After gloating with 28.0.2 Hot Bug Fix both my ZOOM and MS Teams displayed me in only green colours, I looked like the Hulk....and my background etc...
I stopped back tho 28.0.1 and all appears fine again. Lost my AverMedia PW513 transform settings, easily fixed...
Anyone else experiencing Hulk imagery?

Apologies, 'gloating' should have been 'updating' and 'stopped' should have been 'stepped....
Running on Intel i9 9900XE and GTX 3070To....

I'm having the same problems in Zoom and Restream since updating to v28.0.2. Tried a couple of fixes I found online, but neither of them worked.

Unfortunately the same, I just rolled back to 28.0.1, some minor adjustments to my move transition filter which were 'corrupted', all is working fine again...

I just updated obs and having the same issues, after searching this forum, I found the answer.
Go to OBS setting
select advanced
Go to color range, select "Limited"

Many Thanks verydisco...I just checked my settings and it is set to Full not Limited, i'll update to 28.0.2 tonight after my stream and hopefully all goes well. At least I'll have time to revert back to 0.1 if I'm still having the same issue...
Again Many Thanks for your fix...I'll let you know how I get on....

verydisco could I ask, not being very knowledgeable on video processing, but what is the technical difference between 'Full' and 'Limited' Colour Range and its effect on streaming?
I understand if I'm being a nuisance, curiosity is getting the better of me....
Many Thanks for you help!

I have been using the (old) virtual camera plugin for years and never had this issue. Now OBS 28 has forced me to use the built in virtual camera and and the green distortion effect happens to me in some Teams meetings (not all).

None of the configuration tweaks (change resolution, fps, color range etc.) that float around in this forum has solved this issue permanently. They just seem to be working at first glance because the distortion is triggered by specific conditions that do not happen in every meeting. No idea what the trigger is exactly.

I am going back to the previous version of OBS and back to the virtual camera plugin. I never liked the new virtual camera anyway because it has no autostart.
