The VideoLAN Forums

Sorry for digging up this old thread.

This solution works fine, but I realized that when you select <always on top>, the color limitation is applied again, this may be some nvidia driver limitation or a bug.
When you restart VLC, the picture is fine again.

Also, I realized that other players like WMP do not have this problem so its either something with VLC or maybe gpu drivers.

I randomly made a screenshot and realized it has better contrast than normal video output. Now, I can use contrast effect to make it look more like the screenshot but I don't get it. Why is there a difference?
