Question

Vizio M601D w/ NEW 1.60.10 Firmware Picture Calibration

Jun 15, 2015 9:54AM PDT

There was a new firmware pushed to this set recently. It included settings for gamma and input lag, which was previously not present.
I'm looking for settings belonging to this specific set, not the M line in general, that includes updated settings for gamma.

Color Tuner:
11 Point White Balance:
Gamma:
Backlight:
Brightness:
Contrast:
Color:
Tiny:
Sharpness:

I would really appreciate this.
The generalized settings for the M line destroyed black levels, I'm convinced from seeing other M sets that what's posted isn't a cure-all.

Wrong firmware
Jun 15, 2015 10:21AM PDT

My forum post is in regards to the NEW version 1.60 firmware.
This is not the same as the previous iteration that bugged local dimming.
I, too, had a set with the original bugged firmware and was forced to have Vizio replace it.
Read again, this is a NEW version, just released, no bugs.

Thanks.

I didn't link in newer posts in it.

AVS Forums has many discussions about it. If you can't find it, start one there as it seems to have more folk focused on this.

NEW 1.60 firmware?
Jun 15, 2015 10:42AM PDT

I'm terribly confused about what you are suggesting.
Are you saying there are posts in the AVSforums about this particular set, with this particular firmware, that have the settings I'm asking for?
Are you quite certain you understand what I'm asking? This has nothing to do with the original bugged 1.60 firmware, which crippled Auto Brightness Control.

Is this not the place to request calibration settings?
The only other post about this set has incorrect and incompete settings, designed for firmware 1.34.

I did.

But didn't link them here but the main thread. If you can't find it, just create a new thread there as that's where you'll get the best exposure.

This is what I mean.

You did, you did what?
I'm sorry if English isn't your first language, I feel like I'm receiving incomplete thought processes from you.
Is there some way you could explain in detail what you are trying to express?
Perhaps provide this link you are suggesting?
Do you understand what I'm asking?

I did link to an AVS Forum
Jun 15, 2015 11:19AM PDT

I did not link to any exact thread with this exact version. If you can't find it, start a new thread.

Sorry if I was unclear. Here you'll get a few looking at it. In AVS Forum you'll get a lot more eyeballs.

I don't expect you to get your answers here. Too few follow this here. Go to where the crowds are on this one.

Perfect.
