Faded colors at playback

Postby AnotherLife » 09 Dec 2011 00:00

I've always noticed that video playback on vlc looks worse than on media player classic due to faded out colors.
I've saved a videoframe but the fading is not evident in it, only in the player itself.
(I'm using 1.1.11)

Yes, are the NV drivers messing around ? (because VLC is using hardware acceleration ?)

Please tell me which is the relevant setting I can change. :geek:

EDIT: I googled a bit : Color adjustment on my Nvidia control panel is set to "video player settings"
