So I got this monitor almost a week ago, with the SVII software. Monitor is on the latest R1.302 firmware, and SVII is the latest 1.1.40 version. I'm using a 15" 2019 MacBook Pro to connect to it via USB-C. I have 2 X-Rite i1Display Pro devices I used to calibrate it to Native Gamut, 100 cd/㎡, D65, and gamma 2.2. I also tried a few other settings, including Andrew Rodney's file from the large thread on Delta-Es. No matter what, the best I can get is an average Delta-E of 1.33 and a max of 2.05. This is in dark, controlled room, no leaking light to the sensor, etc. I read that large thread, and understand I can exchange it and try another. But first I want to know what the following settings do and if they may impact calibration results:
1. Uniformity - this is set to 5 by default. I can turn it to OFF/0, but SVII automatically changes it back to 5.
2. Color Stabilizer - this is ON by default and I tried calibrating with it ON and OFF. No difference.
So seeing they make no difference with calibration results in SVII, keep them at their defaults?
Also, I noticed that after the calibration is done, if I got into the monitor's OSD menu, it has the current input assigned to a "SpectraViewII" preset, and that makes sense, but the numbers of the luminance, white point, and the RGB primaries don't match the calibration results shown in SVII. Why wouldn't they?
Any input or clarification on these would be greatly appreciated.
