Have you made a control file from them?

I smell something...

Yea.. the control files are easy to make. But I found since there are only about 7 adjustments, it is almost as easy to just give those settings:
  1. Base
  2. Sharpness
  3. Contrast - *
  4. Brightness -*
  5. Saturation
  6. Hue
  7. Active-D
*- only adjustable with Active-D turned off

So...

  • Vivid base
  • Sharp@6,
  • -1 Contrast,
  • -1 Brightness,
  • -2 Sat,
  • 0 Hue,
  • Active-D@ off

is easy to decode
