Wrong color in videos
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Using totem from cvs (2004-02-07) i get wrong colors when playing videos. all video formats are affected and also the music visualization plugins. the display is nearly grayscale, not totally but all colors are turning to some gray or brown. i compiled totem against xine-lib 1-rc3a. latest nvidia driver...
Hi, I'm seeing this too, also with an nvidia card (I'm using the xfree86 driver, though). I don't know what causes it, but going into preferences/display and moving the color slider to either end of the bar makes the colors go back to normal. In the middle position it looks like the red color vanishes (i.e. instead of RGB I have a GB display, which looks kind of cold). It's related to 133011, in that after running totem with the bogus color preferences neither xine nor mplayer will display colors properly. This is on Debian Sid using the latest (0.99.9-2) package. The problem appeared in the upgrade to 0.99.9. 0.99.8 was fine. Thanks,
