Desaturation issue #85

Open pqsmmobile opened 10 months ago

When using novideo_srgb+clamp to srgb, and the clamp is active and a movie is played in madvr with bt.709 3dlut - the picture is more desaturated.

That means that MadVR is using color profile. Make sure it's not installed in Windows.

Windows uses the standard sRGB profile

That's the reason. It shouldn't use any color profile, because if the app is color aware, then it uses this profile and then NoVideo_sRGB applies second gamut clamp on top of that, resulting in desaturated colors.

The only two options that work with madvr are - to disable calibration in madvr or choose the display that is already calibrated to bt 709. Using a 3dlut with novideo_srg enabled clamp is impossible.

Then disable calibration.
