Shot in the dark:
What's your
Color Range? Both in the
source Properties and in
Settings -> Advanced?
- Full uses all 256 possible values (8-bit SDR) or 1024 possible values (10-bit HDR) to describe each subpixel.
- Limited leaves about 5% at each end unused (10% total). It's a holdover from analog TV broadcasts where nothing is ever equal, only arbitrarily close with exponentially increasing cost. So to keep things cheap, the signal was intentionally overdriven slightly, to make sure that black and white at least, were displayed correctly. Digitizing that, needs to keep the slight overdrive, hence the 5% at either end that makes no difference in display.
If you mismatch those two, and your content is slightly away from center (50% gray), then it'll appear to have shifted.
Hey Aaron,
My color range is set to I guess what would be normal;
Color Format: NV12 (8bit, 4:2:0, planes)
Color Space: 709
Color Range: limited/partial
I’ve mismatched these a bit going back and forward with the other options but the video either gets darker or lighter, No change with the color though.
BUT, what I am noticing is that the whites/greys are a bit on the yellow/green side. Basically the whites are not truly white. So I guess the white balance is off??
(I added some extra photos for reference. You can see on the resident evil the original is more on the blue/grey side where obs is more on the green side. And on the Batman photo the whites are slightly yellow/green)
