Hi,

WIth XBMC on windows 7, my colors are too green:

On the same PC with OE, colors are fine:

I have a HD4850 graphic card plugged to my new lcd sony KDL-40R470 with a DVItoHDMI adapter (the one supplied with my card).

Do you know where's the problem ?
Probably some sort of filter set up in the windows video card driver. Try going to the AMD control panel and search through the tabs. Turn off anything like 'extra bright' , 'hippie colors' or any other selection that would indicate the drivers adjusts your colors for you. 'Dynamic', 'enhanced' and 'optimisation' are all terms that should be taken with a grain of salt.
I found:

This is the "dynamic contrast" option in my ati driver.

But it was a missing option with my 13.9 driver (I have and HD4850) and i had to downgrade to 12.4 to have this option displayed and be able to desactivate it.

Thanks Smile
