I did some more tests: hardware calibration only simply gives me better results. So I performed a new calibration with Spectraview II and I profiled the monitor with Argyll 1.0.4 and 3000 patches with 0.5 Degree of Adaptation. I created both LUT and shaper+matrix profiles. The LUT one, High Quality: http://darkbasic.homelinux.com/varie/argyll/argyll3090_lut.icm targen -v -w -d3 -e 1 -g 32 -f 320 -r check_argyll3090 dispread -v -yl check_argyll3090 profcheck -v -k -w check_argyll3090.ti3 argyll3090_lut.icm >> profcheck_argyll3090_lut.log Profile check complete, errors(CIEDE2000): max. = 3.713340, avg. = 0.392661, RMS = 0.592328 The shaper+matrix one, High Quality: http://darkbasic.homelinux.com/varie/argyll/argyll3090_matrix.icm profcheck -v -k -w check_argyll3090.ti3 argyll3090_matrix.icm >> profcheck_argyll3090_matrix.log Profile check complete, errors(CIEDE2000): max. = 1.915625, avg. = 0.311032, RMS = 0.373586 But there is a little big (huge) problem: where are the dark colors in the shaper+matrix profile? O_O Let's see an explanatory screenshot: http://darkbasic.homelinux.com/varie/argyll/no_dark_colors.jpg The LUT profile created with Argyll and the matrix profile created with Spectraview II don't have this problem. This is a _HUGE_ problem because Firefox color management system (both LCMS and QCMS) and photoshop's gamut warning don't work with the LUT profile!!! This is why I need a matrix profile... Cheers,
