Hi all!
I recently got myself a new computer setup;
Mac Mini M1
LG 27md5kl-b
I was going to calibrate my LG when I discovered that X-rite basically had no support for the ColorMunki Display that I had used for a decade with no issues.
I bought myself a Spyder X Pro and it arrived yesterday. I didn’t find way of resetting the screen(is it even possible with the LG?) but I’ve turned off “night mode” True Tone etc to not have anything interfering with the colors etc.
Ive ran the calibration procedure about 15 times now and it always come out either too blue or too warm. And I can’t figure out where it goes wrong. I do realize it’s easy to adjust yourself blind and that looking at the wrong colors will make the right colors look wrong. However I’ve never seen this changing so much with old ColorMunki, it always looked right when calibrated and my prints were pretty much the exact same as the screen.
now I can’t understand what I’m doing wrong as there isn’t much too it.
does the Spyder consider the temperature of the ambient or does it JUST measure the light level?
ive done a calibration every 4 weeks the last decade and never had any problems, now it’s all over the place.
Any help is much appreciated.
I make sure it’s flush to the screen. I manually adjust brightness. I have no lights shining on the screen. I’ve turned off all auto functions. I’ve started all the way from scratch with fresh install of software etc. it’s plugged directly in the Mac, no hub. I’ve quitted all other applications etc..
Thanks!
