Have you configured MadVR to limited range etc?

Yes, as I said, I have both madVR and Kodi configured to limited range. I need madVR configured to limited so that the actual video displays at the right levels, and I need Kodi configured to limited so that the home screen and stuff displays at the right levels. The issue is that whenever the OSD pops up during video playback, both filters are applied on top of each other, resulting in an overly limited and washed out image.

Hi, firstly range on Kodi is irrelevant to an extent as this only changes the gui colour range, you can tell immediately when this is wrong but set this last, MADVR is rendering so KODI colour range is bypassed. Your settings in MADVR are determined by what your GFX card is set to and in turn what you TV is setup to.

here are are the most likely two scenarios.

1. You have your GFX card set to limited and 10 bit.

GFX - LIMITED
MADVR - 0-255
TV - depends on model, set your pc up first then check it with the black clipping pattern, my LG TV is set to "LOW"



2. 8 bit is enough and you dont want to play HDR from your PC

GFX - 4:4:4 FULL RGB
MADVR - 16-235
TV



I am currently using limted myself but I prefer 4:4:4, I was using this to demo 10 bit and HDR stuff which is a bit of a waste of time at the moment. The other reason for using limted is that using 4:4:4 crushes you desktop and there nothing you can do about it without playing with gamms settings and profiles but thats another story.

Use option 1 and get back to us, do it in this order.

Set your GPU to 4:2:0 10 bit, then set MADVR to 0-255, then play the black clipping pattern and check your TV. It will either be correct or too bright If I am right as mine is set to LOW on my LG TV. Last of all load KODI, if the GUI is washed turn 16-235 off.

hope this helps.
