> Can we just agree that unless the TV is set to "theatre" mode, everything needs to be visible in normal daylight?
That would require:
1. agreeing on what a "normal" amount of daylight is
2. agreeing on the distribution of that daylight (one source vs. many)
3. agreeing on a permissible range of angles the TV must be relative to the light source(s)
4. standardizing which type of ambient light rejection film each TV must use
5. standardizing an average and peak brightness expected from all TV sets
6. standardizing a minimum real (not "dynamic") contrast ratio expected from all TV sets
7. requiring that each TV set sold is calibrated to Rec.709 for SDR and Rec.2020 for HDR
This list is laughable when you examine just how bad a typical "Best Buy™ Black Friday Special!" TV is, even after it has been put through the ringer by a professional ISF calibrator.
And yet this list is approached in the Computer Monitor scene, where boasting about proper color calibration is a selling point, even in a gaming monitor.
