Also when editing I lift the blacks so I can simply see more, lip sync in a dark shadow... Background people... I want to know what's in the shot even if I'm going to crush and hide it later.

Today I turned all the monitors in the room in which I am working way down, and recalibrated (not perfect, but passable).The problem: The loss of contrast made for a more accurate image in the video window, but it also made the Avid interface much more difficult to read. This setting is clearly better for grading. That was instantly apparent, and thanks for the advice that. However, editing with these setting would be a horrible strain.I'm pretty sure there is a better compromise than my quick reset, but I don't think this will make the basic paradox go away. At least in Media Composer, the monitor setting that makes the video portion of the image the most accurate, is not at all ideal for the software interface.
