[mythtv-users] How to set hue contrast brightness saturation pvr-250

[Richard S]

The following was in an e-mail from ( levittben at yahoo.com) and is on this 
mail site just not placed with this thread. This works great just as he 
stated. Thanks

While watching Live TV, use the 'g' key to cycle
through brightness, contrast, "colour", and hue. Then
use the left and right arrows to adjust them.

Note that these settings are stored on a per-channel
basis, so you'll either have to set them up for each
channel you watch, or set it up for one channel, and
manually run a mysql command to set all channels to
use the picture settings for the channel you updated.
