Hi all,  8)
Ive been having lots of troule recently with movie files (various) when watching them on my PC. Roll Eyes

They appear very bright in contrast to normal videos so much that its sometimes difficult to view...
Some files are fine but it has been about 90% recently which go this strange white brightness.

I have tried multiple players and have the newest version of the players...so what am I missing. Unless its a windows thing but im update don that too.

oh Dear  ???

Anthony

Do you have an NVidia card with the latest drivers?  If so, that's the problem.  For some reason I would get very strange playback with streaming video and certain filetypes.

Go to your NVidia control panel, and under Color Correction, make sure "Apply color changes to:" is set to "All".

If this isn't your problem, then, umm...  Whoops?

Lucky b@$t@rd... Angry

But yeah, I had the same problem with my FX5500 and the new drivers.  The hardware video overlay was WAY off, but I managed to get it back to normal!
