applying a sequence of video processing and display settings profiles to base settings based on video processing and display settings profile priorities to derive video processing setting values and display setting values; processing the video via the computer in accordance with the video processing and display settings values; and providing the processed video to the display device. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 wherein the sequence of settings profiles comprises a hierarchy of multiple settings profiles. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 wherein each video processing and display settings profile applied only modifies settings having values. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 wherein the applied sequence of video processing setting values and display setting values include video processing and display settings profiles indicated as active. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4 wherein video processing and display settings profiles are organized into groups, wherein only one video processing and display settings profile is active in any one group. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4 and further comprising: modifying active video processing and display settings profiles in accordance with user input; and removing modifications from the active video processing and display settings profiles unless otherwise saved. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 and further comprising selecting a video processing and display settings profile for application of the sequence of video processing and display settings profiles in response to receiving a video source indication. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 and further comprising selecting a video processing and display settings profile for application of the sequence of video processing and display settings profiles in response to receiving a video type indication. ### Claim 9 A machine-readable storage device having instructions for execution by a processor of a machine to cause the processor to perform operations to perform a method comprising: receiving video content to display on a display device; applying a sequence of video processing and display settings profiles to base settings based on video processing and display settings profile priorities to derive video processing setting values and display setting values; processing the video via the computer in accordance with the video processing and display settings values; and providing the processed video to the display device. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The device of claim 9 wherein the sequence of settings profiles comprises a hierarchy of multiple settings profiles. ### Claim 11 (depends on 9) The device of claim 9 wherein each video processing and display settings profile applied only modifies settings having values. ### Claim 12 (depends on 9) The device of claim 9 wherein the applied sequence of video processing setting values and display setting values include video processing and display settings profiles indicated as active. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The device of claim 12 wherein video processing and display settings profiles are organized into groups, wherein only one video processing and display settings profile is active in any one group. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The device of claim 12 and further comprising: modifying active video processing and display settings profiles in accordance with user input; and removing modifications from the active video processing and display settings profiles unless otherwise saved. ### Claim 15 (depends on 9) The device of claim 9 and further comprising selecting a video processing and display settings profile for application of the sequence of video processing and display settings profiles in response to receiving a video source indication. ### Claim 16 (depends on 9) The device of claim 9 and further comprising selecting a video processing and display settings profile for application of the sequence of video processing and display settings profiles in response to receiving a video type indication. ### Claim 17 A device comprising: a processor; and a memory device coupled to the processor and having a program stored thereon for execution by the processor to perform operations to perform a method comprising: receiving video content to display on a display device; applying a sequence of video processing and display settings profiles to base settings based on video processing and display settings profile priorities to derive video processing setting values and display setting values; processing the video via the computer in accordance with the video processing and display settings values; and providing the processed video to the display device. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The device of claim 17 wherein the applied sequence of video processing setting values and display setting values include video processing and display settings profiles indicated as active. ### Claim 19 (depends on 18) The device of claim 18 and further comprising: modifying active video processing and display settings profiles in accordance with user input; and removing modifications from the active video processing and display settings profiles unless otherwise saved.
