Video help needed!

Greensprout

Morning,

Hope someone can help..

All the video players on my machine (Real Player, VLC, Windows Media) are playing back very dark.
This has only started happening over the last couple of days.
When playing videos using a browser the playback is fine.. i.e Youtube.

I've searched and struggling to clear the fault.. Any ideas??

Can anyone help??

Why not do a system restore back to a couple of days ago when everything was working fine?

Its possible something has set your global video settings (what videocard are you using?).

You might be able to reset it from within VLC. If you go to Settings->Extended GUI, enable image adjustment and then slide the Hue, Contrast, Brightness, Saturation and Gamma sliders. I think this should reset it globally. I think you can do the same from WMP.

Hope that helps,

Jonny

I've tried a system restore but still the same.

I've gone into these settings in VLC, I can change them but can't get anywhere near the colours they should be..

Help :mad:
