Calibrating the Macintosh screens

[samsc]

I added a new ui HUD in f24.

It shows the current gamma transfer function across both displays.

This allowed us to check that all the displays in istanbul where using the same output gamma, which was important for the screen processors doing the overlap.

How do i use this?

This is set by the os and colorsync.

The 'Displays' preferences allow you to set a calibration for each screen.
this is what the calibration effects.

There is a rather good piece of software called 'Profile Maker Editor' from GregTabMacbeth that allows you to make a curve in any shape you want.

You cold use this to create a screen profile that was optimal for a DL1 in certain conditions.
