If you’re hosting a Super Bowl party this weekend, think beyond the chips and dip.
Make sure you and your guests get the best view possible by adjusting the settings on your TV for super viewing. You have a few options here:
* Try a factory picture preset. Ironically, you don’t want “sports mode.” the best choices are “natural.” “cinema” and “pro.” Experiment with these to see which ones your TV has and which you prefer.
* Make the adjustments yourself. Freeze-frame a nighttime scene on your TV then turn the brightness down as far as you can without losing details. Then find an image with a lot of white and turn the contrast up as far as you can without washing it out.
Don’t forget the sound. The Super Bowl, like nearly all HDTV shows, will be broadcast in 5.1 Dolby Digital. This is the same sound format found on Blu-ray Discs and DVDs - so go ahead and experiment with your sound to get it just right for game day.
