is coming

Works with my ~decade old huey I got from a thrift store years ago. (original software gave unusable results and was old af) No longer is it junk in a drawer, thanks Barnacules.

I calibrated my monitors now with this program and to be honest I did not expect any big difference from the i1 program, but holly cow was I wong!! The blacks are way more black now and stuff just looks so much better!

@Barnacules

5 жыл бұрын

The i1 program just doesn't seem to do a very good job for some reason. I'm sure there is a way to fix it but my experience always sucked compared to DisplayCal.

Display cal also allows you to import corrections from the xrite software, thus if they release updates to support more displays, you can import those corrections. Though you need to have the xrite software installed when importing, after that the xrite software is no longer needed. For my displays, I increase the patch count to 2000 or higher, it will make the process take like 2 hours, but you will get a more accurate calibration (lower delta from the standard).

@excalibur3311

You don't need the software actually installed, you just need it downloaded so you can import corrections from the software. Same thing goes for the Spyder5 colorimeters. For calibrating displays, there's much more to it than increasing patch count. Observer, whitepoint, color temperature, black level, profiling, color cal, color range, etc.

@Razor2048

5 жыл бұрын

@@excalibur3311 For the white point, I recommend doing a quick verification measurement to get the native white point info to determine how far off you are from D65. Since with backlit displays, the white LED backlight determines the white point, if you correct it via the ICC profile, it makes the entire screen darker by the percentage of deviation you are from the target white point. It is not an issue if you are using a desktop PC and a display that gets brighter than you need, but if brightness is limited or if you are on a laptop, then it is something to avoid if possible, as it will cause you to end up increasing the brightness more than you usually would, thus impacting battery life. Small inaccuracies in color temperature are less of an issue anyway since the human brain does a good job in compensation for minor color temperature differences. Decent quality displays look great even with a low patch count, but for cheap displays, for example, my cheap Asus VS229 display, greatly benefits from a high patch count since cheap displays tend to have strange inconsistencies in their response curves that often get missed at low patch counts, but at higher counts, they get fixed and when you do a large verification test, you don't end up with random peaks in the deltas. I also have a low end netbook (a few of them) since they are extremely cheap, and work decently for basic stuff, e.g., recording audio in quiet environments, and running malware scans on hard drives in a USB 3.0 HDD dock. Anyway to do it just because I can, I did some testing on the display of a Lenovo s21e (horrible display but it is a $120 netbook when it came out originally), and visible improvements can be seen at 500, 1500, 2680, and topping out at around 3500 before no further improvements can be detected.

You're the best, Jerry! Missed you!
