Terry,
This is interesting - but not sure how well I understand what you are saying here. When I set-up CED to profile the monitor I set three parameters in the CED interface (and the DDC business does the rest), one of which is Luminance in candelas. I usually select 110 cd. Are you saying that dulling-down the display this way is inferior to using the brightness setting on the display panel itself for doing the same thing? On my display, the brightness numbers are not in candelas, the scale is in percentage, and if I set that, I still need to tell CED what parameter to use for luminance, which presumably over-rides anything I set on the display itself because the DDC system is functioning. So what piece am I missing in this story?

................I recently scrapped my entire MacBook Pro system
and had to re-install all my apps, including ColorEyes Display. I took
the opportunity to use it on my piece-of-crap 24" Gateway FPD2485W
display on one of my other Macs and tested using the software to dial
down the luminance vs. doing it using the display controls. I started
at maximum/native luminance (360 cd/m2! you could use this display as
a tanning bed!) and then dropped it in about 20% increments down to
120 cd/m using software/video LUT adjustment only. I then went back
and repeated the test using hardware luminance adjustment and left the
software at "maximum" luminance. ColorEyes' "Validition" history
clearly showed me that hardware luminance adjustment to be superior to
having the software adjust the video LUTs to bring down the
brightness. ..............................

Terry
