The further you are from your calibration target the higher is the loss of contrast.Ī macbook should not be too far away from D65 to loose that amount, should be above 1000:1. If you correct white using GPU like in laptops or in locked screens like imacs (which are laptop like due their limitations) you are limiting 1 or 2 channels max output. Since MacOS color management engine for desktop is buggy nd has a lot of issues you’ll have to stay with macbook native white (unless you are ok with the drawbacks), so use it as reference, then use LG OSD if available to match white with RGB gains: try to match numerically, then if you are not happy apply visual match from that starting point. Matching screens is explained in some faq or in displaycal doc. That’s why we love i1d3s and CCSS/EDR suport. Matrix CCMX corrections are valid for the display and colorimeter used to create them. Its data is used to compute on the fly a matrix correction for YOUR colorimeter based on your colorimeter firmware data. Spectral is “portable” between your i1d3 colorimeter and mine (to some extent) and between screens with close backlights. It’s very difficult that you’ll fin one better than the bundled ones. Nothing new there.įor user contributions in a WLED PFS phosphor you’ll new high spectral resolution in order to “see” the narrow spikes in red wavelengths (3nm or better). This topic was modified 2 years, 1 month ago by Xanarkan.Ĭorrection = macbook P3 retina CCSS “ss” bundled with Displa圜AL for i1d3 colorimeters, for both screens: WLED PFS phosphor P3 screen. I used the latest Displa圜AL 3.8.9.3 and macOS Catalina 10.15.2 (19C57) Thanks in advance for your enlightenments. I disabled auto-brightness and True Tone options in macOS settings. On my LG it’s 950:1 which is more or less the expected value.

How to choose which screen is the reference for the other ?.What’s the difference between “matrix” correction and “spectral” correction ?.How am I supposed to know if a user contributed correction is good for my screen ?.

Do the MacBook Pro Retina 2016 correction is the good one for my MacBook Pro 15 model 2018 screen ?.Do I have to use a correction for the LG UltraFine 5K 27MD5KA ? If yes, do you have any idea which correction ? It’s covering DCI-P3, it seems to be W-LED and AH-IPS.Maybe 100 or 150K off between the 2 screens. So either the MacBook Pro screen is a little bit too yellow or the LG is a little bit to blue. I used “ Spectral: LCD PFS Phosphor WLED IPS, 94% P3 (Panassonic VVX17P051J00 in Lenovo P70) as it was the closest I thought … but I don’t know the difference between PFS Phosphor WLED family and White LED Family (AC, LG, Samsung).ĭespite that, and after a new calibration process, the same. I also found contributors who uploaded profile for Colormunki Display + LG UltraFine 5K but without knowing if it would be relevant, I didn’t used it. The 2018 model seems to have the same screen that the 2016 model. I also found a correction profile for the MacBook screen named “ Spectral: LCD PFS Phosphor WLED IPS, 99% P3 (MacBook Pro Retina 2016)” that sounds like a profile for my MacBook Pro screen. I found that my LG is W-LED backlit AH-IPS panel and DCI-P3 gamut. I looked into the forum to find if I needed maybe some corrections. So, first I performed a first calibration of the 2 screens, but the MacBook Pro screen was just a bit more yellow than the LG.

First I wanna thank the devs for this software that’s waaaay more convenient that i1 Studio shipped with my Colormunki Display which gives me a good profile but with crushed black depending what app I use, very annoying when watching a movie.Īnyway here is my problem: I have a MacBook Pro 15 model 2018 and a LG UltraFine 5K 27MD5KA that I want to calibrate and characterize to have consistent color across the screens.
