Here is what I'm using recently based on google searching

Contrast/Picture should be set to 70 percent or level 7

For those with the back light setting set it to 70 percent or level 7
in sync with the Contrast/Picture

Sharpness should be set to off or 0 for HD source content i.e. video games and blu-ray films
may take awhile for your eyes to adjust to change take a break from the screen

Color/Tint 50 percent or in the middle

Black Adjust/Dynamic Contrast or vivid "fake contrast" settings as such should be set to off

Gamma off or 0 in the middle

Edge Enactment i.e. sharpness buff set to off

Energy Saving Setting or sunglasses effect set to off
to see the proper lighting/colors as intended

HDMI Black Levels set to Normal

Video Game Console Display Settings

Xbox 360 Reference Levels set to Expanded
PlayStation 3 RGB HDMI set to Full

Note: These settings tested and used on a LCD TV while in (Game Mode)

Google your model number. I'm sure there is some A/V nuts on some forum somewhere that posted good calibrations for it. Thats how I set my TV.
