I am new to this calibrating. I have the NEC pa241w with spectraview + colormunki. Should I set the monitor to adobe RGB or SRGB. I notice when I set the spectraview to Photo editing it select S RGB. I need to make the monitor profile to match my prints.
If I understand right SRGB is for the web and adobe RGB is for printer etc.
It\'s very weird that it defaults to sRGB for Photo Editing mode for you.
Anyway, for photo stuff you should use the Photo Editing and select Native Gamut.
For use with non-managed programs, like IE or other general stuff (perhaps for games too) other than video stuff then pick the sRGB emulation mode and leave it on the sRGB tone response curve.
For use with non-managed video stuff like blu-ray, DVD, TV or perhaps games, then use the Broadcast mode and pick sRGB gamut and combine that with gamma 2.2.
If you want the Colormunki to reset the placement of the primaries for sRGB then, since for some weird reason SV II refuses to automate this!!!!, you need to open the probe sampler window in SV II and then also open Multiprofiler and start making a custom mode and measure white point and adjust sliders until it hits D65 and then go back and adjust the R,G,B xy values until they hit the sRGB primary locations and write those numbers down and then in SV II you need to chose custom gamut and then enter those xy values and then you need to make sure the preferences are set for chromaticities to use the probe measure values.
