My video player is white washing the videos. - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Well perhaps it's not white washing them but its damn close. Basically its makeing things incredably bright and really, frankly, unpleasent to watch because everything is tons brighter. So what do i do, the only thing that i changed was my video card driver got upgraded and then i roled it back and still had the same problem. Any ideas?

Do you have an nVidia card?

roadkill · 07-25-2005, 08:28 PM

yea, is that a problem

pixelbend · 07-26-2005, 04:49 AM

What codec is the video? What player are you using?

cyrnel · 07-26-2005, 05:39 AM

That happened with a recent version of the drivers. The default overlay color correction curve is forkled.

Open the nvidia display properties, go to the color correction tab, and apply color changes to All.

I just installed the 77.77 drivers on my 'rents comp. The color seemed a bit funky, so I'll do that! Thanks

Im racking my brains trying to figure out how this sorts the video problem

That isn't a random post. It's what you get when you display the NVidia driver chromaticity & luminance tables in ASCII.

o.. i was like wow wut a random post

Gatorade Frost · 08-17-2005, 07:46 PM

I just downloaded the most up to date version of the nVidia drivers for my 6800GT and for some reason (I dunno if sound is directly tied in with the video?) but now it's giving me huge trouble to play the video (though I finally have good coloration) and now the sound skips about every 3 seconds.

cyrnel · 08-17-2005, 10:44 PM

Questions and things to think about... Does the sound skip forward to catch up, cut out without apparent effect on sync, or stop to let the video catch up?

What player application? What video type? (file/streaming/?) Do you know the specific codecs involved?

Were the exact same files playing before the driver upgrade? Did you change anything else besides the driver? Did you try going back to the old driver? Official Forceware or external release?

Yes, audio and video are tied together in that there's a timebase and a heartbeat that synchronizes them during playback. Format varies by file type.

You little beauty! I have just had this problem, got me buggered, as everything works with another video card.
I came across this post by chance, not by searching too.
Thanks heaps dude

for me when using an ATI (I know that's not the case here, but it helped me) I had to manually adjust the video overlay, in catalyst, on both monitors to get it where I liked it.
