Not sure if this post is suppose to be in Windows forum or Mac OS X forum.
When playing a video in virtualized Windows 7 using VLC 2 on MAC OS X Lion running VMware Fusion 4, the video color is yellowish. If I play the same video using Windows Media Player, video color is normal. Why is that?

For others, the fix is:
Tools -> Preferences -> Video
Disable "Use hardware YUV->RGB conversions".
Save and Restart VLC.
