Hi, I was wondering if anyone here can help me.

I just recently installed Ubuntu 8.04 64-bit and videos were playing fine but I booted it up this morning and when trying to play a video or DVD the colours are wrong. For example what should be blue is red and vice versa. It was working last night when watching a DVD in Ogle as VLC and the rest wouldn't play DVDs for some reason last night but even that has the problem now.

I uploaded a screenshot of what I mean: http://www.lux01.co.uk/files/Screenshot.png. As you can probably tell, people aren't blue and he isn't supposed to be (I've watched the DVD before).

Thanks in advance,

William

I had exactley the same problem. And found it was because i was playing from an external drive.

Once i played the files from my Ubuntu partiotion it worked perfectley
