Richard Dawkin's Biomorph program allowed you evolve small plant-like creature thingies by selecting from a grid of candidates that varied by a single 'gene' of information.
The candidate that got selected formed the basis of the next round; letting you evolve your creature without necessarily knowing
the underlying genetic parameters you were altering.
Ok - so on your TV, you have brightness, contrast, sharpness etc.
Instead of adjusting each of these parameters individually , why not have (say) four screen-in-screen pictures that vary slightly in their 'genetic' makeup (eg contrast +1, brightness -1) and let the user drill-down until they find their perfect picture.

Just realised the title may give the false impression that this is an idea for enhanced porn-surfing. |

What about variations in colour-vision ? |

Or if you are trying to pick out a feature in the background of a film.... |

What if there are 4 perfect pictures, sort of like Lagrange points? One might cycle between them endlessly, as weeks and months pass... |

Spending weeks and months on the sofa cycling between pictures on the tv....that's what tv's are for isn't it ? ;-) |
