The effect of Offset is roughly the same as “Brightness”. It adjusts the overall video level of the image. The most obvious effect is that when it is increased, you’ll see the black level of the image become brighter

The effect of Gain is roughly the same as “Contrast”. It adjusts the total video output level of Crystalio II. The most obvious effect is that when it is increased, you’ll see the white level of the image become brighter, thus giving you a similar effect to more contrast

R, G, B is individual Red, Green, and Blue channels of the image. Adjusting individual channels gives you control of that individual color

Both Offset and Gain can be used to adjust the picture’s color balance. Gain can be used to lower the overall dominance of one color. Offset can be used for fine adjustments and adjustments that affect the lower end of the grayscale more. Use commercially available calibration DVDs that contain grayscale ramps and other similar patterns to verify color balance adjustment results
