The LG 37LG30 gives you a lot of options to tweak your display settings on top of the standard AV modes i.e. Cinema, Game and Sports. You can calibrate your display and save in Expert1 and Expert2 settings.
This is how you can do it: Go to Menu –> Picture –> Picture Mode –> Expert1 and then you can calibrate your display.
Below are the settings that I use, along with the cinema mode. You can find a lot of others on the net.
