HUGE VIDEO PROBLEM!  The colors are all wrong!  Quicktime Gamma Bug!

I'm on a Mac, and there is a huge problem with video.  When you view or playback videos, the color is all wrong!  It's desaturated and faded.  If you import your videos into premiere or playback through vlc, then everything looks correct. If you play them back or edit them in lightroom, the colors are all wrong. 
Nice try Adobe, but you failed.         

Ok, but we'll need more details.
Your OS version, how you calibrate your monitor, whether you see the same playing through Quicktime standalone on your Mac, what camera the videos came from, whether they've been edited in other software, etc. 
This is a beta so there will be bugs - that information could help narrow down and fix issues such as these.

  • Color space-creating a book in My publisher-.when I look at the share book pre print the colors are all dulled out. I work in pro photo rgb in LR and PS -.My Pub is sRGB-.where is the problem?

    Color space…creating a book in My publisher….when I look at the share book pre print the colors are all dulled out. I work in pro photo rgb in LR and PS ….My Pub is sRGB….where is the problem?

    I finally got to my references. This had to do with "soft proofing" on screen in Photoshop.
    So this may not help you at all. Re: Strange sRGB soft-proofing behavior  So go ahead and leave that setting at Basic.
    However there is a Color Management forum that you also go to and see if anyone has answers for your particular problem.
    Here is the link: Color management
    I hope they can help you out.

  • Whenever I visit sites that require Adobe Flash Player such as youtube, the colors are all off.

    On sites like NicoNicoDouga and Youtube, the colors for things are completely off.

  • Video images are garbled and colors are all run together

    Just got a new computer and downloaded newest version of quicktime. I can't watch any videos/webcasts etc. The sound is fine and the video plays but the screen is "garbled" and the colors are all off/run together?
    I can play a dvd fine
    Dont know much about computers and Dell would not help me....any ideas?

    I am having a similar problem and tried the same fix and it did not work for me either. In my case the video plays for a few seconds then get choppy but the audio is fine. Someone on this site suggested that my machine does not have enough to play the H.264 codec. I do have an older machine a compaq 1.20 GHz , 512 MB Ram running XP home sp2. It should be able to run a video. After all I am not on a 486 machine. I finally had to back out of the QT 7.1.6 and currently running QT 6.5.2. It works fine for me at least at this point. But of course now that means I cannot look at videos using the latest format.

  • I am trying to sync my itunes with my ipod, but when I get to step 3 of syncing, it stops. Also, I deleted all the songs on my ipod, and when I go to my music in my ipod the songs are all still there and in a grey color and I'm not able to select them.

    I am trying to sync my itunes with my ipod, but when I get to step 3 of syncing, it stops. Also, I deleted all the songs on my ipod, and when I go to my music in my ipod the songs are all still there and in a grey color and I'm not able to select them. How do I completely clear my ipod music, and how can I solve the syncing problem?

    Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
    All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
    If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

    Perhaps you should ask over in the iPad community, you may get better answers there.
    It's actually my fault that psoon ended up here ... s/he intially posted over at Home Sharing, and I tried a relocate request to Apple TV rather than iPad.

  • Some movie rentals i can transfer from ipad but most not! Whats the problem? They are all SD.

    Some movie rentals i can transfer from ipad but most not! Whats the problem? They are all SD. Some are watched others not. It just seems to be a fluke sometimes that they show up in the rented movies when i sync. And bought movies I always have to manually transfer to my computer!

    How did you rent them ? From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657 :
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • Colors on external monitor are all wrong

    I have a hp 2710m that i bought to connect to my Macbook Aluminum 13". I have tried Apple color calibration and the colors are still not right. The reds are really really fake and bright especially and the image looks kinda flat. I am using HDMI to connect it.
    Any recommendations for other ways to calibrate it? HP's sight isn't very helpful toward macs.
    Thanks.

  • When printing photos at my hp 1514n the colors are odd + not suitable. using win7 64bit +lat. driver

    Hi, I' using a hp 1514n for printing photos. It's attached to my Win7 64bit computer. But the colors are not suitable. Printing is in high quality but the coloras are wrong (i.e. instead of a bule sky I get it  turquois).
    all patches installaed and also the lastest drivers. What else can I do?
    The files are ok, because I get the right colors when printign the files at another hp color laser jet with win7 (32 bit)
    Where can I get a suitable icc file?

    I'd use the GutenPrint drivers. They're usually better than the drivers that HP ships, anyway, and the latest version of GutenPrint will work with Leopard while the HP drivers for a printer that old will not. The drivers at <http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs> also explicitly support the DJ960C. Those drivers are usually written by HP employees, are often superior to the drivers HP uses, and, like the GutenPrint drivers, are free.

  • Help please! imac is completely full, FPC wont let me render! I'm a video editor and have over 70 gb worth of videos on the imac which all need to be kept but now beloved imac is full, only had it for 5 months! need external hard drive every 5 months??

    FPC wont let me render! I'm a video editor and have over 70 gb worth of videos on the imac which all need to be kept for various clients/backup/original versons but now beloved imac is full, only had it for 5 months! Will Ineed external hard drive every 5 months?? This can't be I've already resorted to getting rid of unsed applications such as garage band, iTunes,address book ect. I've trashed everything I could. what next ???
    My video files are massive, converting them to a different format doesn't reduce the size of them it just turns them into mp4 or apple pro res ect
    This iMac is for work only so there's no pictures, no music, no conacts, no messenger, no games, nonothing but videos!!

    Have a look at this: http://grandperspectiv.sourceforge.net/
    It will show you exactly what is taking up all of your space.
    You also may want to consider some kind of external storage just for your video projects.

  • When i print out a color photo the colors are not accurate

    I have a new envy110 series CQ811A. I have a windows 7 64-bit laptop. There are no error messages and the Envy works great but when i print a picture off of a web site the colors are not accurate and i mean none of them. i have returned one printer already but this one is doing the same thing. i really like this printer but if it won't print the colors correctly  i don't know what i will do. I also have a HP C4280 All In One Photo Smart and whatever is printed off the colors are great it just is not wireless. I have tried everything and nothing helps. Is there a solution

    Hi easyneez5!
       Sorry to hear it's not printing web pages so well.
     I do have a suggestion, that may or may not align with the way your are used to printing web pages; HP has a new and improved application for printing web page content; HP Smart Print.
       It's supported on IE (most versions) and can do some neat tricks: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/partner/microsoft/bing-bar-for-hp/smart-print.html
      There are also other potential 'tweaks' you can try in the [Printing Preferences] / [Advanced]: Image Color Managment; You might try setting it from 'ICM Handled by Host System' (default) to 'ICM Handled by Printer' or even 'ICM Disabled'.
       Again, this is merely a potential way to check to see if this helps get those colors right; and remember your settings before you change them.
      Hope this helps

  • Watermark added to photos - but the colors are faded now!

    Hi!
    Hope somebody can help me, cause I couldn't find this problem in the forum yet.
    I'm using Automator mostly for resizing my photos and to add a watermark. But after the workflow is finished the colors are always quite a bit faded.
    I did the workflow manually with photoshop, but then the photos look normal!
    I list the workflow as follows:
    1. get selected finder items
    2. open
    3. add graphic watermark
    4. scale image (750 px, 72ppi)
    5. render (save as jpeg)
    Hope somebody can help me.
    Thanks.
