This involves running the screen at high brightness, checking for color consistency, dead pixels, line artifacts, and flickering. signal testing including sender box, processor, media server input, and video playback—so that all inputs are synchronized and calibrated.

This testing phase is where many problems can be identified and fixed before they ever happen on-site. For us, it's about delivering a screen that's not just “bright and big,” but also stable, color-accurate, and show-ready.
