For any TV in a specific ambient light setting, there is only ONE correct setting for brightness. Once it is correctly set, turning it down will reduce detail in dark scenes by causing the darkest shades to merge together; and turning it up will "lighten" the dark scenes making them appear washed out.
The only proper way to correctly adjust brightness is with a proper calibration disk under normal ambient viewing conditions.

Very few people know how to use test paterns, or even that they exist. Where do I get test paterns from my cable box? They are not there.
Many may have thier sets too bright. The bottom line is, does the picture look good? The advice I give helped me.

In the case of LCD and/or Plasma sets, they are all* progressive scan.

On this web site people are frequently arguing about progressive scan verses interlaced. You are trying to tell me that it makes no difference? My cable box outputs 720p, 1080i, 480i, 480p, and a couple others. For SD there is extra detail in the progressive. For HD there is better fast motion. I understand that my LCD TV is native progessive. I know that I see a difference based on what I input. It is not all the same.
