11.10 - Color Hue off in video

**kooldino** · January 20th, 2012

In both vlc and dragon player, the hue is off. It appears to be the complete opposite of what it should be. Fleshtones are green, etc. I can adjust the hue in the program, but I have to set it manually for each video I watch.

The crazy part is that flash videos on youtube and such look perfectly normal.

I have an nvidia graphics card.

Anyone else have this issue?

Maybe filing a bug report will help you getting some help?

I'm not sure it's a bug at this point, it may just be some kind of driver issue.

Same problem. Hoping for a hint as to why.
Had to re-install as the disk died. Now dragon and mythtv display video with the hue set wrong.

mplayer works fine.

This may offer a solution. Trying it now.

Yep. That did it. Joy!
Need up to date Nvidia drivers. Looks like install gave me v173 which is way old.
