The reason you're experiencing the problem is probably because your TV doesn't have very good detail in the dark regions in the first place. I personally can see the difference between (0/0/0), (1/1/1) and (2/2/2) on my monitor.
I have resolved the problem.
The "Ambient light level" measurement was still configured on dispcalGui from my previous calibrations.
Since I have updated the software, the "Ambient light level" configuration was hidden in the new version.
I have disabled it through the advanced settings and re-calibrated the TV with XYZ LUT + Matrix with Gamma 2.4.
Using the ti3 Parser the 3dlut was created for madVR calibration settings.
I have tried several profiles with different brightness/contrast/tint settings.
The best results were received with the "Relative" gamma tone curve.
The movies are much more vivid and the colors are deeper now comparing to the Rec709 profile i used before.
Yet using the gamma curve 2.4 in madVR results a bit darker picture than I would like, but the 2.3 seems to be the sweet spot for me resulting stunning and polished rendering.
