The issue

I scraped videos using skyscraper, everything is fine when I play them through vlc but pegasus plays them with wrong colors, like negative.

System info

OS : Ubuntu 22.04.02 CPU: Intel N6005 GPU: Nvidia GTX 1050 RAM: 32gb

Pegasus version

Pegasus alpha16-47-gb0366487 (2023-02-28)

Pegasus log

lastrun.log

Maybe the last line is a hint : 2023-04-06T22:06:13 [w] libpng warning: iCCP: profile 'Samsung - Natural Color Pro 1.0 ICM': 0h: PCS illuminant is not D50

Hi, video rendering depends on the system's video codecs. On Ubuntu, Pegasus uses the GStreamer video codecs (gstreamer1.0-plugins-* and gstreamer1.0-libav), while VLC uses its own set, as far as I know. If they don't work correctly, you can try installing more GStreamer packages (libav as mentioned earlier, or gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad and gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly).

Hey, I tried that and they are already installed. Weirdly enough, it doesn't happen on my other machine on Ubuntu 22.10.

There have been a Qt update recently, could you try the latest Pegasus?

mmatyas commented 2 months ago

I'll close this for now, as the issue is related to third-party video codecs.
