What have ITV done to Potter in Azkaban? Looks cheap.

Suggestion:-

Try the remote control, it has a brightness button.

Unfortunately the brightness control only works on the TV.

You got the wrong gamma value, on the tv? Many films are now done as chirascuro ( with a deliberately dark background) making it easier to slot in any cgi computer ''special effects'' later on ........

No, they have processed it to brighten it. Also a strange high contrast effect in shadow areas.

Azzkaban is a dark film, in both senses, probably ITV didn't think that was commercial.

I've seen this film often enough to know when it's wrong.

Azkaban is the one that the critics liked best but made the least money.
