For reasons that I haven't looked into, I found a dramatic difference
between the fit of a shaper/matrix model to a calibrated vs. uncalibrated
display. After I'd calibrated my display (which takes out any zero
offset in each channel, makes each channel have a fixed response
curve, and makes the three channels mix together properly to
form white), the fit was very good. On an uncalibrated display,
the fit was rather poor.
Graeme, how good is good, and how poor is poor?

For a rather inexpensive consumer CRT monitor, which is not calibrated (except that I did set brightness/contrast visually), I obtained the following fitting error for 1000 measured samples:

profile -qh -as:

$ profcheck moni.ti3 moni.icc
Profile check complete, errors: peak = 5.911741, avg = 1.388206
$ profcheck -c moni.ti3 moni.icc
Profile check complete, errors (CIE94): peak = 4.711208, avg = 0.946515

profile -qh -ag:

$ profcheck moni.ti3 moni.icc
Profile check complete, errors: peak = 7.179901, avg = 1.543169
$ profcheck -c moni.ti3 moni.icc
Profile check complete, errors (CIE94): peak = 5.087783, avg = 1.019353

Sure, not perfect, but I also wouldn't call these numbers really poor, granted that it is not an expensive $xxxx professional monitor.

Regards,
Gerhard
