Funny rainbow colors in video

[J87]

So i recorded some video with dxtory and after attempting to play it in VLC i get really weird discoloration and what appears to be screen tearing inside the video.

But when i play it in windows media player its fine. It normally works in the opposite for me, VLC has always been great for any video.

Any ideas?

After rendering the video can play perfectly fine in VLC, i wonder whats causing the issue with the raw recorded video?

This is really weird and could be caused by many different things, to be honest.

Please upload a short sample of a file to either http://streams.videolan.org/upload/ or to EmbedUpload.com, so it will upload the file for you to several other hosts, and then post the link to the file here.

Here you go, its only 2 seconds long so the file size isn't massive.

Yeah raw video is fun. The codec is actually more compressed than most raw recording options.

This video is using Lagarith Lossless with YUV 4:2:2 color space. Some other Lagarith videos I have which are using RGB are playing fine so I guess it has something to do with the color space used.

You should create a new ticket on the VLC Trac with the links to this thread and to your sample file.
