Okay, does anyone have a nice group of settings for this TV to make all my films look like the film quality you see in the cinema or on old high quality CRT.. ???

As it stands.. every film or tv program I watch, the TV makes it looks like the film has been shot using a camcorder.. It just gives it no feel and I've been messing around with settings since I got the tv a few weeks ago and I'm still no closer..

Any help appreciated..

update: it would appear backlighting plays a big part.. I've made some adjustments and it looks much better with lower settings - strange how Samsung's QA doesn't even pick these things up before releasing the tv sets into the public domain..

still nice to hear what other owners have their best settings set to.. but this thread can be closed if needs be..
