Brightness

The higher the value, the brighter the image. Adjust this control so the black areas 
of the image appear just as black and that detail in the dark areas is visible.

Contrast

The higher the value, the greater the contrast. Use this to set the peak white level 
after you have previously adjusted the Brightness setting to suit your selected input 
and viewing environment.

Color

Lower setting produces less saturated colors. If the setting is too high, colors on 
the image will be overpowering, which makes the image unrealistic.

Tint

The higher the value, the more greenish the picture becomes. The lower the value, 
the more reddish the picture becomes.

Sharpness

The higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes.
