Xbox One Bug? Videos are too bright and washed out.

[bobross]

Xbox app version: 2.5.5.6

I've played the same m2ts file on several Xbox One X media apps and they are all fine except on VLC. On the other apps (I can't use because they are crap and stutter) the brightness levels are fine - and the letterbox bars are completely black. When I load the same video file in VLC, the image is way brighter and the letterbox bar is a medium gray color. Then when I drop back to the VLC menu, the deep black is back.

Is there a way to fix this or is it some sort of playback bug?

Hello,

This seems to be like https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-winrt/issues/210 which should be fixed in the next update.
Please share your file so I can confirm.

Thanks for the update mfkl. Um it's a 43GB m2ts file..... Maybe I'll wait for the update to confirm if fixed?

[mfkl]

Yeah
