It might be the factory settings as wrong. I had a look through that last link you sent and it completely gone over my head. To me it should liek a calibration tool for HD/Blu-ray DVD players.

Thanks KnightRider. I've made sharpness 0, noise reduction and mpeg filter and only have 1080i set on the tivo box.

My picture setting:
Picture mode : natural
Backlight: 12 (max 20)
contrast: 74
Brightness: 50
Sharpness: 0
Colour: 52
tint: G50/R50

Advanced Settings is greyed out and that has black tone and flesh tone etc.
Picture looks quiet a lot better.
AV forum has some pretty good trouble shooting for this TV's settings. I now have a really good picture on my 55 inch LED tv... TiVo and Netflix work really well on pass-through.
