We wanted to see whether adapting BBC content could make use of these features and reduce energy consumption.

The web page is big, and full of detail, but the redesign pays off even for the old TVs. I would set up TVs and monitors with test images. Remember, your room lighting will affect the optimum.

This web page is what I used for the set up. NO TV will arrive with settings that suit your room. They never have.
