I am having problems installing argyllCMS executables. It refuses to download automatically and manually. Any help?

How do you adjust the colors to equalize the white point before it calibrates? Is that something I can’t do on a laptop?

I have a 2013 Macbook Pro laptop. It does not have an option to separately adjust the red, green and blue settings in the "Interacrive Display Adjuarment" panel, so it does not appear that DisplayCAL can be used with this. Is there any workaround possible?

Thank you for the video. It was very useful

keeps saying the measurement is in the wrong position but i did exactly what you did and made
sure there were no gaps

@ 4:40 your brightness is up way too high. If you plan on doing any printing it will not match your monitor. Get it down to about 100-120 cd/m2 if you want true color accuracy.

Do you think this software will work with a Colormunki Smile colorometer? I've had a perfectly good one for years that's unsupported so I can't get an update patch for the new Windows 10 update. I really don't want to spend hundreds on a new one when the one I have would still work :(

Choose phosphor wled if your monitor is wide gamut.. otherwise choose White LED is better off for monitor with only sRGB.

Wide gamut monitor is monitor that support DCI-P3, Adobe RGB & sRGB.. many older models doesn’t support wide gamut so make sure to check if your monitor support wide gamut or not 😄

Send your colorchecker to me please lol! These things are so expensive i would rather buy an OLED screen for my laptop..

I suggest to do these youTube videos that you invest in a screen recording software. Hard to watch this with your handheld shaking.
