What are the differences between Spyder4Elite and Spyder4TV?
Posted by Raphael Graf on 23 August 2012 12:40 PM
Spyder4TV is for calibrating stand-alone displays, that is, displays that ARE NOT being driven by a computer. In this capacity the product assists the user in adjusting the controls on the display:
Brightness, Contrast, Color, Tint, Color Temperature.

Spyder4Elite is for calibrating displays that ARE being driven by a computer's VGA or DVI output. The product assists the user in adjusting Brightness, Contrast and White Point controls on the display.
Spyder4Elite also calibrates the Gamma and White Point using the video card.

Therefore, if you are using your CRT or LCD/LED/OLED monitor to display images from your computer, Spyder4Elite is the correct product.
If you want to calibrate your TV for use with non-computer video sources, such as a DVD/BlueRay player, then Spyder4TV would be appropriate.
